Seriously - doesn’t anyone else see the yellow tape strung up all around the street? This was supposed to have been filmed 30 seconds after he was shot? Man alive, those cops all arrived and got that tape up faster than anything I could have imagined..... this is utter bullshit. She did not tape this right after he was shot

That too.
My stepdaughter once started with the baggy pants thing.
I called it the “hick third world farmer with a load in his pants” look.
She stopped with the saggy baggy pants.

"Will it matter? I mean, realistically? With the White-racist-Black-victim narrative? With so many wanting to pronounce the cop guilty even before all the facts are out? "

It BETTER MATTER.

Otherwise why should anyone follow the law? Why not survival of those most willing and able to kill over those who are less willing and able?

That's how close to the edge the Professional Race Industry is pushing this.

>> The cop probably lost it in the intense situation and fired on a fleeing/surrendering suspect.

You don’t know that. I wouldn’t got that far to judge him as that. It wasn’t you there. The corner said the shots were through the front of the body not in his back as fleeing.

50 years ago if you had committed robbery, then punched a cop in the face so hard you broke his eye socket, then tried to take his gun away, you would be dead and no one would even have noticed or cared.

Yea we have all heard that line about cops being military bla bla from the Holders, Obama;s Sharpton and Jackson but now would you address the robbery, the assault on the store owner, the assault on the cop or the rioting or even the DDems playing this up to get their votes out.

This town is finished. It was already deteriorating rapidly. Now the businesses still operating will move out. Town government will be replaced with corrupt race hustlers. Most of the remaining whites will move out. It will be a microcosm of Detroit after 1967.

He scuffled with the officer. The cop probably lost it in the intense situation and fired on a fleeing/surrendering suspect.

There is no evidence to back up that assertion. It is much more likely, applying common sense and the limited amount of evidence, that the Gentle Giant rushed at the cop, and the cop did the only thing he could to have a chance of seeing another day.

Your assertion that the cop "lost it", is very unlikely, and has no backing. Your assertion that he fired on a fleeing or surrendering suspect goes against the one piece of hard evidence we now have, in addition to going against common sense.

Sometimes, in fact usually, it is wrong to split the difference between two stories and assume the truth lies somewhere in the middle. In this case, the witnesses are probably lying, or embellishing, or simply fabricating the whole thing from rumors. And in all likelihood, the officer's version of events will essentially be a comprehensive and fully accurate transcript of what actually happened.

Ridicule often works where reason fails.

I don’t think the wounds on the arms are consistent with having them raised in air.

One of the hand wounds is consistent with being shot from the back while running away, but it could also be something else, like hands raised above head. This seems consistent with witness statements. Everything will come out at trial, but the damage will be long done.

Am going to give you the benefit of the doubt but am smelling BS also. After all that has been viewed and the information has come out very quickly; why decide this is not good for the Police Officer based on two witnesses on a video?

Best to wait until the evidence is all revealed...

Which should be forthcoming since they’re are probably 300 feds, cops, and locals investigating this.

It’s a shooting, and with the amount of physical evidence, it should not be too complex to figure out what happened and if the cops version is consistent with that evidence.

Why?

Anytime two people say they saw you do something bad/illegal, it's not good.

Pretty obvious now that the kid was bull rushing the police offer after first GOING FOR HIS GUN.
Not sure what anyone thinks the officer could have done differently.

I can’t imagine a sane human being assaulting a police officer including going for their weapon. I just don’t get the mindset that someone would attempt such a thing.

One of these witnesses is Dorian Johnson.....Brown’s partner in crime, in the robbery a half hour before the shooting.

That hurts his credibility, and he certainly isn’t impartial.

BTW, did Johnson hang around for the police report, or run away with the cigar sleeves? And why hasn’t he been arrested for the robbery?
