On any given summer afternoon in America.....there’s probably 500,000 teens walking around in a daze from their two marijuana smokes of the morning. Some will live. Some will die by a car accident, assault, or just walk off a cliff not realizing the potential danger. This is life in 2014. Brown just wasn’t destined to live a long life.
“For some, location of Brown’s hands irrelevant”
For some, the evidence is irrelevant.
What happeneds when you try to reach for an officers gun?
“He wasn’t shot because of the placement of his hands; he was shot because he was a big, black, scary man,”
Or, maybe...just maybe, because he was a thug criminal who ran up against a cop after just robbing a small business owner of goods, and he let his gangsta lifestyle rule his interaction with that cop. He lost.
The protestations of his mother, father, and the rest of Michael Brown’s ‘community’ notwithstanding, he was the catalyst for his own demise, as has been demonstrated by the grand jury ‘no bill’ finding.
“Brown had been walking with a friend down the center of Canfield Drive when Wilson, passing in his patrol vehicle, told them to move to the sidewalk. They did not. Wilson testified that he then realized Brown was a robbery suspect. A scuffle broke out at the vehicle. Wilson fired a shot that hit Brown in the right hand. When Brown ran, Wilson gave chase. At some point, Brown stopped and turned toward Wilson, who opened fire. “
This explanation of the first encounter by the AP shows either bias or incompetence by the reporter. There is no mention of Brown assaulting the officer and going for his gun. An action like this can only be interpreted by the officer as an attempt to kill him.
Without this type of negligent reporting we may have had no grand jury investigation and no riots. This negligence is wide spread in a media that feels it has a right to shape public opinion. The media does great harm to the Nation and the public needs to be careful as to what they believe.
The reason this situation ended up the way it did is because the whole premise of the case against Wilson was based on lies and fabrications in order to fullfil a desire to make this all about race and police brutality.
Th prosecutor most likely handled the GJ the way he did because he knew that if 12 people on the GJ could not be convinced by the facts of the case, a trial, and a great defense attorney in a different venue, would lead to the same conclusion the George Zimmerman case ended up with.
The Zimmerman trial was a real smackdown and embarrassment for the prosecutors. They had poor witnesses, made up facts that could be exposed, and really nothing because they were trying to prove an assumed intent that wasn’t at all provable becuase it wasn’t there.
I would suggest to the Crump team to pick a case where they do not have to “fabricate” a narrative and has a victim that really is a victim. Drugged up, strong arm. gangbangers who have just robbed and pushed a store owner around, do not make people feel sympathetic.
Mike Brown would still be alive today had he just have stood there and behaved himself. That cop had just come from a call to help a sick toddler. I doubt it could be proved he had the intent to go out and kill a black kid over some cigarillos.
They aren't angry because a police officer shot an assaulting suspect, they are angry because self-appointed communisty organizizers told them to be angry based on the lies of the suspect's friend (who changed his testimony).
“He wasn’t shot because of the placement of his hands; he was shot because he was a big, black, scary man,>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
This is getting so old. Brown was shot because he assaulted a police officer who was acting in the course of duty, and Brown, when ordered to stand down from his assault, refused to do so. Thus he was the victim of the officers lawful use of deadly force.
All Brown had to do was simply stop his assault in order to live, and he was too belligerent to stop, his attitude toward police was disrespectful. This belligerence and disrespect was likely directly caused by his community’s culture and the attitude of his parents, all internalized by this angry young man.
Instead of being a member of civil society, Brown became
a winner of the Darwin Award. Civil Society will never give in to the unlawful disorder required by Brown and his ilk. And why should it? Why should each and every one of us be armed and ready to defend ourselves as opposed to the police doing so on our behalf? If so, you haven’t seen any shooting at all yet. The corpses will pile up like cordwood.

The AP accidentally tells the truth.
Just as in the trial in To Kill a Mockingbird, what actually happened is irrelevant. The shooting, like the "rape," has become a symbol of the relationship between the races. The response to it is racial theater, intended to dramatize the relationship between the two groups.
This is the AP saying it all is based on lies...
The media will never let go of this. They have turned the name of a town into a symbol, like Katrina.
“he was shot because he was a big, black, scary man” who punched a police officer, tried to take his gun, fled and then came charging back at him.
“He wasn’t shot because of the placement of his hands; he was shot because he was a big, black, scary man,” said James Cox, 28, a food server who protested this week in Oakland, California.
Blacks believe this about themselves in general; that Whites are ‘scared’ of them. You should see the comical looks on their faces when they are abruptly disabused of this notion.
ENEMEDIA.
Much of America’s press has become America’s enemy.
They defecate on our 1st Amendment.
They are the biggest cause and culprit in America’s decline.
Brown was shot because he tried to play the “knockout game” with a cop—as was the case with Trayvon Martin who sucker punched George Zimmerman.
Truth is irrelevant. All that matters is the narrative.
