WHY THE FUCK ISN"T THERE A THREAD ON THIS


Heavily armed police have shut down Ferguson. There is a media blackout. Arresting reporters. The Missouri Militia supposedly has boots on the ground.

This is very fucked.

The cop shot the kid multiple times so there are probably two scenarios ...


first one one is the cop was a deranged murderer who just wanted to gun down an innocent kid. The thought of taking a life turned him on and finally an opportunity presented itself where he thought he could get away with gunning someone down so he killed a kid in cold blood.


two he legitimately feared for his safety and used his weapon to eliminate a perceived threat.

Read some news stories. Multiple witnesses said that the kid, after being shot at once, stop running FROM THE COP and put his hands above his head where he was then shot again multiple times. Fearing for his life my anus...

So I guess that just leaves deranged killer who was just looking for the chance to pop an innocent kid.


also... Some of the witnesses seem a little less than credible lol. One of them allegedly participated in a robbery with the dead kid beforehand? Not sure if that was confirmed, but I dont really care anyway. I've managed to not get shot by the cops... It's actually not that hard believe it or not.



so do we have to agree that deranged killer is the only option?

The officer was a psycho with a gun who thought he could get away with shooting a totally innocent kid. Don't be silly. That's the only conclusion were left with.

Police brutality isn't new, it's caused by loose regulations on the types of people who can become officers. It's the same thing with guns: put power in the wrong hands and people get hurt and/or killed.

The amount of people who are victim to police brutality is far higher than what is reported because the really bad cops will do whatever it takes to make sure you can't collect any evidence of brutality- including holding you at gunpoint to delete the video you took of them. They have no right to do so but use their gun to get their way.

Most cops are good, honest, and respectful people. Luckily those are the only types that I've encountered, although I've definitely met some racist cops. I hope I won't ever have to deal with the type of power hungry cop who lives to shit on others.

You say that like he just went up to the kid and shot him. The kid shouldn't have been fucking with the police in the first place, period. No one knows the real story; "Witnesses" are rarely ever credible, and I'm sure that holds true even more in this situation, with race being involved.

One of the witnesses is dead, that much I know.

I haven't even seen any news stories with them in it. Whenever these cases come up, people always side with their personal feelings and not the facts. Lots of people decide which camp they're going to side with before learning the whole story. It's the way it goes.

You are trying to paint this as a black and white situation and that just isn't the case.

You are also white and you'd be ignorant to say that there isn't racial tension between whites and blacks all over the country...of course you haven't been shot by cops, you live a a quaint little part of CT. Inner city =/= suburbs. And so you don't misconstrue what I'm saying, I'm not saying this took place in the inner city either.

Lol, even in the inner city I'm pretty sure it's quite easy for law abiding, good nature citizens to not be gunned down by police whether they're black white or orange. What the fuck?

It is far more likely than not that the kid did something to make the cop shoot. Otherwise the cop is jist a stone cold killer.

big mike was 300 lbs. a terrifyingly large man who could easily make someone think their life was threatened. msnbc tried to paint him as a choir boy but that looks like it's far from the truth. The truth will come out fully over the next few days.

The cop shot the kid and everyone immediately points to racism. If it was a white kid would this ever have been picked up by the media? Probably not. They are so outraged at the kids death but those black gangsters wouldn't think twice about going and killing the cop. So is there really an appreciation for life or are they just trying to create trouble? And another thing. How does the kids death justify the act of breaking into a store and stealing rims. While not every black person down their is bad, that just shows the kind of people we are dealing with here.

Christ dude. You're no better than Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson with that.


On a more important note, there was an independent forensic report done by a world-renowned pathologist and had some interesting conclusions

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/18/us/michael-brown-autopsy-shows-he-was-shot-at-least-6-times.html

...adding that all the bullets were fired into his front.


The bullets did not appear to have been shot from very close range because no gunpowder was present on his body. However, that determination could change if it turns out that there is gunshot residue on Mr. Brown's clothing, to which Dr. Baden did not have access


Mr. Johnson said that he hid behind a parked car and that Mr. Brown was struck by a bullet in his back as he ran away, an account that Dr. Baden's autopsy appears to contradict.


Still a lot to figure out, but things are slowly seemingly getting clearer.

Look at the article I quoted above. Goes in depth about it. Adds more confusion if you ask me. It indicates he was never shot with his back turned which discredits a witness's story.

Oliver Stewart is a funny man, but if I wanted to watch news spun in a liberal manner I'd watch CNN. However, the "Fuck the Police" written on the mailbox was priceless though.

The whole thing has gone out of control. You can completely ignore the shooting and the situation is still messed up. Under qualified cops wielding weapons/ armed vehicles like power hungry idiots and a community who is angry and wants justice, so they robbed and loot their own community.

You cant make this shit up.

It is a racial issue. A white cop shot and killed a black dude. Whether or not the cop himself considers himself racist, our society view's black people differently. Our media and movies are no help. It seems like that stigma is changing until another one of these incidents happen. If that was me and you in that situation the cop would may have not have shot one of us. If george zimmerman was following you instead of Martin, then you would most likely be alive. Martin, not so lucky
