Pretty crazy. On the local news last night they were interviewing the forensics guy who is doing the case and he said after autopsy they will know exactly if the kid had his hands up when he was shot. I knew they could tell a lot but didn't realize that much.

Like another poster said, the cops will try and cover their own arse while all the looters try and rationalize their actions.


I would only draw one distinction. Yes, cops will lie to cover their arse. The witnesses/family will lie to support their case that it was unjustified. And the looters (who are separate and apart from the Browns and their supporters) will do as you said and try to rationalize their actions.

Reading some of these tweets just makes me sad to live in this country, the amount of uneducated white hating savages we have that are just waiting to riot is amazing. They are so easily manipulated, have seen a lot talking about this is how to get shite done and their people got them civil rights this way by rioting and looting. Theses people's ancestors would be ashamed at the struggles they went through for what they have made out of their lives with those freedoms they fought so hard for.

They get taken down. Chick claims she pregnant.


Wasn't her claiming it. Was people around her saying it.

But in their minds they're making them proud.

It'll be interesting to see what happens after the officer's name is released today.

Does that mean I better tell them not to play/walk/ride on our street for fear of being shot by a cop?


Warn them about getting run over since that is more common. Tell them if a cop does tell them to do something to do it.

Yeah, that makes it sound like you're real educated about the situation.

I meant the chick with her. Sorry, should have clarified.

Not that I believe either one.

The walking down the street is the main issue that started this.

Is this a residential street or a main thoroughfare?

Is it known for sure the cop was white?

People and looters on twitter are idiots. Some of that shite is shocking. They are all different people from the family and supporters though. It's just going to get worse too I'm afraid. I think the good reverend gets his boots on the ground today in STL and I'm sure that's just going to rile the idiots up even more.

One of her friends says it then all the sudden she says (after laying on her stomach for 5-7 sec) "I'm 6 mo pregnant!"

So what happens if the cop does turn out to be black? That will be an interesting situation.

I saw a lady on the ground. She was on her stomach. Video is poor. I couldn't even tell if she was pregnant. That shouldn't be hard to establish if it really needed to be. I'm more interested in this shite just ending and that's not going to help even if it was necessary to do.




I'm sorry dude but i'm not just going to let you walk away from this that easy.
You specifically claimed that the pregnant woman was slammed to the ground by police. You clearly saw that the video did not show how she got on the ground but decided to use this terminology to paint the police in a bad light.

So if a cop comes and tells you to get off the computer right now, you're just going to say "Yes sir." Or if you're buying milk at the store and a cop tells you to put the fricking milk back you're going to say "Yes sir." Since when is it ok for cops to prevent people from doing things that are otherwise lawful? No. I will teach my kids how to properly handle police officers by educating them on their rights. Oh, and the first thing they do is start video taping the entire conversation on their iphone and let the cop know it. Usually once they know it is being recorded it's amazing how much differently they act. All of a sudden the constitution does matter then.

Thanks for the link. I take it she's claiming it as well. Hadn't read that. I was referring to the video itself. People shouting "That's a pregnant woman." or something along those lines.
