A Witness Conversation Unknowingly Captured at the Scene of the Ferguson Shooting is a Game-Changer
IJReview ^ | August 17, 2014 | Ed Itor

A A previously unnoticed detail in a background conversion of a video taken minutes after the Ferguson shooting could change the course of the investigation into Mike Brown’s death.

The original video poster appears sympathetic to the narrative that Mike Brown was shot unarmed with his hands in the air. But he unknowingly picks up conversation between a man who saw the altercation and another neighbor.

#1 How’d he get from there to there? #2 Because he ran, the police was still in the truck – cause he was like over the truck {crosstalk} #2 But him and the police was both in the truck, then he ran – the police got out and ran after him {crosstalk} #2 Then the next thing I know he doubled back toward him cus - the police had his gun drawn already on him – #1. Oh, the police got his gun #2 The police kept dumpin on him, and I’m thinking the police kept missing – he like – be like – but he kept coming toward him {crosstalk} #2 Police fired shots – the next thing I know – the police was missing #1 The Police? #2 The Police shot him #1 Police? #2 The next thing I know … I’m thinking … the dude started running … (garbled something about “he took it from him”) This is terribly important because if Mike Brown had been shot, and he advanced towards the cop instead of surrendering, it would substantiate the narrative that the policeman shot in self-defense due to the fact that he was being threatened with severe bodily harm.

This corroborates an account of the event given by a friend of Officer Darren Wilson: Well, then Michael takes off and gets to be about 35 feet away. And, Darren’s first protocol is to pursue. So, he stands up and yells, “Freeze!” Michael and his friend turn around. And Michael taunts him… And then all the sudden he just started bumrushing him. He just started coming at him full speed. And, so he just started shooting. And, he just kept coming. And, so he really thinks he was on something.”

And unless we stand up against this crap, it will be the death of this society and of a lot of people. The truth does matter. The truth is worth fighting for.

The number I saw was 70 shot, including 9 dead by GSW.

Surprisingly, the YTD death toll is on track to be the lowest in at least the past six years.

Per the independent heyjackass.com website "Illustrating Chicago Values".

I have a Glock 26 9mm, though I usually carry a mouse gun (Keltec p-32) because of weight and size.

I think a 9mm would do fine if you emptied your mag into a guy.

There have been some reports that the final shot hit the perp in the forehead. My mouse gun would work fine in such a shot.

Exactly. If you are 6.4 and 300lbs, you are never “UNARMED”.

"Must not have liked what the first one said, so they have to doctor one up.

Is Bill Clinton's Arkansas ME still around? Maybe they can pull him out of retirement, or forge his signature posthumously, otherwise.

Anybody who rushes at a cop who has his gun trained on them and shouting “Freeze”... Is going to be shot. And rightfully so. No one— cop or civilian— is required to first try to win a wrestling match for their gun. When an attacker knowingly charges an armed person it can be assumed that the stakes are for the weapon. It is a deadly threat.

What's important at this point is that enough rational people see this for what it is. That would be black race baiters and their enablers are demanding that blacks not be held to the same standard of abiding by the law that everyone else is.

I was appalled when I read that police aren't supposed to shoot looters or anyone involved in robberies when they're fleeing after being told to stop.

The local civil rights whores and the Justice Department now too are unhappy the robbery video was released. Wonder why? Now they will be really unhappy if this is proven correct and released! Their choirboy is looking worse every day.

Sorry, I don't believe the officer accidently missed that many times at comparatively close range.

Since the riots are a racist thieving irrational response by mobs of criminals, it shouldn’t be surprising that the racist smears of Officer Wilson are without foundation.

There’s no question there is an aspect of self defense on the cop’s part. Early on a hospital spokesman had already said they treated the cop for injuries to his face. There can’t be any argument that Brownie threw at least one, probably more, punches, at the cop while the cop was still in or by his cruiser. Once punched in the face the cop has the right to assume that any subsequent move on the hoodlum’s part, is threatening. And there is no mention whatsoever of any bullet wounds in the dumbasses back.

Yeah, the dude was huge. He was a deadly weapon if he got his hands on the cop.

>>A white cop shot a black kid, and that’s all the fuel the MSM, the race pimps, and the dept. of “just-us” clan need to stoke the fire.<<

There was a picture of the cop on the internet. He was also black. Not sure if true.
