The Assistant (Police) Chief took him to the hospital, his face all swollen on one side,” said the insider. “He was beaten very severely.”


His buddies probably punched him in the face a couple of times to help with his story.

I know...the source is probably a cop. But the facial fracture is a verifiable fact. It leads me to believe with great certainty Wilson's face was fractured. We don't know the whole story but it's not like a cop is stupid enough to try to put forth a narrative like that that if his face wasn't really fricked up. There will be x-rays, testimony of doctors, nurses, etc.


the thing is we don't know if the cop was involved in this story. at all.

We already saw this department try their hand at misinformation with the theft from the convenience store. they at a minimum misled there, if not out right lied. why would this be different? if it even was them.

Ratings.

I just spoke with one of my customers who lives there. I asked him if it was as bad as the media says it is.

From what he told me, it's being extremely sensationalized. He said there were maybe a group of 50 people protesting aggressively, and when they dispersed, they proceeded to loot, set things on fire, etc... The remainder of the people seen were just spectating.

He said he has zero issue getting around town, and very rarely, sees any major disturbances as he's going about his day to day business around town.

Take that fwiw.

I'm simply saying that a cop could lie about "he went for his gun". That could be subjective. "He charged him". Again, subjective. "His face was broken" on the other hand....there's no way to lie about that. There will be medical records to verify. It doesn'treally matter who the source is. I'm saying I'm confident Wilson's face was fractured b/c it's difficult to lie about that....unless you're a complete idiot.

Because it most likely isn't true.

It all depends.

We all saw the Baden autopsy sketch. The msn may have been shot six times but how many of the six shots would have stopped a 300 pound man running at you? A big man who had already broken your face.

The arm wounds would not have and if the two shots to the head were 5 and 6 as reported then it's possible the cop had to do what he did.

Brown got justice. But since justice is in the eye of the beholder...nothing changes. "Behold, I will send them great delusion that they will believe a lie". (Biblical) People are losing it; and the manipulators are using it.

Early on they said the officer was "treated for facial injuries", you were too busy convicting the officer.

I know they did. I just think they would have said that a fracture orbital bone was part of those facial injuries. I also think that lady that called the radio station claiming to be friend's with Wilson's wife/girlfriend would have mentioned that. Plus I don't really trust unnamed sources. You were too busy convicting Brown to give this claim any skepticism.

yes, if his face is in fact fractured. But it could always be done after the fact.

But who knows for sure, really only a handful of people? We will just have to wait and see on this one.

So what youre saying is evidence won't matter to you ......

This is what i dont get, im a white conservative but if the facts show the cop was at fault and there was a cover up on top of that, i will be the first one calling for the people involved to pay...... Why isn't it like that on both sides?

"Well, no matter if he was a danger, shooting him six times was unjustified"

My questions to you are: have you ever fired a weapon in a 'combat' situation?
A semi-automatic pistol such as a Glock?
Have you ever been attacked in such a situation AFTER having had the hell beat out of you?

If you were attacked by someone 6'4", 240 pounds who had just kicked your arse, and you shot him and he kept coming, would you continue to shoot?

Firing a weapon in a combat situation, unless you've been in constant combat, your reflexes take over.

Three rapid taps with a semi-automatic pistol takes about a second. If the assailant kept coming, another three shots, another second.

Until you have been there it's easy to question how someone shot six times.

If you've ever been in such a situation, it's not hard to comprehend.
