Ferguson police released the name of the officer that fatally shot 18-year-old Michael Brown, while also revealing that Brown was a suspect in a convenience story robbery over a $48.99 box of cigars.
The young man picked up his layaway merchandise -- the item he'd been making payments on until it was fully paid for -- and started to leave the store.
That's when the evil capitalist owner informed him that the cost of the cigars had increased to $48.99 and he could not yet have the cigars -- which the young man intended to distribute at a home for poor elderly, BTW.
You see in black neighborhoods the exorbitant prices black citizens are forced to pay include what can legally be deemed layaway payments if the citizen chooses. The practice was revealed in the 1960s when racist media employees reported looting. It wasn't looting after all.
(Nothing funny about what's happening? You are right but the civil rights industry and victims industry have been stirring up hate and violence with lies and it's time for them to be held accountable. IMO.)
That's what I can't figure out.
According to Western Journalism, Chief Jackson had confirmed that this was anything but murder...Jackson stated that the officer was severely beaten, and the side of his face was swollen along with lacerations.
they were under siege for the past five days. If they didn’t have to act riot control for 96 straight hours, they might have been able to address the investigation in a more timely fashion.
Wow. I put dollar bills in my mouth and aim my Glock at the camera, too, when I drink Hawaiian Punch. What a coincidence.
Barack Obama is an enemy of the United States of America. He wants more rioting.
I am getting really tired of this being portrayed as the theft of $50 of cigars.
A 300 pound man assaulted a 120 pound man in the process of, probably, shoplifting, then fled the scene. The felony was the assault, not the theft.
Anywho, as I understand it, when he assaulted the clerk, the crime went from theft to robbery, a much more serious crime.
It's called an investigation..which takes time...premature news serves nobody’s interests and should not be released because people want it served like a McDonalds order.
Furthermore...the police officer and his family were already being threatened before the riots even broke out. They know the public there in that community and it doesn't take much to incite them....long standing rage of blacks toward cops is prevalent there...not hard to assume any information which would be counter to what the people wanted to "believe" wouldn't help the situation...they were ready for a fight and had already determined guilt of the officers involved before the riots..
The Gentle Giant- his grandmamma sais he was such a sweet boy.
....”when he assaulted the clerk, the crime went from theft to robbery, a much more serious crime”....
and the kid built on that further by resisting the officers and attacking one in a fight....The kid kept stepping into his own crap deeper and deeper.
Is that a huge tatoo on his neck or shadows?
Me too, but I hold my Glock sideways.
Correct.
Their definition of "severe" might be different from ours but if a 300-pound guy smacks you just once - it might be enough.
Dang. All that rioting fer nothin’!
Well, at least we PATRIOTS got to see a Police State in action...and we also got to witness YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE of how the MEDIA whips people up into a frenzy any old time the WANT to.
Both results are EQUALLY chilling and should be duly noted. But, they won’t be...
Dang.
Looks to me like he has a gun in his hand.
——Let’s see how the leftist media handles this bit of info. ——
If that info doesn’t fit into their agenda....It doesn’t exist...
The biggest problem we have with the american media is what they don’t report...not their bias....
That is NOT mike brown in the second picture.
That could very well be a gun he was pushing at the guys neck in the bottom left pic
They have video, so if he had a gun they would know and are holding that for later for some reason
