First time for everything I guess,CNN/FOX is covering all this live.
LOOKIT all the politicians ,is that Clinton over there?
Washington D.C. is sending 3 hi ranking big wigs there too,wonder if Joe Biden will be present?
 

Quite disgusting !!!

The Policeman thought he was in danger and the perp didn't stop as he was instructed to do..
...there were photos shown later of him robbing someone, so he was a criminal !

This will lead to more riots, looting and violence, now that they can feel that are justified,
because why else would major politicians be there???

The Liberals are pandering to looters and thieves..
as usual !

PC wins the day once more.. common sense loses
 
IMO, I think everyone should wait until all the FACTS/EVIDENCE is complete before saying much of anything. Of course, the family is not going to say anything bad about their son. Would anyone think they would?

One black Senator already stated that IF this officer isn't completely convicted, the community will go back to square one........looting, rioting and burning. Even shooting. The officer can be arrested and that will keep everyone in the community happy.........for awhile. If the officer doesn't get arrested........look out!

Perhaps the town of Ferguson should be ALL Black folks! Then it would be Black-on-Black crime.
 

What ever happens, it will be managed so that the good guys win. This is a nation that loves white hats.
 
This case just goes to show how out of control the US police appear to be, they seem to have a policy of shooting first and asking question afterwards! I thank my lucky stars I live in the UK, where the police are held accountable for their actions, and don't routinely carry firearms!
 
Stop the nonsense! Turning this kid from a criminal to an angel is tortured thinking for your own feelings of racial guilt!
 
He's not an angel but I still wonder how he ended up dead for walking down the centre of the road. If he was hit by a truck I would understand. But six bullets from a police firearm; the last one to the brain? This I don't understand.

I am waiting to hear all the evidence presented in court.
 
The proof of his defiance and attacking the officer is coming out despite the efforts to make him an innocent victim...
 
Just remember this, Justme, you WEREN'T there when it happened!

Very few people were.
That's why an inquiry/inquest is needed before passing judgement either way.

Still, common sense would indicate that the officer could not have been in fear of his life.
There would need to be some very clear evidence before coming to the conclusion that he was.Very few people were.

To many are coming to the conclusion that this shooting was completely the officer's fault............now, that is just plain BULL!!

What some folks just don't want to think about is that this kid just robbed a store and "strong-armed" the clerk. It's all on video that can't be disputed. So, if this kid, in anger, can push a clerk, he could easily do the same to that officer. That is just fact.

Funny how the media keeps saying "he was unarmed", but they don't say a thing about him trying to get the officer's gun away from him. And, if he would've got the officer's service weapon away from him, what would have been next..........a dead officer? Oh, that's right, nobody is suppose to think about that!

It may turn out that the officer was wrong, but so was this kid!
 
Well........"to each their own" about this shooting. Some will say it was justified, while others will say it wasn't. Time will tell.

Execution? Com'on! How far can you stretch this? Your comment has brought this conversation to the point of absurdity!

I'm waiting for the evidence too, I think it's odd to have everything hushed up from the very beginning about the officer's story, I don't recall ever hearing an account of the whole story given by himself...just some 'friends' who came out of the woodwork later on, giving hearsay.

Nobody really knows who is at fault at this point. I find it odd that Brown was left laying in the street like that too, instead of getting emergency medical attention immediately, or taken to the morgue immediately in an ambulance. Perhaps some evidence would be presented that I could support the cop's actions, but somehow I doubt it.

The police in this country are not supposed to be an execution squad. Regardless of whether this kid was an "angel" or not, this was outrageous.

You're absolutely correct Sunny, it's one thing for them to be concerned for their safety in certain situations, that's the job they signed up for....but the 'us against them' mentality, has taken them overboard, IMO. And when I say "them" in 'us against them', I don't mean blacks, I mean all American citizens in this country.

If they pull me over for not using my signal, I better be sure not to move suddenly, keep both my hands on the steering wheel, put the interior light on in my car so they can see me better than I can see them, and hope to hell they don't blow my head off for no reason.

I will be treated as a guilty criminal until I can prove my innocence, that's not the way it was meant to be in America. That is not the way it was in the 1960s, and it should not be the way it is today. There's something terribly wrong with the system, and people looking the other way is not helping. I agree, whether this kid was an angel or not, he shouldn't have been killed willy-nilly like that. Show me the facts, and I might have a change of heart. Until I see the evidence, I will keep an open mind.
 
Well, I'm with Warri, Sunny and Seabreeze....whether the crime is stealing a handful of cigars, standing in the middle of the street are shoving the store keeper, none warrant being shot dead, too many of our police are trigger happy.
 
To those who automatically assume that there was no way the officer could have been in fear for his life just because Brown wasn't brandishing a gun or a knife, I must say you couldn't be farther off base, or missing the point any more.

If the accounts of Brown attacking & beating Officer Wilson's face are true, & it's also true that Brown charged him again, that in itself is justification for shooting Brown. It is not the duty of ANY police officer to take a beating or put him/herself at risk of taking a beating just to make the public happy. They have every right to defend not only their life, but their physical well being as well.

Not one of you who are saying Brown's actions didn't merit being shot, have no idea what kind of injuries this 6'2", 300 lb behemoth might have inflicted on the much smaller Wilson, had he not stopped Brown's charge.

The coroner's report showing where the bullets entered Brown's body, suggest not only that Brown was facing Wilson & moving towards him, but possibly even that Wilson tried to wound him first & only delivered the fatal shot to the head as a last resort.

I fully believe this will all come out in time.
