I pray he is in a good secret location.
From the article:
“Brown, an African-American who was days away from starting college, was shot to death in what police said was a struggle for the officer’s gun. No one has disputed that Brown was unarmed. But witnesses said the 18-year-old was shot as he tried to distance himself and raised his hands into the air.”
And the cop just gunned him down like a dog in the street.........right.
Anyone else notice there is no talk of a toxicology report on the deceased?
No mention in the CNN account of the fact that Darren Wilson is one of the six Black policemen on that 53 person force. They forgot to mention that. So far, only Breitbart has managed to post a picture of Officer Wilson. This is another disgraceful example of the media covering up the facts that were bound to come out anyway.
This news conference right now is a farce. The officials are playing dumb about the fact that Mike Brown had committed a strongarm robbery right before getting shot by the Cop. Everyone in the media knows about it; everyone but the investigators up there spewing forth.
Darren Wilson was just one of 53 officers in a small-town police department until his encounter with a unarmed 18-year-old last Saturday on a street in Ferguson, Missouri

Nice to see the idiots at CNN are still going with that “unarmed” narrative.
Just like Trayvon was “unarmed”.
Well to be fair... Brown was “unarmed” when he was throttling the neck of the QT cashier just moments before he tried to murder a cop.
Bullshiite. I don't believe that the Ferguson PD can't count cartridges. How many were in Wilson's clip at the start of his shift? How many were left after the shooting? Then that's the number after you do the math. Not some 'estimate'.
Any “prior record” is largely irrelevant. He was caught on surveillance video strong arm robbing a convenience store minutes before his violent confrontation with law enforcement and subsequent death. The liberal media narrative crumbles like the fabrication it is.
If someone broke into my house, and struggled with me to take one of my weapons and after I fired off a round, the perp ran outside - and if II shot him 4-6 times as he was 35 feet from my door running away . I would be charged with murder (or at minimum manslaughter).
Why should that be any different for someone wearing a badge? Are the cops absolved from the same laws that govern the rest of us?
If the perp went for the cop’s gun, does that still give the cop absolution to shoot a perp running away while unarmed?
Whatever happened to tazers, batons or mace?
“days away from starting college, “
and just seconds away from assaulting a store clerk.
I hope six shots to do the job with this size criminal.
I still would like the arrest records of Brown and his little lying buddy..LETS DEMAND THAT!!!!
IF anybody should be LYNCHED it’s the News managers at CNN...
They caused the riot... and are still causing it.. ON PURPOSE...
Some enterprising LAWYER could make a name for hisself..
with a class action suit.. “he HONKification of a black police officer”..
Four to six shots?? Maybe count what’s left?? And how many were warning shots?
What color is the officer? I have seen three hours of speculation. What is the truth? Anyone have firm info?
Okay, piecing together the various accounts and information I’ve run across through various sources, and assuming that the cop with the clean record isn’t a latent racist creep, here’s the scenario I’ve come up with in my mind, which is naturally incomplete, but I’m also trying to read between some of the lines.
Brown and Johnson rob the store and are seen walking down the middle of the street by Wilson. He hollers at them to move. Presumably Brown is still in possession of the stolen cigars, so perhaps he tries to toss them aside or hide them. Whatever motion he makes in this regard makes Wilson want to talk to them more, so he pulls over and starts to get out.
Thinking he’s about to get busted for robbery, Brown shoves Wilson back into his car, where, believing himself under attack, Wilson goes for his gun. Brown, believing that he’s about to get shot, goes for the gun, too, possibly just to prevent himself from being shot. In the struggle, Brown pummels Wilson until the gun goes off, and Brown withdraws from the car, and moves away from it. I don’t know if he has been shot from the gun discharge in the car or not.
Wilson manages to get out of the car, gun drawn and yells at Brown to freeze. Brown stops and moves back toward Wilson, but because of his facial injuries (blurred vision, blood, swelling...) doesn’t see clearly and fears that Brown is going to resume his attack upon him, so Wilson shoots him multiple times, perhaps due to Brown’s large frame, wanting to make sure that he is incapacitated and can’t follow through with his attack in spite of taking one or two shots.
Now I’ll be interested to see what forensics ultimately indicate.
