The "kid" was clearly on a drug found in the official autopsy, and also the official autopsy found that the people who blamed it on the officer were actually wrong, the gunshots were from close very close range. Not 10 meters away with his hands up.
That kid shouldn't have been killed regardless of the situation. He was shot 6 time because "supposedly" he tried to hit the officer. We can't get his side of the story and the evidence of the altercation between the officer and Mike Brown has been so skewed that honestly no one knows what really happened. So I'm going off of facts. The kid was unarmed and the officer shot him 6 times. Even IF Michael attacked the officer that is NOT how you defend yourself against a TEENAGER with a FIST. He wasn't even armed. If the officer doesn't know how to apprehend a citizen without result to killing them then he shouldn't be an officer. This wasn't self defense. It's was in my opinion negligent homicide. I have no idea whether the officer is a racist. What I know that he and officers like him don't know how to do their job properly and they're murders. And Just because the grand jury said he shouldn't have charges pressed against him doesn't mean he's innocent of murder. It certainly doesn't mean the murder was justified. False rulings/ biased rulings occur all the time. Our legal system like any other isn't perfect, but this is just ridiculous. Being on drugs doesn't mean you deserve to die Robbing a store doesn't mean you deserve to die Attempting to hit an officer doesn't mean you deserve to be shot 6 times like a dog. Darrel Wilson murdered Michael Brown. End of story.
This "teenager" was 6 feet tall and weighed 300 lbs. If he was rushing you and attacking you you'd probably due the same. The cop defended himself and is protected by his rights. People need to take out the race factor and realize he was a thug.
That officer didn't murder anyone. And again read the facts he hit that cop many times as well as grabbed the cops gun. Funny how your tried by the public and found innocent... hmmm I'd say that's not flawed. Really should read up on law and policies and protocalls. Just saying judged by 12 people in community and found not guilty hmm let me guess next your gonna say the jury was bias or racist??? Rofl
If the evidence isn't sufficient to convict then the jury will have no choice but to say not guilty. If they were given conflicting or skewed evidence then they were not able to convict. In many other cases, the jury let the accused walk free despite feeling in their hearts the person was guilty, because the evidence they were given wasn't enough.
And looking at the photos of the officer that were taken in the hospital after the attack..I'd expect someone with a "broken nose and orbital bone" to have a little bit of bruising on his face..wouldn't you?
Read the entire case he didn't have a broke anything. And the pics showed the ebrassions on his face and back of his head. He wasnt found guilty cause the evidence proved he was innocent. How someone feels has no determination in deciding if one is guilty or innocent. Its based off of evidence. This protest is based off of dumb peoples conformed bias opinion not over the facts of the case.
Yes I know that how someone feels has nothing to do with the conviction. That is literally what I said
It's called "mob mentality." It may look like there's a mass of lunatics, but in reality it's only a few lunatics who rile up a bunch of people to do stupid things. People are a lot braver in a group than they are on their own...
Durring the fight, Michael reached for the cops gun, where the gun eventually went off, with the bullet hitting Michael in the thumb. Michale then ran away, and then turned back around and charged at the cop again. When a 6 feet, 300 lb man comes charging towards you, after already trying to take your gun from you, he did what he had to do to protect himself.
Honestly its called group think.... when.one person.is really angry they bring a bunch of their friends in on.it and they immediately turn.off their right from.wrong senses and follow the group even if the group is doing something ridiculous. People who get sucked into the geoup usually behave like animals because of the way the group is so it only takes a few reaallllllllyyyy angry people to start a riot and people will be sucked in and thats why those things happen....
I like how people are still saying this is racist because the officer was found not guilty. His jury was made up of 9 white people and 3 black. The ratio is probably close to that of the community where it happened and made up of those same people. If it was a unanimous decision for the jury, how in the world can you call that racisim?? They viewed the evidence and came to a conclusion based on that evidence and the public saw fit to start looting and burning down businesses because of it. Im sorry to say this but if the black community there or anywhere else wants to be treated fairly and for there not to be stereotypes, then maybe those people who do those things should actually stop to think, "is this going to help our cause or just make us look the way we always have been or worse in the public eye?" Because quite frankly all this has done is made the rest of America look at those people in Ferguson and say, "yeah, I figured they would do something stupid like that." and yes, it is very ignorant. Rioting does nothing but destroy property and damage more lives. No point was made, no voice was heard and they haven't gotten anything from it aside from new shoes and whatever else they take from various stores....but I guess that makes it ok somehow. Bunch of idiots...
I for one have never been opposed to changing my viewpoint. This case has been clouded with a ton of bias and emotion rather than fact. Facts are something that I am seriously lacking because everyone's been playing up the race thing. Often people make it seem like the cop confronted him out of nowhere and then shot him. Which I'm wholly aware ISNT what happened just because it sounds so far fetched. Secondly, I've read consistently that there was a fight between Wilson and Brown but I was under the impression that a cop should know how to defend himself without a weapon. But seeing as you're saying that Brown reached for the gun and attacked the cop, clearly I need to read up on this more before I get carried away defending someone who is quickly becoming a not-so-innocent victim. ? And I use the term victim loosely. Moreover Wilson sees adamant that he did the right thing, unless he's a sociopath maybe he did actually do the right thing, and didn't just shoot Brown for no reason. Honestly, this whole thing was blown out of proportion. I've never looked at it as a racism thing, but a police brutality issue, because the same situation (where the cop uses unnecessary force to apprehend a situation) happens between cops and citizens of the same race, or when the cop is black and the citizen is white. ? Thank you for the info, it's nice to hear a different aspect of the argument.
The ONLY thing I will be contributing here, because its not worth getting caught up in: Police officers are not taught to shoot to incapacitate. They are taught to shoot to remove the threat. This officer did so. In addition, calling the deceased a teenager is bit misleading and is emotional vocabulary; in the eyes of the law he has been an adult (and would be punished accordingly for his actions) for many years.
Whats true reporting ? Rush Limbaugh or Fox LMAO. All news sucks ! There is no true reporting they report bias based on there listeners and political beliefs.
Martin Luther King was killed by a white man. He was not charged. Malcolm X was killed by a white man he was never found says the media. And now they dead facing us that white man killing black man is no crime on this white man's demonic world. God said THOU SHALL NOT KILL. No excuses.
