Michael Brown: A Criminal and a Thug

As the media-sanctioned rioting, bloodshed and looting continue in Ferguson, Missouri, evidence is emerging that police shooting victim Michael Brown wasn’t the upstanding citizen that many on the Left have claimed him to be.

All of this is happening as mobs have been attacking cops with Molotov cocktails and destroying community infrastructure. Some blacks in the region are reportedly randomly assaulting non-blacks as collective payback for what happened to Brown. Looting and property destruction are rampant. Scores of people have been arrested. Aircraft were ordered to fly at least 3,000 feet over Ferguson airspace after police said their helicopters were fired on from the ground.

A curfew was imposed, and the state’s feckless Democratic governor, Jay Nixon, stripped local police of some of their responsibilities, replacing them with state highway patrolmen. This, predictably, led to more looting of stores and all the things that usually happen when an angry, violent mob is rewarded for its bad behavior.

Through it all, the Left is out in force in Ferguson, trying to make a bad situation worse. The criminal elements of the city have been emboldened by martyrized accounts of Brown, and have carried out a campaign of destruction against the civil order under the banner of “no justice, no peace.”

As happened in the Trayvon Martin case two years ago, the hulking, nearly 300-lbs. Brown has been portrayed as an innocent doe-eyed angel unfairly cut down by evil police as a promising future awaited him. In Brown’s case, he was said to be just days away from heading off to college.

Tons of free tuition money for minority folks but not so much for white folks.

It is apparent that the Obama Regime wants to continue the “oppressed black” narrative by the suppression of information about the facts of the case. Also, the nature of the thuggery going on in Ferguson has been presented from the perspective of he “oppressed black” reacting to his oppression. The elephant in the room, of course, is the illegal drug industry that has sucked the black culture into the slavery of the devil. There is an evil running rampant in the black culture, that has been shielded from scrutiny by the accusation of racism. It has fostered the complete breakdown in the rule of law and a disregard for civility in an orderly society.

If the officer had any eye injury, it would be more difficult to see the target so the six bullets would be more understandable to a jury. But we all know Holder is going to make him pay for Zimmerman not getting hanged at noon on the courthouse steps.

Thank you

Exactly. What’s he supposed to do, shoot him in the leg? Then when the bullet strikes a major artery and the SOB bleeds to death, then here come the protests and riots regardless.

Trumped up BS all for political show and $$$. Most of them could have cared less about this POS, especially given the way they gun down each other.

They have and here is their statement:

Statement from Vatterott:

“Vatterott College has been part of the Ferguson community since the 1970s and we share in the community’s grief over this young man’s death and the circumstances surrounding it. As a matter of policy, we do not disclose the enrollment status of current students or those who may have plans to attend Vatterott College. Our thoughts and prayers remain with Michael Brown’s family and the Ferguson community during this difficult time.”

Forgive me if this has been discussed already...

Dorian Johnson better be very, very careful of what he says.

If the shooting of Michael Brown is tied back to the convenience store robbery, then by law, if Johnson was an accomplice in that robbery he can be charged with homicide in the death of Brown.

We had a robbery shooting here last year where four yutes from nearby Castro Valley tried to rob a local pawn shop. The owner shot and killed one of the robbers, and the other three ran away. They were all eventually caught and charged with robbery and homicide in the death of their friend.

Johnson could be in the same situation if the shooting of Brown was a result of the QuikTrip robbery that Johnson was also involved in.

Medical examiner today, Monday, said Marijuana was present. That test is easily done and may well precede more detailed toxicological tests.

[humblegunner]

Your welcome!

You're.

[UCANSEE2]

said Marijuana was present.

Isn't that because it's the easiest and quickest thing to test for ?

Assuming that Mike probably smoked pot for several years, it would really show up on a blood test.

Now, PCP or some other related drug, used in small doses and probably not for very long might be harder to detect.

Only time will tell, my FRiend.

[UCANSEE2]

But we all know Holder is going to make him pay for Zimmerman not getting hanged at noon on the courthouse steps.

Is that why Holder boarded a plane headed to ST. Louis with a carry-on bag full of nooses ?

[UCANSEE2]

Did he always live with grandma since she lives 15 mins. from his HS or what?

Maybe he lived with Grandma because his driver's license was suspended and he had to walk to school.

Is that a terrified ‘white’ Hispanic?

Finally, it’s all making sense now - one mean, likely stoned and dangerous wannabe gangsta thug setting conditions in Ferguson for his fellow thugs to emulate his actions by engaging violently upon the citizens and property of Ferguson in an unlawful rage of looting and destruction. If Michael Brown could have been there himself, he would have likely been leading these bullies, thugs and cowards.
And please, don’t try telling us that he was just a normal mischievous teenager having some fun on a weekend night. Michael Brown was a man who purposely set out to rob a store of a box of cigars to complement his marijuana usage, and then had the audacity and stupidity to strong arm and assault the store owner and continue to intimidate and threaten the owner before he defiantly marched down the middle of a street obstructing traffic and creating a danger to drivers and pedestrians. When confronted by a law enforcement officer he did not comply with a simple request and took it upon himself to, much like the store owner confront and strong arm a police officer, punching him in the face, reaching for the officers gun and attempting to wrest the firearm from the officer resulting in it accidentally discharging. He decided to then run from the officer and when asked to stop decided to ‘bum rush’ the officer who had absolutely no choice but to shoot not just once, but until this violent and menacing danger was stopped as he continued to charge the officer. And don’t try to say that he was unarmed, he was a 300 pound weapon himself who used his size and weight as a deadly weapon.
What was the purpose of publishing the name and address of a well-respected officer of the law if not to intimidate and frighten him and his family and put them in immediate danger and fear for their own lives.
Why are we lionizing Michael Brown as an innocent martyr, when in truth he was nothing more than a common thief and criminal, a danger to himself and to society.

This series of incidents reminds me of the stories I heard as a child and as a younger man from the old city/urban police officers. They would talk about how the populations in the cities were lost and should just be written off and how they don’t contribute anything to society. For every good kid, there were a hundred just plain bad ones. They didn’t really attend school, the “mothers” wouldn’t work and most just banged the neighbors and their “fathers” wouldn’t stick around to clean up the mess. Most of them didn’t work so they just gave in to their primal instincts. Most of the older guys (cops) said that more abortions would make their jobs easier.
My father’s friends would describe them as super dangerous children inside of an adult frame. Imagine a super aggressive child with no off-switch, in a perpetual temper tantrum, with a never ending list of desires in their heads and with the strength of an adult to get whatever they wanted. Multiply that by a few thousand and you have your typical urban neighborhood. They can’t be told “no”, they can’t be told to “stop”, they can’t be spoken to in a rational fashion you would expect as adults, they respond only to the base desires and emotional needs of an adolescent and sometimes a toddler. Candy, toys, money to get candy and toys, is all they understand.
