Maybe it was 6 percent of the registered voters. If that were the case, that would mean that about 150 AAs, out of 10,000 or more, voted - then they have the audacity to riot and loot claiming racists cracker's are abusing them??

New witness, just interviewed on CNN said there was a pause in between the shots. He said there were initial shot(s), can't remember if it was plural, and then there was about a 30 second gap, and then there were more shots.


Doesn't change the scenario much, but just saw some info I hadn't heard before.

If medical records indicate Wilson suffered eye injuries, it won't change much. The argument will simply shift to it wasn't a life threatening injury, he banged his head on the door, he punched himself in the eye.

There's no reason to expect the 'it was murder' crew to be any different in this case than in the last Crump/Sharpton/Holder led racial injustice trial.

Well Crump Sharpton Family Lawyer Holder are not interested in justice. They are interested in pitchforks and ropes.

Disgusting

Well there is one sentence there that ABC got wrong.
I added the correction in red.


Brown, 18, was shot and killed by Wilson on Aug.9, and protesters and the MSM have been angrily calling for Wilson's arrest and indictment since that day.

So all of the officer's sources are hidden. And all the witnesses claiming an execution, are public.

Listen to the first few seconds of the tape. Dellwood and Jennings are both policed by St Louis County Police.
They are calling off St Louis County COGIS numbers and First Precinct beat numbers.

That could be verified through hospital records, and if those do not exist, the witness should not be viewed as credible.
