The victim allegedly shoplifted before the encounter with the officer, he wasn't involved in a high-stakes bank robbery. I doubt he felt like it was all or nothing at that point.
FYI, for those who are upset about the violence and looting:
The troublemakers are not from the neighborhood. These agent provocateurs are people who have come in to cause problems.
it was not right to even shoplift.. just another excuse to make you think what he was doing was not so bad. even if he took only a pack of gum.. it aint right.
so sad for the innocent store owners who did nothing to deserve getting looted and burned down and one shop owner had bullets shot thru his door.. if he had not left 10 minutes earlier, he'd be dead.
now the town is worse off for the shop owners who lost their business, I hope insurance will help them recover.
I am afraid for the upcoming riots if the rioters already now, do not get what they want.
If you have ever seen the movie Rosewood, (true story about a town in Florida which folks got mad at stuff and burned the town down, it was scary, and it was a town with wonderful residents but idiots (cant say the word I really want to say here) decided to terrorize the town, burn it down, old grandmother got shot trying to reason with the people).. history repeats itself sadz
If officer wilson had injuries, where are the pictures? Why aren't they being plastered all over the media like Killerman's photos were during the Trayvon Martin case?
I hope someone identifies Officer Go F Yourself, and he gets put on administrative duty.
What is wrong with people? Yes, go ahead & antagonize officers who have their weapons drawn. Just stupid. Why even go to those protests? Do you really want to be involved in that? What are the chances that you could possibly get shot not even by an officer but by some random protestor?

Why, so you can play the victim card at will. Keep poking someone with a stick then cry brutality when they swing back.
