The Gateway Pundit can now confirm from two local St. Louis sources that police Officer Darren Wilson suffered facial fractures during his confrontation with deceased 18 year-old Michael Brown. Officer Wilson clearly feared for his life during the incident that led to the shooting death of Brown. This was after Michael Brown and his accomplice Dorian Johnson robbed a local Ferguson convenience store.
Local St. Louis sources said Wilson suffered an “orbital blowout fracture to the eye socket.” This comes from a source within the District Attorney’s office and confirmed by the St. Louis County Police.

Like a couple have already said. They are probably private messaging each other waiting for their next moment to come on and spout more left wing garbage.
Someone told me Uncle Chip got banned , but I;m guessing the others are waiting in the shadows for their next moment, just like when we have a warm winter storm and the libs spout global warming and then disappear when the weather turns cold. Hard to tell people global warming when 5 ft of snow has fallen. Maybe that is why they called climate change instead, the crafty libs
“...better brush up on the lingo then...mucho importante que estudiaremos espanol, toute suite...”
I saw what you did there! ROFL
Thx. That was deeply satisfying.
The photo of Wilson at the bottom of the page (next to Brown's), is taken from when he received a police commendation back in February:
From the video photos, I'd be hard-pressed to figure out who those officers are. The video is very blurred, and any injuries to either one of their faces wouldn't be apparent. Not sure if there's any other photos out there that are clearer. These photos are immediately after the incident, and any injuries may not even be visible yet, ie., black and bluing.
Absolutely. With sensible compression, full-HD 24/7/365 video can fit on a 1TB drive for $50. Cell-phone style cameras are tiny. I’m surprised nobody is making a minuscule clip-on one that you just have to insert a small battery and 64GB MicroSD card in, letting you record continuously for a month and costing $1/day to run.
Your last sentence. If not we would have been the minority now!!!
BREAKING: Another Officer related shooting just happened in North St. Louis city. (local media is reporting and oozing with joy) - Will post link as soon as I can find one.
Agreed.
Better than nothing. Hence the term I used: LAST DITCH EFFORT....your goal is not to shoot legs, it is to get rounds downrange quick and in an emergency because in a firefight firepower usually wins.
We are talking about <1% of firefights where this method is used mind you. It is about as rare as training to chamber your semi-automatic with your teeth/feet because you are greivously wounded and you need to reload and charge your firearm or clear an FTE/FTF. Tactics: Know them, train them, use them.
Want to watch a badass? Google "Instructor Zero". Great CCW and tactical pistol/cqb/lde instructor.
BREAKING: Officer-Involved shooting in north St. Louis

Media is having orgasms.
Yes. That is why it is ridiculous for politicians to tell you what size magazine you need.
I'm getting ready to take a CCW class. I hope I remember this if I'm not told. Great advice! Thanks!
Ferguson protesters were pumping their fists and chanting:
“Black Power!”....
Chris Hayes from FOX Channel 2 in St. Louis reported the chants ‘changed’ from, ....“Hands Up, Don’t Shoot!” to “Hands Up, Fight Back!”
At least it can gather fragments of an event, and lots of audio, enough to establish much of an incident’s timeline. In this case, it would have at least recorded the perp walking down the center of the street, and much of the ensuing conversation/yelling/screaming/shooting audio.
Hemispherical video wouldn’t be hard to add, capturing 360 degree. Complicated to view, and subject to annoying distortions, but again enough to establish much of what happened and strongly exclude other imputed story lines.
Not necessarily. Think about it.
Like Rush Limbo says, if you place a cow pasture in front of DNC-asses and their media commierates, they will ALWAYS step right into the middle of the cake!!!
“Tactics: Know them, train them, use them. “
For each his own. I am NEVER going to practice getting my first shot at the legs.
What many have trouble comprehending is that, often, “shoot to wound” and “shoot to kill” overlap. Not like there’s clear dividing lines for the regions.
