The tight ends had better watch out. He’s coming for them.

Ferguson schools likely make you maintain a certain grade point average to play sports. Being all RACIST and stuff.

He was an aspiring gansta rapper:

What a surprise! Next thing, you're gonna tell me he intended to marry one of the mothers of some of his kids, and was working to get his GED.

I think if is sickening that Gov. Nixon deplored the “besmirching of the victim”. First of all, he wasn’t a victim, he was a criminal who had just committed a crime, and to people of normal thinking, releasing the information/video about said crime verified that fact and should have defused the issue. Instead, we get this “gentle giant teen” crap, said gentle giant was 300 lbs, 6’ 4”, and 19, and with a “gangsta” background, and some are indicating he has a juvenile record. I hope the Ferguson police have a toxicology test going separately on his remains, as I wouldn’t trust Holder’s autopsy report.

All I can tell you is what will never be known. That’s his prior record. Juvi or not, I don’t care, but unless someone hacks it and posts it in the next two days, it will never be seen. In public or in the coming show trial.

The local autopsy will show he was shot with one bullet to the head.

The family autopsy will show one bullet to the head and five to the torso.

The Federal autopsy will show one bullet to the head, five to the torso, four to the back of the head, six to the back of the torso, and one in each buttock.

But even he is limited. Haven't heard much about his investigation into the Trayvon Martin death. Apparently there wasn't any evidence.

So maybe this situation will end up the same way.

Here is hoping that there is still Justice in the Justice Department. And if they try to do anything funny, the press will be on it.

They’re trying to paint him as the “Big Mike” character from the Sandra Bullock movie “The Blind Side”.

The cigars are to be emptied of tobacco and filled with weed. That’s the thang they do with them.

“It should go without saying but vaguely intimidating photos of you do not give the police carte blanche to gun you down, and we no longer live in a country where it is OK to sentence black men to death for the crime of petty theft.”

*The cop did NOT shoot him down because of the “petty theft”. He was shot because he had already ASSAULTED a police officer, grabbed for the cops gun - enough for it to fire, ran from the scene, stopped, talked the cop down and then CHARGED at the cop as he approached.

A WHITE guy would have been shot in the same situation.

Or "Radio Raheem" from "Do the Right Thing."

"It’s far too unlikely that these two accounts are similar accidentally, having been from such disparate sources."

This is key!

Local autopsy will show drugs in system. Holder’s “special autopsy” will be “inconclusive” as to drug use. Bank on it.

Next: A video will surface showing Wilson and another officer doing the Jonah Hill/Channing Tatum first arrest victory celebration from 21 Jump Street.

More likely too lazy to play football. Lots of big people cannot play football because they are merely big.

It turns out that the Jolly Teen Giant wasn’t so gentle after all.

Sort of like Fuzzy Wuzzy the bear.
