FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) -- The friend who was with Michael Brown when he was shot and killed by a police officer near St. Louis over the weekend is reportedly confirming that he and Brown had taken part in the theft of cigars from a convenience store that day.

That word comes from the attorney for Dorian Johnson, speaking to MSNBC. Police in Ferguson had earlier announced that Brown was suspected of taking cigars from the convenience store in what was described as a "strong-arm robbery.

Well, it’s just some cigars, I guess it’s not that bad.

Depends on whether they were loaded or not.

I know what you mean. It’s hard to hear someone’s tone of voice over the internet.

This isn’t going to go over well with the black extremists, white liberal assholes, Al the Conman Sharpton, and Sheila Lee-Jackson when she gets back from the cleaners (how else can she clean her hair?).

Could it be that the cop that pushed the ‘boy(s)’ off the street received an urgent call about a robbery and people involved and it gave him second thoughts about the ‘boys’ he just pushed off the street so he went to take it up with the ‘boy’s’?

EXCERPTS

In Trayvon’s case, (Parks & Crump) alerted the news media more quickly. They phoned the Rev. Al Sharpton almost instantly, and organized marches with local civil rights activists. They also started pressing for federal involvement and alleging a cover-up from the get-go.

(snip)

“In court, you have the jury,” Crump says. “Our job is to get the case to a jury. We need to fight first in the court of public opinion. The jury is the American people.”

It seems that this Michael Brown guy thought he was some kind of a thug. Good riddance. This cop saved a lot of people a lot of trouble.

Perhaps the FBI, DOJ and St. Louis County Police struck a deal with Dorian Johnson.
