The Hands up Don't Shoot LIE (Vanity)

self

[1Old Pro]

We are witnessing something quite incredible -

The hands up don't shoot protestors from Fergusen to the football fields are basing their grievances and activism on a total LIE.

Michael Brown NEVER raised his hands and said don't shoot - yet there is a viral national protest scene trying to convince America that this happened.

I cannot believe nobody is questioning any of this?

We are witnessing a total rewrite of what occured to fit the protesters view of what they think happened, which the facts don't support.

It's no wonder liberalism fails and these protests will fail - there is no foundation of fact for their grievances so you can't FIX an imaginary problem.

That needs to be the chant of the opposing team’s fans when the St Louis Rams enter the stadium.

Pants up!
Don’t loot!

Certain folks think that by miming the “hands up” gesture they’re showing racial solidarity or sympathy for blacks who are the victims of injustice. But what they’re really saying is “Hey, look at me. I ignore facts and want to see an innocent white guy get lynched.”

[tanknetter]

I still thing we should coopt the meme.

See those folks doing “hands up don’t shoot”? They’re just demonstrating what Mike Brown should have done, and would still be alive today had he done.

No kidding, it is Orwellian

[tophat9000]

Also the one shot in the top on the head.. you would assume that was fatal. ..

so how do you get shot in the top the head unless your head down going fowared...(unless there was a second shooter in the sixth floor school book depository? )

It not at an angle for a coup de grace if all ready down

Exactly - the lie needs to be mocked

For what its worth......
Has this posting been proving to be accurate? There is a
Snopes article that cast doubt on its accuracy.

The list of charges that are cited in the “Example” block above and proffered as documenting
Michael Brown’s criminal record above appear to have been drawn from a Missouri court search
in which someone found a case involving some other Michael Brown and mistakenly assumed that
person was the teenager killed in Ferguson. However, that case record (3SL-CR12675-01, ST V
MICHAEL R BROWN) referenced someone with a similar but different name (Michael R. Brown
vs. Michael Brown, Jr.), who lived in a different Missouri town (Troy vs. Crestwood) and was
born in a different year (1997 vs. 1996) than the Michael Brown who was shot in Ferguson.

Legally, when two individuals are fighting for possession and control of a firearm, both are deemed to be in possession of that weapon.

Worth repeating

[Jeff Head]

Ah...then shoot the messanger, I suppose.

You seem a little too anxious, IMHO, to accuse someone (whom you don’t know) of being a moron because they have typos in their article which states the truth?

Hmmm...might think about that one. Perhaps a case of pot, kettle, black, eh?

OK. If ever I see a “messanger”; I’ll shoot him.

Sorry Jeff. Don’t take my poking fun too seriesly. Lord knows I’m not the Grammar Police.

But if you wrote that hot mess then you knew it was badly spelled and you didn’t care. Or you flunked out of 4th grade spelling.

[txhurl]

I guess the only way we’ll ever know if Brown’s juvenile record is unsealed... what exactly he was turning his life around from.

Thanks for the advisement.

[deport]

We may never know or at least for sometime. His obituary list his name as Michael Brown, Jr.
Has no middle initial listed. Take care.

[etl lll]

Anyone hear Michael Brown’s attorney, I think on FoxNews Sunday, say something along the lines that Brown needs “to be remembered for what he stood for”.

[Paradox]

There are MANY witnesses who testified that he DID have his hands up. So we have conflicting accounts, and the forensic evidence cannot disprove that his hands were up, so this gives them the out they need to further the myth, if that's what it is.

They live in their echo chamber, we live in ours....

[etl lll]

Hard to believe that there was no cellphone video of what happened.

[ravenwolf]

Actually if liberalism had failed we would not be in this mess to begin with.

But both sides need to stick to the story which started the incident.

The incident had to do with walking in the street, not robbery.

Every one knows that a teenager black or white has no common sense especially when they have been taught hate by the liberals.

Any one mature enough to be a police officer should have the common sense to let it go.

I believe the police officer had the right to defend himself but he should not have started it to begin with.

We need to end this police state mentality.

[Lee'sGhost]

Not what I was thinking...but makes sense.

Thanks.

There are MANY witnesses who testified that he DID have his hands up

And I think that their accounts were dismissed because of obvious inaccuracies when compared to case facts. In other words, if the witness said he had his hands held up AND that he had a bible in boths hands while walking on water - the testimony was disregarded.

We need to end this police state mentality.

Telling a probably strong arm robbery suspect to get out of the middle of the street is police state how?
