I’ll just say this.. I have a hard time reaching the drivethru ATM much less reaching the throat of a person standing away from the car (enough for the door to bounce off of) and 6ft tall and trying to avoid my reach. My arms just aren’t that long.
If the deceased was shot in the chest, how’d that happen through a closed car door if the deceased’s head was in the car at the time?
you know me, if I though this was clear-cut, I’d be all over it like I was about the NY guy or the jackboots at Bundy’s. I’m still out on this one, tho.
Old news blueplum...he was interviewed yesterday.
I think good to remember that police will often wait, and have a system of how they go about interviewing witnesses. Generally they get info at the scene in part and then the actual investigation ensues where witnesses are more carefully looked at and researched before that next interview.
It’s important to determine credibility and relationships over time.
Seriously though..this isn't going to cease for awhile...just regrouping. Anonymous groups are there and other organizations and community organizers leading the charge. As mentioned prior, everybody who stands to gain something from this is jumping on board. Black Panthers were there the first day. Anabaptist are also there and fighting, setting fires and the like as they always do..
The museums are usually called “African-American” for a reason; outside of their physical characteristics (which for many now entail European heritage as well), there is no correlation. The feeble attempt at pushing “Kwanzaa” demostrated that; it was marketed simply as an anti-Christmas for anti-whites. In Africa itself one small part) it is a harvest festival of sorts. Sagging pants and caps with arrow-straight visors are “dress adapted from Africa”.
Haitians have amuch stronger cultural and genetic traits than African-Americans; they were independent decades earlier, and were less removed from it when they gained it.
Could be. But I just read a new thread here about the police shooting another guy.
I hope all FReepers there stay safe.
Make that:
Sagging pants and caps with arrow-straight visors are “dress adapted from Africa”?
Who said he was standing away from the car??? The SUV pulled up right next to him and he opened the door into him.
The girl was quite credible especially when compared to the absence of witnesses for the popo story which incidentally is still evolving as forensic evidence comes in and they try to spin their story to match it.
one thought about galpal.
‘Snitches Get Stitches’ was spraypainted on the burned out QuikTrip building. Was it in retaliation for them calling the cops or just a warning not to ID any looters?
I’m betting the same thing applies to galpal, especially a young one. not saying that’s the case, just something to consider.
I don’t think the “grabbing him by the neck through the vehicle window” was part of the gangbanger meme — but I do think it will explain the forensic evidence and what a lot of the other witnesses saw and why the police will be back-tracking shortly and coming up with story #3.

oh yea these scumbags will tell the truth
sarc
agree, the thugs story doesn’t pass the smell test.
ow on earth does the car door slam, the officer falls in the car and then grabs through the window a 6 ft guy and then shoot him execution style.
it is amazing how some watch the media and think they are told the truth.
Sorry but I know a few Africans and have been to Africa and blacks here are not African , nor does the Africans I know think that.
Lets not forget that whites to are African and can be African American, even more that blacks here
You are clearly showing your ignorance of the facts of this case.
in your view that is.
Just a “Training Exercise”... “Field Problem”...
Nothing to see here....
Mr. Johnson did. He used the descriptives "ricocheted" and "bounced", which imply distance. Why didn't he just say, he couldn't open his door? But Mr. Johnson says the two of them were assaulted by a door. Natural instinct when someone starts to open a car door is to move away - even more so after being hit by that door. But they didn't, neither one of them, even though Mr. Johnson alleged the officer may have been hostile in that he "reversed his … car in a manner to where it almost hit us."
do you see why Mr. Johnson confuses me a bit? a detail is missing.
I agree with you, bring on the forensics.
Did the city call for a dusk to dawn curfew?
And listen to there welfare queens complain about getting gassed. Hey, nobody told you to be there moron.
Too bad this isn’t the 60s. Cops back then knew how to preserve maintain and preserve dis-order.

I believe in this case, the ‘assault’ on the officer involved the police cruiser’s door. When the officer backed up, he opened his cruiser door and attempted to exit and confront the men. Did he do so slowly and deliberately, or quickly?...
I need to check my sources, but I believe one of the official stories stated that Brown used the cruiser door to strike the officer and knock him back toward the cruiser.
The ‘eyewitness’ stories are that, after backing up, the officer flung the cruiser door open as he attempted to quickly exit the cruiser, and the door struck Brown and bounced back (as it would, with a kid the size of Brown). It could be that Brown helped that bounce, but I can also imagine the policeman striking Brown with the door and the door bouncing back.
The ‘eyewitness’ story is that the policeman then drew his handgun, put Brown in a headlock with his other arm, and pulled Brown back to the car.
Allegedly, the police officer accidentally discharged the weapon as Brown was struggling to get out of the headlock - with no fight over the weapon.
That was why it was done[move Section 8 housing into otherwise decent neighborhoods]. It was intended that the Section residents would create chaos and mayhem at every opportunity.
