But he still, IMHO, placated the crowd too much, which, IMHO, emboldens the agitators.
I hope they bring this under control soon.
I believe, the officer, Wilson, was a hero in this. He did his job and was assaulted, injured, and put in jeopardy of his life for it.
My own reconstruct goes like this:
A large (6 foot 6 inch tall, 290 pound) 18 year old black man, Michael Brown, was shot and killed after a struggle and confrontation with a white police officer, Darren Wilson.Brown had robbed a store moments before and he and his accomplice were walking down the middle of a street when the police officer, unaware of the robbery at the time, asked them to not walk in the middle of the street.
When Wilson pulled ahead and observed that they did not move, he also got a radio report of the robbery, and the two matched the description of the suspects. At that point, Wilson returned to question them.
An argument inured. The officer tried to get out of his vehicle and Brown held the door shut.
A struggles insured through the car window which may have included a struggle for the officer's weapon. In the struggle, Brown punched Wilson in the face, fracturing the orbital bone around his eye.
A shot rang out and Brown and his friend ran.
The officer got out of his car and followed, ordering them to stop. Brown turned sound and had more words with Wilson, and then, according to witnesses, Brwn 'bum charged' the officer who fired several times at the attacking Brown, killing him.
Once again a false narrative (a lie) has been concocted to play the race card, gen up violence, and serve political ends.
The same crew of individuals are involved. Obama, Holder, Sharpton, Jackson, and the New Back Panthers. All to the same purpose, as with Treyvon Martin. And like with Martin...all a pack of lies.
I understand the autopsy Holder ordered was done by the Us Military and completed Monday.....which likely showed Holder some facts possibly yet missing....and why he's going to Ferguson to speak with the “Police Officials” there to see what they have as facts from the happening.
Interesting they did not mention Holder meeting with the Protesters at all. So I'll assume at this point he's there to see the facts from the event and confer with the authorities only.
....might be also trying to determine how to present what they know without further outcry from the protesters because they are not in the mood for facts that might disagree with what they really want....Wilson's arrest.
