Well if this is true it's news to me. The last I heard (and granted I'm traveling this week) the kid had his hands up in surrender and was shot at a considerable distance. It was expressed in such a way that I had come to believe this was almost an indisputable fact. I apologize and admit I'm wrong if new credible evidence negates what I had initially believed.

That's the problem in this investigation. Someone with no credibility made the claim of hands up execution and the nations media and black community ran with it.
However the facts in the case as they have been released which has been terribly executed still show what appears to be a justifiable homicide on the part of the cops. The autopsies proved at least to me the hands up execution did not happed. All physical evidence and even some eye witness testimony shows Brown the aggressor that took 6 shots to put down.

Fair enough. The rush to judgement has been insane in this case. If the cop is proven to be criminal, he should be treated like one. But the media and folks on the internet have been irresponsible here. Example:
First stories I heard were he was running away and shot in the back at a distance. Now that evidence contradicts that, the line is "but hewas 30 feet away!!!! How could he be a threat?"
Well, IF another version I've heard is true, a man charging at me from 10 yards can be pretty threatening indeed, especially if he had just fractured my orbital bone and tried to take my gun.
Don't know what version (if either) is true, but I'll wait to decide whether to be outraged. Wish others would do the same.
