If the physical evidence points to Brown charging the police officer, it’s going to present a very difficult choice for a lot of people ...

Naw, that's easy. Yes, he was at the convenience store but was only laying upon hands to the non-Christian owner. He was only walking in the middle of the street to explain to his wayward friend the good in walking the straight and narrow in this life. He tried to lay hands upon the racist officer but the actions were misunderstood. As he sadly turned his back to the officer and peacefully walked away, gunfire erupted. Slowly, the gentle unarmed angel turned around and held out his arms to explain and beg understanding.

Physics and the position of the body (face down, pointed at where the officer was standing) after absorbing six rounds would seem to indicate that Brown was moving towards the officer, and doing so with decent momentum, when he went down.

If thats the case, I don’t know how you get around that from a legal perspective. Without the prosecutor trying for jury nullification. Which is, I believe, a prosecutorial abuse. But was still attempted with George Zimmerman.

Unfortunately the facts don’t matter if they aren’t consistent with the default position of the Ferguson Lynch Mob.

No mention of, I should have been there as a father while you were growning up instead of being absent all these years. No this is admitting your failure as a human being. There problem is just that, thier problem and failures as parents and embracing the thug lifestyle is the root cause

If he be so poor, who paid for that fancy casket and all the flowers and the poster photo’s, they cost money to get made...or was everything DONATED...

I believe I saw the father with a toddler in his arms so he must have another family...I doubt if the parents were ever married...but that is nothing new in today world..does any one yet know if he had sisters or brothers????

what ever...glad he finally got laid to rest...

But it was made out to be the work of those who hated him because he was gay. Who knows the name of the gay killer? Millions know the name of the gay victim but no one ever hears the name of a gay murderer...unless he is a WHITE gay murderer who kills a black and so in the closet that the news media never learns he is gay. On the other side people hear the name of a white killer even he is really nonwhite (George Zimmerman) and in reality defending himself from an attacker but not the name of a white victim...unless he is a GAY white victim and the pretense can be made that he was killed only because he was gay. The so called news media in this country is nothing more than a propaganda outlet.

no kidding???

all from the same mom and dad or a variety?

I’ve not heard the MSM mention them once, and did they all sit together at the funeral?? did they even attend the funeral??? Ive never seen them introduced as Michael Brown’s sister or brother during these two weeks of nonsense.

wow...seven...that is a surprise...

wish someone would publish Mike Brown’s obit, so we can see just how many mom and dad’s he had, since Tennessee Nana said he had seven siblings
