Funny thing about facts, they are what they are-always have been, always will be. Fact. On August 9, 2014 Officer Darren Wilson-a six year veteran of the Fergusoin Police Department-shot and killed 18 year old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. Fact. Michael Brown was unarmed at the time of his death. Fact. There are at least two (TWO!!!) eye witnesses, Dorian Johnson-Michael Browns friend that was with Brown at the time of the shooting-and Piaget Crenshaw-happened to video record from her apartment window Darren Wilson shooting Brown dead.
Fact. Both witnesses have gone on national news networks to tell their stories. Now that the facts (and no these arent ALL of the facts but facts nonetheless) have been laid out Officer Darren Wilson needs to be brought to justice.
Why isnt Darren Wilson in a jail cell? That is the question I kept going back to as I sat down at my desk and turned on my laptop in preparation of this column. The facts are the facts: Didnt he shoot an unarmed Michael Brown? Killed him in cold blood for what ultimately was an alleged shoplifting charge. Fact. Darren Wilson is white. Fact. Michael Brown was black.
Unfortunately that might be the ultimate fact in the story. White policeman kills black teen. White man kills black boy. Fact. Separate authorized and unauthorized autopsy reports show that bullets entered Browns body from the front. That Brown may have attacked Darren Wilson after he and Johnson were instructed to freeze could be true. Im not arguing that fact. Both witnesses to the shooting that have gone public thus far say that at one point Brown had his hands in the air, arms raised, no gun in hand before being shot six times. Fact. Darren Wilson should be in jail in Ferguson, Missouri for if nothing else manslaughter. Being a terrible police officer isnt against the law is it?
Fact. There have been Darren Wilson supporters online-Facebook and GoFundMe accounts have been set up and have garnered over $70,000 thus far. Fact. Since Browns murder there have been 21 consecutive days of protest on the streets of Ferguson since the shooting. Fact. The Missouri Highway Patrol has been called in to do the job that the Ferguson P.D. obviously could not. Fact. There has been more money donated to the Darren Wilson there has been to Michael Browns family. That alone says more about race relations in Missouri and around the country than any newscast or column could ever state.
FACT. Michael Browns funeral will be held in Ferguson on August 25. Darren Wilson will be available to attend because he most likely will not be in custody.
Sounds like a racist publication ...
Please post link to alleged video.
“The Case Against Officer Darren Wilson”
To be found in the fiction section.

This is the first I have read there was VIDEO OF THE SHOOTING.
Fact? Or, as suspected, fiction?
FACT: All actually relevant facts have been withheld in this race-baiting screed.
Shoulda included a barf alert, 2D.
All else is based on “eyewitness” story of friend, er, felonious accomplice with a history of filing false police reports.
Piaget Crenshaw Releases Video Evidence in Michael Brown Case

Whatta-buncha-cr@p. I did not dignify the trash by clicking the link.
“Thy Black Man” didn’t set off any alarms?
Meanwhile, we have video of Brown robbing a store and committing assault. Clear evidence that Wilson was punched hard in the face, with the only quibbling about whether the punch was hard enough to break his eye socket. And forensic evidence that Brown was not shot in the back as claimed by the witnesses.
Talk about ignoring the facts. But that is what the fans of St. Skittles and St. Blunts do.
“Fact. Darren Wilson is white. Fact. Michael Brown was black.”
The only facts that concern Mr. Suggs, Attorney General Holder or the majority of Americans who elected Obama care about.
I posted the entire article, so there’s no reason to, unless you wanted to peruse their other insightful articles.
Six paragraphs and he managed not to use the phrase “at this point in time” once. I’m impressed!
Thugs defending thugs is not new. Bonnie & Clyde had many supporters as well.
Doesn’t show what he claims, did it?
The video is after the shooting....
