Was the window up or down with Joe McKnight outside the vehicle’s passenger door? If the window was down, and vigorous conversation ensued without any attempt to enter the vehicle, that’s one thing. Powder burn pattern will give an indication of how far McKnight was from the muzzle of the weapon. Ballistic trajectory will give attitude of the body relative to the weapon.

If the window were shattered by McKnight to gain entry to the vehicle, that is evidence of heightened aggression, possibly rage. If shots were fired through a raised window hitting McKnight, that goes against the driver. It’s all part of the physical evidence supporting or contradicting statements by the shooter and witnesses.

I frickin’ knew it. The initial reports were all favoring “the witnesses” (in other words, the ballplayer’s buddies that were with him). We were told that Gasser pulled the guy out of his car (like this 54 year old guy who looks like he weighs about 160 soaking wet) is going to pull a former football player out of his car. Then we were told that McKnight was merely standing when he was shot. Then we were told that Gasser shot him additional times after he was down and said, “I told you not to f*** with me!” So far, the witness reports are all full of crap.

And he was released without being charged, that’s how much of a psycho he is.

The witnesses are most likely McKnight’s buddies riding with him. Door #2 is people from the neighborhood seeing the “need” to protect a brother. Whoever it is, they LIED. Charge them with False Official Statement.

The “witness” should be under arrest for deliberately making a false statement.

Apparently the window was down. A driver belted into his seat is very vulnerable to someone next to the vehicle. Getting out of one's car and approaching the other is the only indication of aggression I need.

It is not an indicator of a desire to calmly discuss things.

Note to other individuals who might try to intimidate and/or assault white folks when you're angry. We're not taking it any more. Stop and think before you let anger short circuit your thinking and subsequently, your life.

More than likely McKnight was at Glasser’s car threatening to kick his ass and was reaching in to hit him or making an attempt to get Glasser’s door open when he was shot. That will probably be the truth that comes out.
