Legally, it does matter. If an assailant has a considerable size advantage over his victim, the assailant is considered armed under the law.

I don’t think that was the thrust of his post. I think he was saying TPTB tried to conceal evidence that this was a righteous shoot.

Dude (or Dame), I am as anti-cop as they get. However, even I believe cops have the right to protect themselves.

With Holder’s history of twisting evidence and race baiting (ala Saint Skittles Martin), I would try to keep the evidence away from his goon squad, too. the dipstick hates cops and appears to want to promote a racial divide.

shot “multiple times” after being stopped while walking in the middle of the street

I'm pretty sure I read of something happening between,
'being stopped while walking in the middle of the street'
and being, 'shot multiple times'.

Another low-life, race monger twisting the facts
to expunge any blame from a tribe member
and put it all on a 'racist' cop.

yes, I agree, but if Mikey was running away, why get out and shout stop if he can’t get the arrest done alone? Why not wait for backup as they say on tv

He would’ve been just as violent if he were smaller.

I suspect PCP is the culprit, not that they’ll ever let that evidence see the light of day.

GMTA except that I think truth will come out. Timing will be more of the issue, IMO.

He didn’t deserve to die.
He had to be stopped.
The consequence of doing what it took to stop him was, well, natural.

Because of an active grand jury investigation.

We “slimers” have simplified the incident by labling St. Cigarillo a thug. Meanwhile, people Iike the author of this apologia continue their eternal quest for the truth, not by painting Michael Brown as a martyr to police brutality but by objectively sifting the facts of the case.

No need for a sarcasm tag ...

Disparity of size is a legal defense... Wilson was outweighed and feared for his life - that’s justification for shooting the thug. And yeah, we know Brown was a thug from the video...

Black street thugs who beat up whites, Asians, Hispanics and Jews are also ‘unarmed’... and they should be tried for murder if there’s brain damage to their victims... Lee A. Daniels is a fool... and an apologist for thuggery... Shame on him.

As in the Martin-Zimmerman and Duke/lacrosse incident, as the facts unfold the original narrative is usually eroded. I've been reading about these types of purportedly racial incidents for the last fifty years. The lib media always...ALWAYS!!! initially tries to put the blame on the white party.

I have to believe for many of the old stories I've read of similar incidents the lib media was able to cover up the pertinent facts. They can't do that today with the internet and conservative talk radio. Their bulls..t info about these types of incidents isn't believed as much by the general population.

You have obviously convicted the shooter in your mind. Care to cite actual known evidence or is suspicion and innuendo enough for you?
