From the article:

“Brown, an African-American who was days away from starting college, was shot to death in what police said was a struggle for the officer’s gun. No one has disputed that Brown was unarmed. But witnesses said the 18-year-old was shot as he tried to distance himself and raised his hands into the air.”

And the cop just gunned him down like a dog in the street.........right.

Anyone else notice there is no talk of a toxicology report on the deceased?

Same here.

The bloodthirsty mob still demands blood. There’s a pretty good chance things will get hot again tonight.

No mention in the CNN account of the fact that Darren Wilson is one of the six Black policemen on that 53 person force. They forgot to mention that. So far, only Breitbart has managed to post a picture of Officer Wilson. This is another disgraceful example of the media covering up the facts that were bound to come out anyway.

I think it takes weeks to come back. I’m sure they did one.

This news conference right now is a farce. The officials are playing dumb about the fact that Mike Brown had committed a strongarm robbery right before getting shot by the Cop. Everyone in the media knows about it; everyone but the investigators up there spewing forth.

Darren Wilson was just one of 53 officers in a small-town police department until his encounter with a unarmed 18-year-old last Saturday on a street in Ferguson, Missouri

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nice to see the idiots at CNN are still going with that “unarmed” narrative.

Just like Trayvon was “unarmed”.

Well to be fair... Brown was “unarmed” when he was throttling the neck of the QT cashier just moments before he tried to murder a cop.

A police report indicates that Brown was a “primary suspect” in the robbery that took place the day he was fatally shot. According to the report, Brown got physical with the convenience story employee over a box of cigars worth $48.99 he was trying to steal.

Just as in the Trayvon Martin case they are white washing this 'boy' making like he was a meek mild 100 pound weakling, but that isn't the case:


These surveillance images were taken at a convenience store 10 min. before

The documents said four to six shots were fired.

Bullshiite. I don't believe that the Ferguson PD can't count cartridges. How many were in Wilson's clip at the start of his shift? How many were left after the shooting? Then that's the number after you do the math. Not some 'estimate'.

Do you know for sure if he’s black?

Are we sure the Darren Wilson involved in fact black?

I don’t think he is. Just a coincidence of names by most accounts I’ve seen.

Any “prior record” is largely irrelevant. He was caught on surveillance video strong arm robbing a convenience store minutes before his violent confrontation with law enforcement and subsequent death. The liberal media narrative crumbles like the fabrication it is.

"How many were in Wilson's clip at the start of his shift?"

Zero.

If someone broke into my house, and struggled with me to take one of my weapons and after I fired off a round, the perp ran outside - and if II shot him 4-6 times as he was 35 feet from my door running away…. I would be charged with murder (or at minimum manslaughter).

Why should that be any different for someone wearing a badge? Are the cops absolved from the same laws that govern the rest of us?

If the perp went for the cop’s gun, does that still give the cop absolution to shoot a perp running away while unarmed?

Whatever happened to tazers, batons or mace?

Yes, exactly.

Was it four shots or was it six shots?

Hey, I've got an idea for a movie script, the dialog goes something like this:

I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?
