All you hear on here is fear of the black man.

You decry a lack of evidence, then you go to "More than likely?"

Caring is fine. Wanting to ensure that police brutality is punished is a good goal. Wanting a show trial and quick hanging is not seeking Justice, it is seeking Vengeance and unless some get that there will be more riots. Watch and see what happens when the evidence comes out, if it is not what some want to see they will call it false and ignore it, that is not the sign of someone seeking Justice.
I will put it this way, with the evidence we have today I believe the officer was within his rights and it was a justified shooting. IF the evidence later shows that I am wrong I will come back here and admit that I was wrong and jumped to the wrong conclusion, I will even start a Thread for just that purpose. Would You be willing to do the same, any other Brown supporters willing to do it?

Kind of like the officer will get if he shows his face in public.


Was it worth it? His life is ruined now. He will never feel safe in this country.


Maybe he should have manned up and spoke to the public instead of running and hiding like a criminal.

Yes, I am sure he could have just explained what happened to the crowd and nothing bad at all would have happened. REALLY?
Psst, he did not run and hide it was the police dept that did not release his name, and that is common procedure.

Maybe brown should have just not robbed a store and attacked a police officer so we could concentrate on the important things... like obama's vacations.

Well they were all standing around right after it happened and no one attacked him. They were real savages weren't they?


He might as well move to another country.

Just not with the Palestinians.

There's not more evidence that Brown attacked Wilson than he didn't.

We can give each other plenty of 'sources report,' not evidence of anything.

Exactly. Where is the evidence that any of the cops who have used excessive force have ever been attacked by people in the community, at the scene or after?

To my knowledge, I know of no incident like that.

He should. Just like the other guy should have before the persecution tried to ruin his life. But, just like the other guy, he'll manage if acquitted.

Were you this sloppy dissecting the case?
First, you need to calm down. Second, I have not dissected the case as the evidence is not there. I have said I am inclined to believe the officer's account as related by a source because it sounds most logical. That is hardly a dissection. Either way, you are obviously inclined to believe one thing and one thing only. I hardly think waiting until there is evidence and not getting riled up over the media fanning the flames of anger to be foolish. Take that as you wish.
