Probably as many as a cop shooting an unarmed suspect = not many.

I agree it shows bullying - of which bullies usually pick on those smaller or meeker than themselves.
Don't know if a bully would act the same with someone else who had a gun in their hand, or with
someone around their size. My experience is that most bullies, cow down when confronted, not
the other way around.

If it turns out that Darren Wilson's face was injured (and it looks to be that way) then I guess the answer to the bolded is a resounding yes.

And holy crap. Now Brown is simply a "bully"? You're going a bit off the rails, don't you think?

Funny, but Michael Baden was asked about that on FOX, and he mentioned the video of Wilson shown
immediately following the shooting, stating it appeared that Wilson was not injured.

Does he know something, we don't? I don't have the link but it was on that dark haired
judge show - what's her name....

What more is Brown at this point in time??? We do not have concrete evidence of a beating of the
police officer. We can see the tape in the convenience store and he looks a bully to me.

Some reports have Wilson's face swollen, others have a fractured orbital socket, and CNN has
it refuted all together.

In any case, it certainly does not help that there is no evidence of Wilson's appearance, beyond that tape.
I'm sure the FBI or whoever, has blown that video up by now.
We will find out at a later date Wilson's injuries, if any.
At that time, I will re-comment on Brown's behavior

Cop involved in Ferguson shooting has fractured eye socket: report | New York Post

"Jake Shepard, a nurse who has been friends with Wilson for 14 years, said Wilson did the right thing by defending himself against the hulking teen."

I wonder - did he turn Green too
He was 6'4" and 300 lbs. That would be the definition of a hulking teen to me.

Why would the FBI use that poor quality tape? They would look at Officer Wilson's hospital records.

They will look at both.
No ambulance treated Wilson at the scene (that I am aware of). They will follow the time line of
when Wilson arrived at the hospital and was treated, for whatever he was treated for.

BTW, the tape is not that poor of quality as you appear to think.
