If you reach inside the car and grab the cops shirt, that will end up in the report that you were trying to grab his gun if the cop shoots you. Your goal has to be the gun in the mind of the cop.

Yeah, I should have added the /sarc tag after. That wasn’t directed at you, friend... was kind of a general slap at those who denigrate our right at every opportunity.

I implore the police to put their uniforms back on and lose their military camouflage and military war mentality...This goes for all the events everyone has been witnessing, not just what is happening in St. Louis...

I bet a lot of people moved out of east st louis to ferguson years ago to get away from inner city crime, now that it followed them to the suburbs where will they move now?

Two black Congressmen called on Obama to declare Martial Law today. It is just a matter of time.

I agree. Two dichotomies have arisen with this unfortunate situation: one, I agree with Sen Paul - Demilitarize the police across the country. Two, the black “community” should be ASHAMED - nothing screams “justice” like a stolen 60” High Definition TV.

Well said, but there’s another element in this story: the jury. All of the evidence in the world won’t matter if the jury is prejudiced, and once the cop’s name, address and SS# are made public, his life is in danger regardless.

I’m making the assumption that this will be prosecuted.

Police simply don't start physical confrontations with suspects through the open window of their police car.************************
I agree with you. Someone in that position is at a clear disadvantage.

I have no idea what happened, however after just watching live on CNN, it seems to me they are throwing the officer involved under the bus, going to let a grand jury decide??
So the officer gets no rights? NOT suggesting cops can do no wrong, I was roughed around once in my life by them and was totally innocent, but having said that, it sounds like under the bus for the officer involved for the sake of the day.

This will be about witnesses and evidence. So far, the deceased is having witnesses speak. The police aren’t saying anything.

I agree. This will be prosecuted. Don’t they run continual tape/video in police cars? Or is that just when there’s a stop made?

isn't that the way it usually works? the grand jury decides if there's enough evidence to goto trial???

In a case without media attention, it may not even reach the grand jury, I would argue most cases dont go to a grand jury? They can indict a ham sandwich right.
I always thought once a case goes to a grand jury the % is in the 90`s that it goes to trial.
Like I said, I have no idea what happened, but this officer could easily be railroaded.

Agreed. But I have a problem with the multiple shots by police if that is the case. Some say he was shot 8 times!
I’m waiting for facts which are a long time coming.
Anyone know if the autopsy report is out yet? Or when?
