The problem is with all the hoopla and riots and this and that...there is NO WAY it will ever come out that the shooting was justified...EVER.
I'm not saying it was or that is wasn't excessive...but the "friend" will go to his grave without saying a word IF the truth is MB came after the cop.
How do you know if you get there, if you don't know where you are going?..oh and I had 1,713 post on the "other board"..I hate being a rookie again!

Nope, yer spot on

---Did you hear the state politician that said if the cop was not charged , the current riots will seem like nothing compared to what will happen. Al and the boys as always are using this kids death as a reason to stir up racial tension
Darren Wilson, the Ferguson, Mo., police officer whose fatal shooting of Michael Brown touched off more than a week of demonstrations, suffered severe facial injuries, including an orbital (eye socket) fracture, and was nearly beaten unconscious by Brown moments before firing his gun, a source close to the department's top brass told FoxNews.com.
“The Assistant (Police) Chief took him to the hospital, his face all swollen on one side,” said the insider. “He was beaten very severely.”
According to the well-placed source, Wilson was coming off another case in the neighborhood on Aug. 9 when he ordered Michael Brown and his friend Dorain Johnson to stop walking in the middle of the road because they were obstructing traffic. However, the confrontation quickly escalated into physical violence, the source said..
“They ignored him and the officer started to get out of the car to tell them to move," the source said. "They shoved him right back in, that’s when Michael Brown leans in and starts beating Officer Wilson in the head and the face.
The source claims that there is "solid proof" that there was a struggle between Brown and Wilson for the policeman’s firearm, resulting in the gun going off – although it still remains unclear at this stage who pulled the trigger. Brown started to walk away according to the account, prompting Wilson to draw his gun and order him to freeze. Brown, the source said, raised his hands in the air, and turned around saying, "What, you're going to shoot me?"
At that point, the source told FoxNews.com, the 6 foot, 4 inch, 292-pound Brown charged Wilson, prompting the officer to fire at least six shots at him, including the fatal bullet that penetrated the top of Brown's skull, according to an independent autopsy conducted at the request of Brown's family.
Wilson suffered a fractured eye socket in the fracas, and was left dazed by the initial confrontation, the source said. He is now "traumatized, scared for his life and his family, injured and terrified" that a grand jury, which began hearing evidence on Wednesday, will "make some kind of example out of him," the source said.
The source also said the dashboard and body cameras, which might have recorded crucial evidence, had been ordered by Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson, but had only recently arrived and had not yet been deployed.
St. Louis County police, who have taken over the investigation, did not return requests for comment about possible injuries suffered by Wilson.
Edward Magee, spokesman for St. Louis County Prosecutor Robert McCullough, said the office will not disclose the nature of the evidence it will reveal to a grand jury.
"We'll present every piece of evidence we have, witness statements, et cetera, to the grand jury, and we do not release any evidence or talk about evidence on the case."
Nabil Khattar, CEO of 7Star Industries – which specializes in firearms training for law enforcement and special operations personnel – confirmed that police are typically instructed to use deadly force if in imminent danger of being killed or suffering great bodily injury.
“You may engage a threat with enough force that is reasonably necessary to defend against that danger,” he said.
Wilson is a six-year veteran of the Ferguson police force department, and has no prior disciplinary infringements.
Massive protests have since taken over the St. Louis community, prompting Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon last Thursday to place Highway Patrol Capt. Ron Johnson at the helm of security operations in an effort to calm ongoing tensions. The federal government is also investigating the death, and Attorney General Eric Holder has taken the lead – calling “the selective release of sensitive information” in the case “troubling.”
On Friday, Ferguson police released surveillance video showing Brown stealing cigars from a convenience store just before his death. Jackson came under intense criticism for disclosing the tape and a related police report as he also insisted that the alleged robbery and the encounter with Wilson were unrelated matters. Brown’s family, through their attorney, suggested the tape’s release was a strategic form of “character assassination.”
However, FoxNews.com’s source insisted that there was absolutely no spin agenda behind the tape’s release and that there were a number of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) media requests filed by media outlets seeking it. Tom Jackson is said to have waited on publicly releasing it, and did not want it shown until Brown’s grieving mother first had the chance to see it.
“He defied the FOIAs as long as he could,” noted the insider. “A powerful, ugly spin has completely ruined public discourse on this whole situation.”

Most of that sounds credible except this. This is likely where the whole thing will hinge. Who charges a police officer with a drawn gun? I am not making a judgment on this. Just saying that I think this is the part where it is going to get sticky, and it sounds like we will have nothing more than eyewitness statements which are usually not that reliable.At that point, the source told FoxNews.com, the 6 foot, 4 inch, 292-pound Brown charged Wilson, prompting the officer to fire at least six shots at him, including the fatal bullet that penetrated the top of Brown's skull, according to an independent autopsy conducted at the request of Brown's family.
Metaphors be with you!
A drugged up hot head who has no regard for authority...
Everything progressives do is aimed at weakening democracy, capitalism and the social and cultural institutions that support those things...... They are about subjugating people and being a ruling class.
And/or a thug that reaches across the counter at a liquor store and takes what he wants and then grabs the store clerk by the throat and shoves him out of his way, then bows up on him.

Just the usual suspects responding. Like I said I am not defending anyone in this. Doubt there is a good resolution, but in this story the police say one thing and something completely different is shown.
Metaphors be with you!
Sky,
Not saying it's true or not...but this kid's background is not the saint everyone says he was. Also, he already was calling the cop's "bluff"...."what ya going to do shoot me?"...if it indeed happened that way. Basically saying I'm betting you either won't shoot me or you'll miss me so I'm headed for you.
As KC/8th would say...you siting huffington is as good as Turd siting fox.
How do you know if you get there, if you don't know where you are going?..oh and I had 1,713 post on the "other board"..I hate being a rookie again!
Having read the Foxnews piece, I can say with no reserve, as a
5'10" 210 pound individual that if I were charged by a 6' 4" 292
pound dude..no matter the color..after he had busted me in the
face..and I am an armed, duly appointed peace officer, I'd bust
caps until the threat was eliminated, with absolutely no hesitation.
All this, of course, assuming the piece is accurate...doubt we'll ever
really know for certain...just sayin....
If the story is true absolutely. Of course we have no reason to distrust the police....
After seeing the robbery video, MB does not act like he really gave a f***
Metaphors be with you!
problem is ain't no way in hell the buddy changes his story....
Holder, Sharpton, jackson have already already tried, convicted and sentenced the police officer.
How do you know if you get there, if you don't know where you are going?..oh and I had 1,713 post on the "other board"..I hate being a rookie again!
Or maybe a guy that just kicked a cops *** and thinks the cop is a ***** that won't shoot him.
So yes, there are several scenarios, that make this a logical course of events.
But the main point is that we don't know the facts right now. That's why I never enjoy the discussions of these things. Like the Trayvon Martin thing. There's no point until all the facts come out.
Citing and this was on multiple sources. He definitely did not raise his hand so the police account was bs.
