If he is confirmed black.. Hopefully this discussion turns towards the militarization of out police force and the use of force/aggression at the start of all interaction.


Some here have been trying to make it about this all along. Race is just to tasty for some on both sides to not bite.

Agree... Kind of in a weird situation as the info contradicts on multiple ends.

Again, I would have hoped if it wasn't the Darren you have found that they would have had a disclaimer to the public that there are two Darrens in the metro area.

But they have fricked up everything else, why not this.

Hell yeh


I did not like the whole military style of force, but that is a seperate issue. The issue to begin with was against the white man. That is what got all this started. Now that he is not white Do Not just say oh well, it's cool,move on. bullshite. F U for blaming the white man.. F then all for this bullshite

Race got this started, and the miltary action was laterand seperate

the officer being white or black is irrelevant now. the ENTIRE issue was the initial stop. it is clear now that it wasn't based on race

Well we don't know that yet... The initial report from his friend, which is now in question thanks to him being involved in a robbery, is that they were told to get out of the street and didn't. The officer reversed and confronted them about not moving.

A few points:
Darren Wilson (the black one) started working with SLPD in 1996.
The report says Darren Wilson (we assume the black one) was answering another call in Ferguson. Why would he be answering a call in Ferguson? Serious question.

Dude in the pic is Michael Brown. The footwear is very distinctive.

hell, regardless, there WAS an incident and if it wasn't him, he matched the description of the suspect

now, the shooting is still likely bullshite (unless there was a physical struggle. yet to be determined), but that's another issue

the people freaking out who wanted immediate action had NO COMPREHENSION of how this would come back to bite them in the arse (possibly literally)

I still blame police. If the information that they had all along had been released immediately, we don't have 4 days of protesting and violence.

Wait...someone clear this up for me.

We know the shooting officer was black and that Mike Brown assaulted a store clerk?

Is that the latest?

I'm more a cookie person myself.

How come the robbery wasn't in the anon release tape of the police logs?
