Not sure you are right.........Brown thought a lot like you and he isn't giving any interviews!
Brown was playing the bully roll that day with the clerk (video is proof) and he tried to act tough with the cop and lost. I don't envy Officer Wilson one bit but if I had to chose having him as my neighbor or Mike Brown I would easily chose the cop.
I think 100% of sane and fair minded Americans (or anyone in the world for that matter) would choose the officer as a neighbor over Michael Brown. No contest. Even the bleeding liberals who are whining now would make that same choice.
What? At least 5 people who where there stories were simliar depending on there vantage point. The consruction worker, the two young ladies on there way to work, the young man who CNN inteviwed who was looking out window then ran outside and MOST importantly the young man that was with Mike Brown. ALL FIVE stated Mike Brown was in a surrender position hands up in air when he was fatally shot. Now let me ask you have you been paying attention? SMDH
The grand jury had the facts so have you read the report yet? The 3 independent autopsies disagree with some of the witness statements (some of which were later deemed hearsay, not credible). The one young lady was adamant that "they didn't listen to my story" yet she admitted that she left for up to one minute to get her phone and all the shooting happened in 61 seconds.....hmmmm.
The grand jury worked on this for weeks? How much research have you done?
If the Grand Jury had indicted Officer Wilson, they would have been cheering and hooping and hollering and going YAY JUSTICE !!! GREAT GRAND JURY.. YEAH…
Part of me believes they would still have had some looting.....after all Christmas is coming and hey look there is a dollar store over there!
Poor little bully Darren. Take hiz pic he'll arrest you. If he wasn't a POS why didn't he ge t to stay in Jennings? Skinhead, jug eared, no chin, lady hipped ***** who got his power from a gun. Bet he don't go back to piggin in Ferguson. Why? He a punk ass blue *****
Seems to me that based on the evidence it was the "gentle giant" that was doing the bullying! Or did you not see the video of Brown roughing up the store owner either? Is that acceptable behavior to you? Is trying to fight a cop and go for his gun acceptable to you as well? If you're dumb enough to try and go for someone's gun (cop or not) you reap what you sow, because it's a good bet that it's not going to end well.
The police officer was at fault, because he pursued Michael Brown, when he should have just let it go.
Michael Brown was at fault, because he made the police officer angry, and grabbed for his gun.
Both were at fault. But racism towards black people from police officers does exist, so there are cases where this would be justified to argue about. This isn't one of those cases, though.
You know, I could attack you as easily and call you many names, but unlike you I will stay civilized and follow the Forum Rules.
I am relatively young, have advanced degrees, have worked all over the world, live and work in the largest city, and pay a lot of taxes so that these losers / looters don't have to work.
I replied to another poster who called for revolution, and I made the case that there are no grounds for it.

You ignorance and blindness in the matter doesn't change the reality. And just because you're tired of hearing the truth, doesn't make it less true.

What does that even mean? It makes absolutely no sense. Black community is exploited by the same left-wing radicals, who exploit other good causes, such environment, etc. etc.
What do they want? Equal-Opportunity laws, de-segregation laws make discrimination illegal. We have a uber-agressive Justice Department, with a hyper-active Civil Rights Division. War on poverty started 50-years ago, and as central Govt has gotten bigger, there is more poverty now.
Central Govt gave money to poor schools, now schools have become thug and baby factories.
Black teenage unemployment is the highest of any other group. Almost 75% of kids are born out of wedlock, most are in broken homes. Blacks receive the highest rate of welfare from all groups.
Yet, blacks find representation through these radicals, like Obama, J. Jackson, etc. They are running the country now. Blacks should be pissed at radical left-wings for ruining their lives, while pretending to make it better.
Or did you not see the video of Brown roughing up the store owner either?
Why do we sugarcoat it? Why are we afraid to say it as it is? Michael Brown committed assault and battery acts towards the store owner. And robbery.
Michael Brown committed assault-and-battery acts against the police officer. Wilson was supposed to apprehend him. That's what cops are paid to do -- put their lives in danger in order to safeguard ours.
It was originally being reported that the rioters would target other parts of the county. They practically barricaded the county police headquarters, a lot of businesses closed early, schools we're called off today, and they blocked some of the streets ahead of Bob McCullah reading the indictment. I've read that the National Guard wasn't immediately in Ferguson because they were expecting riots elsewhere.
But then for whatever reason they decided to burn down their own neighborhood and steal from their neighbors. It's still horrible what they did, but I am glad it didn't end up being the businesses in my neighborhood that got looted or burned down.

I am sure MOST of these people came to Ferguson to riot. Not the locals burning down the neighborhood stores where they shop.

I strongly disagree......Cop at fault for pursuing Brown? By the time the "pursuit" happened he already fought with the cop and the cop had already shot him......at that point the cop has to A. get this guy in custody and B. call for medical help if Brown actually got shot or was otherwise injured.
Lets take your perspective, Cop shoots Brown and doesn't pursue. Brown is hit by the bullet, runs around the block and dies on the side of someone's house. Now the cop will be accused of shooting someone and not rendering aid/ let the kid die like he was hunting hogs or something.
Once the fight/shooting started, Officer Wilson was fully engaged until Brown was in custody.
