Michael Brown, aka "Big Mike," has been described as too "gentle" to play football. But a police report released Friday, and photos of Mike Brown flashing 'gang signs,' paint a different portrait of black teenager fatally shot Saturday, Aug. 9.

Was Michael Brown a "gentle giant," a cigar thief, or a gang member?

Anything that doesn't fit the government narrative will be purged.

Look at the history of behavior of the people controlling this,it’s a foregone conclusion how this turns out.Holder’s pulling the strings and we all know what kind of man he is.

The black teenager had no adult criminal record, according to the St. Louis County prosecutor.

He was 18, how long had he been an adult? Did he have a juvenile criminal record?

It turns out that the Jolly Teen Giant wasn’t so gentle after all.

Yes. It’s under seal but I’ve seen his juvenile record posted here. Not 100% it was legit.

Too gentle to play football? Or too drugged out?

Too gentle to play football?

Or not gay enough? (Of course last night's big story in the NFL: Michael Sam got a sack.)

Or too disrespectful of authority to listen to the coaches or stick to a training and practice regimen?

It's known that apparently the Brown Family doesn't trust the local autopsy:

Family Asks Justice Dept. to Oversee 2nd Autopsy

Holder Orders DOJ to Do Further Autopsy on Michael Brown

DOJ Orders Second Autopsy Of Teen Shot By Ferguson Police

This leaves open what Holder would have done if Mr. Brown was not black.

The top report could show he was amped up on meth, and this bunch would say that wasn’t relevant to the shooting.

An earlier post there was the possibility that an earlier video might link him to the beating of a hot dog vendor.
