I don't believe that after five plus shots, he was trying to "charge" and would have posed any significant risk at that point. Hell, I would understand more if officer Wilson shot him in the car as he was allegedly grabbing for his gun. That's definitely a "shoot to kill" time.

Wilson tried to shoot him in the car when Brown was attacking him The gun jammed because Brown had his hand on it preventing it from firing. ... And depending on the caliber of weapon & type of rounds, people can definitely continue charging if they aren't hit in the head or heart, which if you look at the evidence did not happen until the end. ...Years ago, I knew cops who carried 2 firearms - the one issued & their own which was always either a .357 or .44 mag. for that very reason. Getting hit by a round from either one of those caliber weapons anywhere on the body will stop someone pretty much immediately most of the time, if not kill them, depending where hit. ... Idk if that is standard practice anymore in most departments.

What makes this sad event such a disaster is that millions of people have absolutely no clue what happened outside of officially released information and have formed solid opinions.

It sounds like you need to read up on the facts because it doesn't really matter what you "believe."
DW's story of what happened was backed up by forensics and several witnesses.

He tried to shoot him from in the car but Brown's hand was preventing the gun from firing. And someone as big as Brown could easily take a few non-lethal shots from a 9mm and keep moving like nothing ever happened.
Another thing to keep in mind through all of this is the entire ordeal from start to finish took a little over 90 seconds. Let that sink in. 90 seconds in which about a million micro-decisions were being made on the fly by both parties.

How did Brown's blood spray in the car and Wilson's cloths? Looks like one witness was taken care of last night. 5 more to go.
