The cops better not put one foot wrong, they are in the wrong here and it will get worse. People are completely fed up with the overreach and abuse from the people we pay to serve and protect preying on us.

Chief Belmar said the incident started when Brown physically assaulted the police officer, pushing him into the officer’s vehicle. He said there was a struggle inside the car, and at some point Brown reached for the officer’s weapon. One shot was fired inside the vehicle.

Brown suffered fatal gunshot wounds outside of the vehicle, approximately 35 feet from the car. Belmar said multiple shell casings were found at the scene, and that Brown was shot more than once, but an exact number of shots fired has not yet been determined. All the shell casings came from the officer’s weapon.

Belmar confirmed Brown was unarmed at the time of the shooting. He did not say what led to the struggle inside the officer’s car.

So I guess you were there. Can you tell us all first hand what exactly happened please. We would all love an eye witness account.

I am not a fan of cops. However, since when does one injustice tell us to condone others?
The looters and other thieves and vandals don’t give a rat’s behind about that kid getting shot. It is just an excuse to destroy and steal. If killing black folks caused them so much grief, why do they keep doing it?

The looting has nothing to do with the cop situation. This is on par with ISIS being savages, too. Savages do as savages do.

what on earth are you on about besides your anti police rants?

You have no idea what the full story is, nor was you there so wait for the investigation because people jumping to conclusions or using their hatred to law enforcement is what causes all this shit.

“The cops are in the wrong here...”

This riot has NOTHING to do with that incident, these rioters are in the wrong.
