I think that was the shot fired in the car during the struggle for the gun.

Which is precisely why we haven't heard anything about it from any news outlets.

...but facts don’t mean squat to the race-baiters and their dupes.

Sadly I believe you are corrct.

I happened upon the below video the other day, and it became more clear to me what we as conservatives are up against; folks with the mindset of the lady in this video vote:

Read my original post again.....nowhere did I have the rusher with raised hands.....only extended outward as he reaches the QB.

You are right in that the defense often raises their arms to block passes, but that isn’t germane to this scenario.

So much has been written about the incident at Ferguson, Missouri, that it’s remarkable none of it is of any use.

Yes, there has been much written about the incident.

It seems quite arrogant for him to say none of it is of any use. What he says has been covered extensively.

[trebb]

Perhaps Mr. Hunter should run a few Tueller drills.

What in his article prompted that response?

[Theoria]

Mr. Hunter does not reference the movements of the attacker in the potential area of shots and the time that it would take for the attacker to cover the ground and the ability to hit such a target. Mr. Hunter brings up the idea of someone with their hands raised. Fine. But, also include the shoulder and arms moving as someone runs.

I’m still in awe the cop hit this thug six times while under duress.

And with one eye somewhat out of commission to some extent.

We cannot allow Wilson to be the new Zimmerman.

The Mike Brown background story is a myth, and the truth has to come out.
