Darren Wilson on why he shot Michael Brown
nypost ^ | Nov. 25, 2014 | Joe Tacopino

The officer who fatally gunned down Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., described to the grand jury how the unarmed teen overpowered and taunted him.

“I drew my gun,” Officer Darren Wilson recalled. “I said, ‘Get back or I’m going to shoot you.’ He immediately grabs my gun and says, ‘You are too much of a pu–y to shoot me.”

The officer said he was sitting in his patrol car when he drew his firearm after Brown slugged him twice in the face through an open window. They proceeded to struggle over the weapon and Wilson — who is 6 feet 4 — said he was overmatched.

“When I grabbed him, the only way I can describe it, I felt like a 5-year-old holding on to Hulk Hogan,” Wilson said. “That’s just how big he felt and how small I felt.”

“The only way I can describe it, is it looks like a demon,” the officer said. “That’s how angry he looked.”

But then Brown charged at him and the officer fired repeatedly, he said — describing how he fired the fatal shot to Brown’s head as Brown continued to charge him.
“I saw the last one go into him,” Wilson said. “It went into him, the demeanor on his face went blank, the aggression was gone.”

MB was possessed by a demon....sure sounds like it to me. Even in pics he looks straight up evil.

The race hustlers aren’t the only winners here. there were actually quite a few winners. The ferals had their fun, the police improved their image, companies got to close unprofitable locations in Fergadishu permanently, and we all got an object lesson on what really happens when the SHTF.

And lets not forget that the scum in Fergadishu now have a burnt out ghetto to call their very own.

I've also noticed Brown's progentitor speaks peace peace to the press but wears shirts calling for action such as what has just transpired.

It was reported that, upon hearing the grand jury decision, the step dad said, "Let's burn this b@tch down."

A REAL PEACEFULL family upbringing, I'm sure.

So your point is that the lives of some dead black people had value?

He’d have been a fool to not have prepared his thoughts prior to testifying in front of the grand jury. Your point is....?

“black lives have no value”.

Proven last night when all the democrats spilled into the street to burn down the black neighborhoods and businesses.

“Now, in the former united states of amerika, we have alarms, guns, and iron doors to defend against the crooks. Man, how civilized we here in the former united states of america have become.”

It’s exactly what happens to a nation that forgets God and shoves Him away from their society, gov’t, and schools. We deserve everything we get!

It reminded me of the South Park movie, where the White General has all the blacks in the First Wave, which of course would get them all killed then the white soldiers move in behind him....it was called “Operation Get Behind the Darkies.”

That’s what this was, White Leftists engineering social chaos with the blacks intended to be the ones to shed their blood for the good of the cause.

Yep.

Didn’t show the courage you have though.

"Why do you say that? If that’s how he felt, it’s how he felt."

Because I have spent the last three decades trying cases in courtrooms around the country and I have a pretty good sense when a witness is using words contrived by lawyers to make a point. I'm not saying that Wilson didn't feel that way; I am saying that his reference to Hulk Hogan to express how he felt, seems contrived to paint a picture and make a point to a target group that is likely of the same generation as the Hulk.

It conveniently fails to mention that Brown was 6'5 and outweighed Wilson by at least 70 pounds.

Preparing your own thoughts prior to testifying is one thing; allowing a lawyer to prepare your thoughts is rarely a good idea. Supposed Wilson had been indicted and had to stand trial. In some situations, his grand jury testimony may be used against him in the criminal trial, and if a skilled attorney can make the argument that the words that Wilson used are not his own, then that may very well effect the weight and credibility of his other testimony.

“He blessed me in a quiet, Michael Jackson voice, and said he wanted to give me a hug. But I hate gentle giants and am an angry white man with delusions of power. So I shot him!”

He was also seated in his car while MB was standing over him. MB had way better leverage.

Two shots were fired from inside the vehicle following the struggle,

I don't recall ever seeing this mentioned before. If so, the forensics and evidence provided by this alone would be enough to prove Wilson's side of the story.

Black lives in America 2014 AD do not lack any value, their behavior simply causes them to have little value. They are not a very introspective people(setting aside black behavior expressed solely for political and economic purposes.)

Old Joe McCarthy was somewhat vindicated by all the documents that oozed out of Russia after the fall of Communism in the former Soviet Union.

There really were reds under the bed!!! Especially under Roosevelt's bed.
