Whenever the police shoot someone who is unarmed, we should be concerned. Do we really want to live in such a police state?

If it turns out that the officer was in danger, then that’s one thing. But robbing a store or running from the police or resisting arrest should not be cause for deadly force.

The looting and rioting is also horrible.

The thug was 6' 4", 292 pounds, how big does a felon have to be before you consider that the officer was in danger?

So you really believe that we are in a police state?

If so, how do you explain the fact that over 90,000,000 Americans legally own over 300,000,000 million guns and that number goes up every minute...

Brown was a menacing enough dude just with his size!!! He probably has been in trouble all his years, but didn’t need to be armed!!!

The story about being shot in the back is false, as shown by the photos of his back with no blood. What other sheer fantasy have we been told about what happened?

At this point we have NO IDEA what is true, except that the story we’ve been told about being shot in the back is not true.
