(CNN) -- While the nation is watching and hearing the angry protests in support of black shooting victim Michael Brown, a different kind of support is being voiced for the white police officer who fatally shot the unarmed teenager.
In a first account of its kind, a caller to Radio America's "The Dana Show," who identified herself only as Josie, told listeners a detailed account of Officer Darren Wilson's side. A source with detailed knowledge of the investigation told CNN it accurately matched what the officer has told investigators.
"He said all of a sudden, he just started to bum rush him," she said. "He just started coming at him full speed, and so he just started shooting and he just kept coming."

Good luck to him, especially if his colleague’s account of events is true, as it sounds.
The support hasn’t necessarily grown, it is just that law abiding people of all races, classes, and socio economic status tire of hearing 24/7 about how wicked America is.
“Journalists” today are a joke. A simple interview with a Ferguson cop could have revealed that Wilson was ASSAULTED by a THIEF named Michael Brown.
REAL Journalism wouldn’t spew the crap that Al Charlatan and his ilk propagate. Good Lord, they have been wrong on so many things so many times....but nope, the lazy butts in cable and local tv just swallow it like so much bad Domino’s Pizza....and beg for more.
No WORK in the realm of journalism is what has allowed this garbage to go on and on and on and on. Easy pictures: people throwing crap, cops responding to protect (or not) the law abiding citizens.
No, the “new” support for Wilson isn’t necessarily new...it is just being recognized.
Well, I bet the leftists hadn’t thought about this.
When this defensive end charged the cop, the cops could have set out tire spikes that might have slowed him down. Then they could have called for a cowboy to wrestle him down to the ground by grabbing the boy’s horns and hog-tying him.
I'm about a thousand miles (I think) from there, but I'd make a real effort to make it. And I'd bring friends.
A million people would show, because we are damn sick of this racist shit.
I think it's good to remember that the majority of the people who live there are not participating in this ignorant behavior. All the whoop di doo about this young man's death, while dozens are killed in Chicago etc.
Reminds me of the 60s all over again. We know who was behind that agitation - groups hoping to start a race war - communists and their sympathizers including the Black Panthers.
I have no doubt that there is a heck of a lot more info to come, and I detest the way the media jumps in and tries to prejudice the facts with their speculation and emotional reporting.
I am still waiting for a random act of objective journalism. Haven't seen it yet, but I am not watching much of the coverage. Just checking in on FR to keep up to date.
