you think:

If the black population would:

graduate school, I mean 100%
excel in colleges degrees
zero crime
zero out of wedlock birth
quit hanging out at night
quit drinking, drugs
attended church weekly
took care of their family
kept employment

became the beacon of society

you think in twenty years, they would not be profiled

If you watch the helicopter video, he falls down and to his left. His right side/back is towards the police. The only way he could have entrance wounds on the left side of his legs and torso is if those hit him while he was still standing. (Shot 7 & 8 in the image above)
Let us simply quote the Dr who did the autopsy...

"The proposition that has been presented that he was assailing the officers, meaning he was facing the officers, is inconsistent with the prevailing forensic evidence," Omalu said at a news conference with family attorney Benjamin Crump.

Either the doctor did not see the helicopter video or he is outright lying. The video shows Clark walking past the picnic table towards the officers, take a step forward, then fall to the left onto his knees. How do you dispute the video evidence?

Seems like the examiner's political leanings may be coming into play here

This was a private doctor hired by the family to perform the autopsy. The official autopsy report has not been released.

The guy is a nationally renowned pathologist. Likely outpoints anyone in Sacramento. You get the best available and object because you got the wrong answer.

This is not difficult stuff. You look at the holes in the person and determine in what direction the bullet was going. Simple.

But too much for those who know the truth whether it is true or not.

Except that he put a spin on the findings:

"The proposition that has been presented that he was assailing the officers, meaning he was facing the officers, is inconsistent with the prevailing forensic evidence,"


He may not have been facing the cops when shot, but it's leap to say he wasn't facing them or didn't move towards them before turning away

He presented the facts. The guy was shot in the back. You don't like the facts so you impute malice to his presentation. That is what the right does. If you don't like the facts impute bad things to the presenter.

The victim is in his backyard being pursued by unknown people who did not identify themselves anywhere in the affair. He is unarmed and trying to avoid the interlopers. Actually if he had been armed and killed them both he would have a pretty good self defense.

I would like to know how "righteous" his activities were that night and on other occasions.
