Stop focusing on that statement and just call it possible retribution for killing his buddy. Would you take this guys statement as "fact" considering these circumstances?

Nor would I. But if that man hit me then distanced himself from me and surrendered, as has been reported in this case, and I shot him because I was mad and not because I was in danger, I am guilty of murder, am I not?


I swear; some of you libs are stuck in Mississippi in the '50's.

A cop is not gonna execute a dude in broad daylight in a city. He had no motive to unless he felt threatened. But I guess that doesn't fit in with the notion that cops are all secretly racists just waiting to execute harmless black kids.

so him being an armed robbery suspect is irrelevant?


Yes, it is irrelevant to the shooting.

So we beat up the cops for not releasing details of an investigation into the shooting death by one of their cops and when the mob forces them to release the details they also release the details of an investigation into a robbery that led to the shooting and we yell "Conspiracy!!" The mob is being very hypocritical.


Yep. Its hard for people to admit they jumped to conclusions for 2/3 of those that did so, the other 1/3 are apologetically biased politicos who have zero desire for the truth if it doesnt fit nicely in with their political ideals.

Ok, disregard my previous post. You're not mentally capable of understanding my point. Continue on in your ignorance.

Jackson said Wilson, along with other officers, was called to the area after a 911 call reporting a "strong-arm" robbery just before noon. He said a dispatcher gave a description of the robbery suspect, and Wilson, who had been assisting on another call, was sent to investigate. Wilson, a six-year veteran of the police department, encountered Brown just after 12:01 p.m., with a second officer arriving three minutes later, Jackson said.

Police have said Brown was shot after an officer encountered him and another man on the street. They say one of the men pushed the officer into his squad car, then physically assaulted him in the vehicle and struggled with the officer over the officer's weapon. At least one shot was fired inside the car before the struggle spilled onto the street, where Brown was shot multiple times, according to police.


If this is correct the officer should have nothing to be concerned about. Although if this is true I see no reason for the police to clam up and not release the autopsy report.

Disagree, considering it is probably relevant to the whole reason the confrontation took place. Obviously still speculative, but considering he matched the description of the armed robbery suspect, it would stand to reason that is why Wilson approached him in the first place.

Would it not?

This is very suscpicious. If he did just commit a crime on tape, you really think the police wouldnt have stated from day one that Brown was a suspect in a violent robbery???


Maybe they were wanting to make sure they had the correct person before they released something, and then to find out later what they released was wrong. Maybe they didn't get the video until a day later. You don't know, and I don't know why. Both things I pointed out are plausible.

You are trying to seem unbiased but its fairly clear you are not.

Yep. They also were dealing with rioting and looting at the time. That can kind of switch your focus.

Everything leading up to the shooting is relevant. May not justify the shooting but it is clearly relevant.

I wonder if black people, deep down, ever get tired of having to pretend to believe a lie in order to support their "cause"?

Trayvon wasn't a saint. He was a criminal who had been dismissed from school at least twice.

This kid was not a saint. He had participated in a robbery only hours before he was stopped.

And, 96% of blacks voted twice for the biggest fraud of all, Barack Obama.

Memo to Black America: If you want other people to pay attention to any legitimate gripes you may have, try taking the high road for once. Propping up faux victims doesn't help your cause.

This, just as Brown's lack of a criminal record, is immaterial to me.

Especially when the Ferguson police has a recent history of covering up the actions of their officers.

If brown assaulted someone during a robbery and was identified as the guy who did it, the police , after making contact and a incident occurs,can shoot someone even while they fleeing. Courts have ruled on this exact thing before..,
And browns little friend is no longer a credible witness.
Also the officer has a spotless 6 yr record.
But we still hAvnt seen all the evidence. But as of right now, the cop looks like he did not break the law.
