Question, has anyone but me pulled up the Google map street and satellite pictures?

Notice all the grassy knolls in the area?

The doctors must be lying. Perhaps ellemint an gtown can call and give the hospital the correct information.

Trial by Twitter and Youtube has already been conducted and Wilson is guilty.
Besides the grainy far away footage that shows no evidence of injury, he wasn't making any attempt to poke at his fractured face. This is their proof

I remember the same song and dance with Zimmerman. Grainy black and white footage shows no injury = proof of no injury. Yet a week later when evidence was allowed to be released to the public, his nose was swollen and crooked and he had a bleeding gash to the head.

No, I am the perfect example of someone married to someone who used to work for a State Police
Forensic Laboratory as a Forensic Chemist

Blood, semen, ballistics, DNA are pretty exact now. EVERYONE leaves a trace.

I would be careful with anything from Gateway Pundit. Odds are he does have a source telling him something similar to what was published, but what was published could be a significant embellishment.

They didn't have that same outlook when the troops were walking the streets in Boston did they ?
Those bearcats were a welcome sight in their eyes.
True the whining about storm troopers did not come until everyone was nice and safe. Always easy to be a Monday morning quarterback, not as easy to actually play in the game.

You keep insisting on this even though I posted links several times. Is there some reading comprehension problem?

Which two events?

Robbery and stopping of Brown and Johnson on the street - no.

Robbery and shooting - yes.

Would you like me to give you the links for the fifth time?

Default No wonder the media and most democrat politicians have been criticizing the local police handling crowd control.....

St. Louis County Police tactical team : Gallery

...it's all becoming clear now.

I spoke out about it and was called paranoid and a member of the tin foil hat brigade.
Then again..the Patriot Act allowed it.

All those bullets paid for by DHS went somewhere.
All that money to help the LE's fight "terrorism" has been turned on us.

Watching those live feeds of Ferguson MO was like watching the US military occupy a foreign country.
And the media were corralled which limited some coverage.
One media guy said they have more freedom covering wars in foreign countries then they do civil unrest in the US.

All that "urban training" is for military when they go overseas. Still believe that one ?
I think all that urban training in realistic setting now is to condition people to get used to seeing Blackhawks flying in the sky.
That's my prediction.

Nothing is pure perfect but forensics is getting there

You'll never see them debating the blood type, a bullet, the semen, the DNA. Only the reliability of how those results were obtained and/or tampered with. e.g. O.J. Simpson case.

Good call, but it looks like they picked choice #4.

4. It was a love tap and only a tiny bone was broken. (Apparently "fractured" and "broken" mean very different things in some dictionaries. Mine has them listed as synonyms.)

and had them rephrase it to the next person, I'd really be curious what the final sentence would
end up like.

Nothing like rearranging the descriptive....
