Good point. When natural disasters happen, or in this case a riot, I always wonder how it affects the little guy living week to week, paycheck to paycheck. Thru no fault of his own he can't pay for anything. Now look at all the hard working people who's lives are also being damaged.

At this stage they are broadcasting specifically for idiot viewers.

Nothing says "justice" when it comes to a white cop shooting a black man better than black people burning down and robbing a bunch of Korean, Indian and Pakistani owned gas stations and convenience stores.

More brilliance from the bottom feeders of society.

Tony,

I love you, but that is such a garbage, link bait, political blogger's complete and utter vomiting of wild speculation and reads without any merit whatsoever.

i get the whole scenario? from reading the testimony released today?

no one in their right mind does what he did to the officer initially. Had he acted like a normal, rational person this would have been avoided.

but? we as taxpayers? the police spent millions of our dollars on non-lethal arms.. like stun guns? the officer said in his own words, i didn't carry one because it was too heavy and uncomfortable.

if he had? perhaps the kid would have been zapped?. unconscious and arrested? as he should have been.

Or maybe the cop shoots in the leg or something?

aren't they trained to use a weapon?

but shooting 10 times?

i mean, that doesn't strike you as a wee bit excessive?

And where's the backup? I mean where I live, and get a traffic ticket there's 2 cop cars up your rear end?

You are totally correct BUT keeping racism alive and well is what American politics is all about. It is an easy issue to keep people divided on and a divided people are much more easy to control and manipulate.

This is business as usual in the USA.

"Thinks" was murdered is the opportune word here. "Knows" isn't possible, because that was proven wrong by physical evidence. You can't know something is true if you weren't there, unless the evidence proves it. Education is key here. If people don't even understand the laws that they live under, how can they interpret them correctly?

Here are facts:

1) MB committed robbery at a liquor store. Proven fact with physical evidence.
2) MB committed an assault on the liquor store owner. Proven fact with physical evidence.
3) Brown becomes a suspect and a BOLO is issued by Ferguson PD.
4) Wilson identifies MB carrying stolen cigarillos and attempts to detain and question. Proven fact with evidence.
5) Brown attacks the policeman, committing additional felonies of assault, etc. Proven fact with evidence.
6) Officer fears for his life under use of force laws and fires his weapon at MB. Proven fact with evidence.
7) Brown stumbles back from the shot and attempts to flee the crime scene. Proven fact with evidence.
8) Wilson pursues MB and orders to stop. Proven fact with evidence.
9) Brown turns and charges Wilson creating a threat to Wilson's life under deadly force laws. Proven fact with evidence.
10) Wilson fires repeatedly into MB to stop the threat under use of force and deadly force authorization laws. Proven fact with evidence.
11) MB is subdued by the rounds fired and expires on the street. Proven fact with evidence.
13) Multiple black witnesses recount the same story as Officer Wilson's story. Proven fact with evidence.
14) Black grand jury members find that there is no evidence to indict Officer Wilson.

I fail to find a murder in this massive pile of physical evidence that is without assumption or biased.

Surely the Brown family can see that the evidence in it's purest, and most physical form indicates that their son made a series of very bad decisions that ultimately caused him to lose his life under the guidelines of the very laws designed to protect everyone equally.

People need to set aside emotion and look at the facts and the application of law. They are completely missing the point on law. The law says that if an officer fears for his life or the life of another, he CAN and will shoot you. Legally.

Not sure what people are really missing here. It's not murder if it's legal, unless YOU say so of course. But that isn't what counts. We live by and under laws in this country, not what a specific subset of the population decides is right or wrong.

The killing of Michael Brown by police in Ferguson, Missouri, was no anomaly: As we reported yesterday, Brown is one of at least four unarmed black men who died at the hands of police in the last month alone. There are many more cases from years past. As Jeffrey Mittman, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union's Missouri chapter put it in a statement of condolence to Brown's family, "Unarmed African-American men are shot and killed by police at an alarming rate. This pattern must stop."
