Michael Brown wanted ‘Suicide by cop’. He was lookin’ to get shot at the liquor store, but he finally got what he wanted a few minutes later.
Famous last words. Kind of like, “Here hold muh Mad Dog 20/20.”
That’s almost never a good idea.
You words imply he was shot for taunting a police officer.
He was shot for physically attacking the officer, not for words.
Looks like Brown was wrong.
If an officer has to deal with a guy who makes it clear he wants to ‘go down gambl’n, that is an automatic life-and-death scenario and I guess that is the hardest thing about being a police officer.
There are drunks, mental defectives, and then there are people who are just spoiling for a confrontation and DO NOT care about the outcome! They are going to do what they want and let the chips fall where they may!
Police vs Civilian or not, THAT is an attitude which one guy instantaneously picks up from another one, without even language.
No cop belongs on the force if he doesn't prep himself for this likelihood on a daily basis. What to do and how soon. You are playing with your very life.
Yep. That’s what they call “famous last words”.
Crump and $harpton are busy riling the rabble in the ‘parent’s news conference’ rt now
You know the old warning about assuming - you might make an ass of... well, you may get shot.
“Youre too much of a f****** p***y to shoot me. “
I believe we have a Darwin Award finalist here for 2014
A really stupid thing to say after attacking that police officer, trying to take his firearm away and then attempting to attack him again.
You’re dead wrong, Brown but you were shot because you tried to kill that officer, the second time.
Anyone who stands in defense of a nearly 300 lb. thug who tries to take an officer’s gun then bum rushes him like an offensive lineman IS A TOTAL FOOL. This only hurts the cause of race relations because it sends a message that WE are on the side of the law and they are NOT.
Saying that is stupid.
Acting on that belief is terminally stupid.
Need to make up some t-shirts with that on them to hand out at the race riots.
Maybe MB's mom can set up a stand and sell them.
M. Brown displayed the same attitude toward the officer as he did to the store keeper moments before his shooting.
