Darren Wilson, the Ferguson police officer who fatally shot Michael Brown on Aug. 9, said he felt "like a five-year-old holding onto Hulk Hogan" when he and the 18-year-old allegedly engaged in a struggle inside the officer's vehicle that preceded the deadly shooting.

Riots and looting instigated by Al Sharpton, the punk ass tax cheating racist mofo who regularly makes trips to the White House to hang out with his favorite Kenyan Muslim.

Its because Michael Brown was as high as a kite..that’s what happens when your on drugs, you can get super strength, plus he was a fat ass, probably used that to his advantage as well

I’d call you stupid for that uncalled for and ignorant comment, but I suspect you hear that all the time.

I wouldn’t be so sure. It has to do with his personality. George Zimmerman brought on a lot to himself. Look at Mark Fuhrman...people thought he’d never work again in his life. What a wonderful fulfilling life he’s had. It’s all in the attitude and willingness.

onyx, at the point in time you mentioned from Officer Wilson’s testimony, two things are plain:

1. Michael Brown had temporary control of the officer’s weapon and was directing it—thus Michael Brown WAS armed;

and

2) Michael Brown was attempting the murder of a police officer, and the chances of him seeing the day’s sunset fell into the below 50-50 category.

CBS ignores the PHYSICAL EVIDENCE that undermined the testimony of some of the people that CBS is here quoting uncritically.
