Another ring is opening.

quote:

Police sources tell us Brown`s Grandmother, Pearlie Gordon, along with Brown`s Cousin Tony Petty, were selling t-shirts and other Michael Brown merchandise.

A police report describes a car pulling up and several people getting out. One of those people, was reported to be Michael Brown`s Mom, Lesley McSpadden. A witness described McSpadden yelling ‘You can`t sell this s%$&” One of the relatives, who was selling, reportedly demanded McSpadden show a document proving she had a patent.

The police report says that`s when an unidentified person with McSpadden assaulted Petty so violently that it resulted in a 911 call. A witness tells Fox 2 that the weapon was a metal pipe or pole. The suspect reportedly struck Petty in the face. Medics then took him to Christian Northeast Hospital. The witness said the assault suspect grabbed merchandise and a box of cash believed to contain about $1,400.

To be fair, I would be pissed if someone were to sell shirts profiting from my child's death. Doubt I would assault them with a pipe, though.

Sounds like a mess.

I have a feeling they are not the only one's trying to make a buck from all this tragedy though.

The mom is only pissed because she wants to be the only one to sell merchandise. Hence her asking for a patent.

The woman selling the stuff asked Brown's mom (not named Brown, as usual) for the patent.

But yeah, after Trayvon's mom (not named Martin) copyrighted his name, it's hard to see this as anything but a proprietary dispute.

Pretty sure Trayvon Martin's mom did/tried to do the same thing...

What does it say about your parenting skills when the first thought after your child's death is how you can make a profit from it?

Besides the obviously ridiculous claim of a patent on a t-shirt, you know someone in that group of cretins has trademarked "hands up don't shoot"
