QUOTE Well, I would completely agree with you if the whole thing took place at the car, but once the guy ran away and the officer started chasing him things change. I would think an officer would realize he's not in danger any more and would use a taser instead of a gun. The officer fired 12 times, hit Brown six or seven times. Hit him two or three times from 35 feet.
35 feet away...taser, then jail.
I guess we all choose what we want to believe then. Some people can't wrap their brain around the idea that "good" people can sometimes do bad things. It doesn't compute so they refuse to listen to anything else.
QUOTE Included in the grand jury material released tonight after the announcement that no charges would be filed in the Michael Brown killing is a handwritten witness account stating that the teenager charged at Officer Darren Wilson “like a football player. Head down.”
The unidentified witness wrote that the 18-year-old Brown “has his arms out with attitude,” while “The cop just stood there.” The witness added, “Dang if that kid didn’t start running right at the cop like a football player. Head down.”
The witness told of hearing “3 bangs,” but “the big kid wouldn’t stop.”
The witness’s account of the unarmed Brown charging Wilson--even after he had been shot in the hand during a struggle at the cop’s patrol car--supports the officer’s contention that he fired a series of shots as Brown bore down on him.

Just remember the next time you want to frik with a cop that he/she can blow your brains out..
Cops are allowed to protect themselves from "Great bodily harm" if you are armed or NOT.. Educate your kids..
Brown was nothing but a big fat bully that deserved what he got.. An almost all white law enforcement department in a mostly black area is also wrong.. Good example of how important it is to VOTE..
If you don't Vote, don't bitch or burn down your neighborhood.. 
That fat punk is still hurting people in his own neighborhood, even after death..

Forget the hyped up comments about Giuliani. When he stated 93% of blacks killed are blacks, he was attacked for being racist. He was also right. No one reports about that. It isn't big news. It doesn't cause riots. It doesn't make people yell about inequality or civil rights. How many blacks were killed by blacks in just Chicago this week?
Here's the homicide stats for Chicago this year. As you can expect, it's mostly black on black.
Roz, about the 35 feet. You have to get a better concept of
distance. Have an adult pace off 20 yards from you and then charge at full tilt to run past you. See how quickly it happens. Now cut that time in half.

^^^ a friend of mine teaches that in CCW class, he'll have some large, slow moving guy step off 20-25 feet and show that he can usually cover that distance before a gun can be drawn.
