I was taught by one of my tactics instructors that at that range - where an assailant is striking you - your best move is to empty the magazine into them as rapidly as possible.

That isn't what happened in this case.

Brown had been at this distance, but had run away.

The evidence tends to indicate he was moving back towards Wilson when shot, but was at some considerable distance still.

I'm not clear on the distance between the two men at the moment of shooting, as I've seen several distances stated, everywhere from 35' to 148'.

Neither is exactly arm's length. And 148' would be darn good shooting under the circumstances.

I guess you missed the part about how Brown had turned around and was charging head down “like a football thing” at Wilson and that’s when Wilson fired. It’s in the testimony of the Grand Jury.

I heard “ Brown’s blood was found 21’ further away from where he fell(dead), 8 or10 feet from Wilson.”
Indicating MB traveled toward Wilson, in final motions/movement
Brown’s parasitic partner is still spewing LIES to MSNBC Priss Hayes .
