There is zero evidence that the officer is a “jack booted thug.”

He was doing his basic job, and was attacked.

And no, I do not normally jump up in defense of police in shootings. I find your position WRT this event disturbing.

There has been a long train of abuses perpetrated by the law enforcement community against the law abiding citizens of this country over the past decade or so. A dangerous fascist pattern has emerged. Day after day we are presented with stories of their increasingly heinous abuses. I'm completely sick and tired of it and I'm not about to cheerlead for them because of it. I think this is what finally sealed my opinion of the law enforcement community. So I Just don't care about Daren Wilson any more than I care about Michael Brown who represents another element of American culture that I just can't give a **** about. Sorry you're having so much trouble with that.
