Snip
Despite holding off Thursday, Ferguson police still decided to release the tape Friday over the Justice Department's objections, according to CNN.

Here’s the thing.

Still pictures captured from the video have been on the internet since early Wednesday.

It was only when the full video went to MSM that the whining started.

I hope all the militarized cops out there remember what the feds are trying to do to one of their own. This ain’t some neighborhood watchman. This is a real cop. Maybe it will open their eyes as to who the real enemy is.

Excellent point. Real police should be on the side of taxpaying Americans they are supposed to serve instead of attaching themselves to an increasingly isolated, corrupt and oppressive State.

And? That means nothing if the police dept isn’t trained as a whole cohesive unit at the same time & by the same trainers at the same place.
There’s a few more jobs in the military than “citizen assassin”, there’s everything from avionics tech to supply to cook to dental assistant.
And now you’re telling me the complaint isn’t about military equipment it’s that people had the audacity to serve in the military that’s the problem?

Either way, I’m still waiting on anyone to tell me which military base local cops are trained at to be a military force that will be “taking over America”.

The female, who was some sort of govt attorney(i.e, an “affirmative action” beneficiary) was moaning about how unsafe it was now for her son(s) in light of Thugvon and now this.

It is breathtaking how allegedly "intelligent" people can believe that young black men are "in danger" from the police in a country that buries 110 young black men every week at the hands of other young black men.

“The autopsy and forensic evidence will further tell the true story.”

Robin Williams’ autopsy results were public in what, 36 hours?

Where’s St. Brown’s?

So it looks like there was a cover up by the Obama administration to encourage racial hatred and violence.

FEDs/DOJ/Holder didn’t want the tape made public, because it blew up the narrative the Media and FEDs had been relying on most of the week.

As soon as it was released, the Media & Feds had to back off of the story.

Ironically, while all that was going on and some in the Media, etc., were trying to claim the tape was photoshopped, the perp’s parter-in-crime was confessing that he was with the guy when they robbed the store.

They are using the same game plan as they did to make a scapegoat out of Zimmerman.

How many were trained? Trained to do what? When were they trained?
Was the whole police department trained in assassination of citizen techniques?

Our K9 officer has taken training for his drug-sniffing dog at several military bases.
I guess that means therefore my whole police department is a threat to the citizenry because of our K9 officer’s military drug-sniffing training.

Brown was only 18.

If he has a long record, it would be a juvenile one, and is likely sealed.
