Michael Brown, the unarmed black teenager who was fatally shot by a police officer in a St. Louis suburb, fit the description of a strong-arm robbery suspect that police were responding to the night he was shot, the Ferguson police chief said at a Friday press conference.
Police have said Brown was shot after an officer encountered him and another man on the street. They say one of the men pushed the officer into his squad car, then physically assaulted him in the vehicle and struggled with the officer over the officer's weapon. At least one shot was fired inside the car before the struggle spilled onto the street, where Brown was shot multiple times, according to police

I understand another autopsy is being conducted on the kid which would appear the first one may be suspicious as telling it like it is...or to confirm. IMO....a simple case of a cop doing his job in arresting a punk who resisted and fought back....the officer was treated for face lacerations which they will be shown eventually.
When I want somethin’ man I don’t wanna pay for it.
That’s about the size of it.....and nothing new...when ever they move into an area crime rates always rise...so this is normal behavior for many of them.
Believe it or not the next highest shop-lifting crimes, outside of teens, are Senior Citizens!
I’ve been seeing people post that one picture had sandals and the other is shoes.
gawker, mother jones, et al....sad day for them
Stealing cigars from the store?
And another get out the vote effort for November.
LOL. I work in a high school... and want to say those words ALL THE TIME...but can’t.
What frosts me is the media taking Dorian Johnson’s version as if it’s Gospel Truth, and nothing but.
Right now, I think the only evidence we have that he was "shot from a distance" is the account of his accomplice. About all we know for sure is that he was shot, and that he fell down 35 feet from the police car.
He's a big dude. If he was shot from six feet away, and managed to get five strides before he fell down, that would put him at about 35 feet away.
When have facts ever mattered to the likes of Sharpton, Jackson, et al?
Now that the real story is starting to come out, I expect them and others of their racist ilk to fan the flames even further to keep THEIR narrative going;
“Innocent, gentle giant child with candy in his hands trying to get home to his mother, gunned down by a racist cop who hates blacks.”
It’s how the poverty pimps line their pockets.
What “lies and cover ups”?
I was one pulled ore because my vehicle matched the description of a car takedown at gunpoint a few blocks away. After the 3rd cruiser showed up I decided to comply with every little thing the cop wanted. Amazingly when you comply they get much less nervous and quicker realized they were looking for a black thug with tats on his forehead.
I’d imagine an illegal Palestinian Tranny is at the top of the PC foodchain.
Working in a high school and on the beat as a cop are two very different things...though you have your share as we all know.
I’m getting tired of the police being strapped from doing their jobs. I know enough of them to have heard what they can and cannot do and it’s ridiculous how we tie their hands...same with our Military.
Bad guys and those committing criminal acts continue to do so because there are no consequences.....blacks whine about being afraid of the police...well your suppose to be! There’s a healthy fear if you respect their authority..and they do have that given to them...it’s another fear if your up to know good and gotten away with it in the past.
and aren’t Swishers and Phillies like 69 cents each? So probably $3 for a 4 pack. What a dumb punk
Easy to do when your not guilty, though I think all are squeamish when an officer stops them....I am even if it's a traffic violation! That's just a healthy discomfort natural. I'm beginning to think the black community wants officers as "friends"...and that's not what they're there for. Sheesh...we've so gone off board playing this "let's all be friends' mumbo jumbo that common sense is a thing that's become rare today!
Maybe if the schools were allowed to discipline kids like we used to, the cops wouldn’t be having such a rough time today.
Our hands are tied and some of the things kids do behind schools wall would be considered felonies out on the street - things like theft, vicious assaults (the school will call it a “school yard fight), extortion, threats and worse.
We can’t even suspend them any longer for anything so they get the message that they can get away with anything anywhere.
Contrary to what idiot white liberal elites 'feel' - common black street thugs ARE NOT Kunta's Kinte... or Mahatma Gandhi or even Martin Luther King Jr. Elite liberals embarrass themselves and the memories of men worthy of admiration. Shame on them.
True. And the main witness is his homie, who was in the cigar store with him. We’ll see.
Wow! That makes him more than ever like Obama's fantasy son.
I see it all the time in my community working in a retail environment....the level of 'incompetent parents' is striking here....and most see the schools as babysitting clinics so they can be free of their responsibilites. You can with certainty believe that if their little Johnny goes bad they will blame the school system rather than see that they've raised brats and thugs and bullies. Who never even learn to pull their pants up...and then they wonder why they end up here!
