    Update: More questions regarding the Ferguson- Michael Brown case.
    "Seven or eight African American eyewitnesses have provided testimony consistent with Wilson’s account, but none have spoken publicly out of fear for their safety, The Post’s sources said."

    Very troubling, Indeed.

    It not about skin color, religion, size, sex, politics, or any other division of a human being we can think of, it's all about attitude.

    As interesting as this video is, the comments below the video will keep you entertained and amazed for hours.

    The video of Rodney King was right; they had to taser and re-taser him and the s.o.b. still wouldn't comply.

    You call him a "young man". I call him a thug. Men don't bully shopkeepers while stealing from them. Men don't attack lawmen.

    "They are human they get mad and do bad things without thinking."

    You're not allowed to "do bad things without thinking" any more than you're allowed to do them with thinking.

    The young thug was the aggessor; anyone who attacks a cop is a greater threat to the civilian population. We will never know what property and lives were saved by those six bullets.

    My only questions are; did the officer fire more than six times? If so, where'd the other shots go, and does he need more time on the range?

    Four in the arm and only two in the head? None center mass? Maybe he *does* need more range time... or maybe he was rattled and disoriented from the beating he had just taken.

    Um... you have GOT to be kidding. No, seriously. Where are you a plant from? Which media outlet? Or maybe... The dotgov? Maybe stirring things up and getting the media to lookie-loo? Kind of reminds me of some of the tactics adhered to by my Anarchist ex-cohorts... Skew and slam and incite. Commando tactics.

    Don't tell me I know not of what I speak - for years ago, I *was* one of them. At least I have the honesty to admit it now. And have outgrown the immaturity of such tripe.

    Oh yeah... -1.

    Time to get a CCW so that you can protect yourself. All the cops can do is wash and wax the street afterward.

    It works, tho the hypenization adds the emphasis that they're both thugs - and ugly! :-)

    "It is unfortunate that this police department had not yet installed dash-cams. Much speculation and knee jerk reaction could have been avoided. " Might have given the useful idiots in the media a little to chew on but the race baiters like Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson would not have cared. It would have all been viewed at the white mans propaganda because after all any time a white policeman kills a minority it is by definition racism for 2 reasons. 1. Original white sin...all white people have it, even ones like me from England whose grandfather never owned a slave and 2. Because the aforementioned race baiters have to make a living and cannot unless someone is squawking about race.

    "Many" will now only hear what "they" want to hear, nothing more, nothing less, period.

    If with all the information we have to date, accomplice admitting Brown attacked and came back again confronting, and the video with the background sound describing the same scenario by a real witness, then the officer has to be acquitted. If not, if he is found guilty, the black movement to a peaceful future will be set back another 20 years because of a few liars that started the controversy, and the likes of the Al Sharpton's that do not want this to come to a peaceful resolution..

    This will continue to happen as long as we continue to pay people to be out of work and produce illegitimate, fatherless hyper masculine children. The error is compounded when you have large free housing complexes where these sorts of people are concentrated.

    You do have a way with words. What do you think of a contraction of your "thug-uglies" into just "thuglies"?

    "a DOJ which weighs all the evidence first is what is needed right now in Ferguson"

    Good luck on that.

    It will not end this nonsense, it will confirm in the minds of the race baiters that "whitey" has put the fix in and that there is no "justice" for any minority. The only thing that was done wrong by the officials here is to hide keep quiet about the extent of the Officers injuries. Even if they were minor they should have transported him to the hospital and made a big deal about the fact that he was at the hospital. Instead they said nothing and allowed the race baiters and the useful idiots in the media to announce at the beginning of every newscast that ..."we can all agree that there was excessive force" all if this with no information as to what exactly happened. Let me tell you....having been in a bunch of fights in my life, just because one assailant has no gun does not automatically mean that the use of a firearm is un-justified. I can kill someone without a firearm, anyone who has had his ass beat....and I have....can tell you a guy with no gun is NOT UNARMED!

    Hello eddieh,
    It does seem odd that it has not been picked up by at least some of the MSM. However, if it were so, it is clear that many of the MSM outlets would not wish to contradict the narrative they have fostered.
    Time will tell.
    Respectfully,
    O.A.

    I doubt this storey is true or the media would have bee nall over it, but I also find it hard to believe even a bad cop would pull someone through a window. Remember innocent till PROVEN guilty' or as a lawyer would say innocent till proven babkrupt.

    rmcd is a successful individual with children who have grown up to be successful and accomplished as well. Yet he is an apologist for those who choose to live in anger and resist productive living. Sharp criticism should be the order of the day-instead he apologizes. oh, and everyone is racist. he should stop apologizing for his "race" and denounce a culture for its blame mentality. See people as INDIVIDUALS. I'm so sick of the race card.

    rmcd, if you spent more time on this site you would realize we spend a significant amount of time talking about the police state and brutality of police. There's probably 3-4 posts a week on incidents. What's happening in St. Louis could be peaceful protests. Instead it is drawing thugs from other communities who are opportunists for stealing others' property and damaging property. That's not anger over police brutality, that's straight up thievery. Those who are not looting who may be hugely disruptive and menacing in their "anger" are keeping law abiding citizens from leaving their houses, getting supplies and food, MEDICINE, DOCTORS appointments. What do we call that? at the least it is "without thinking" at the most it is thug and bully behavior. While the unemployment rate remains high for able bodied young men- Mr. Brown, who clearly had a bright future-he was to attend college in the fall-to throw all of that away by stealing, shows the "without thinking" going on. Why isn't there thinking? IF you are not working from 8-5 or 11-7 (plenty of jobs listed in the area for night-time low skilled labor as an entry into employment) there's plenty of time to better yourself and prospects. You can look up free courses online for almost every subject. Instead, anger rules the day. Who cares the color of those youth raised hand to mouth welfare, free education, when even so violence rules their neighborhood and the easy dissipation into drugs and drug trade. Yes, that is the fault of the police. sure is

    The evidence being leaked out says that the officer was being attacked, that his eye socket was damaged and Brown was trying to get the officer's gun. This incident warranted no more attention than Groundhog Day. Fifteen seconds of air time nationally and two minutes locally. In the time all the nonsense has been swirlling in Ferguson, black on black crime has seen nearly a dozen black youths killed.

    will the looters return what they stole? will the 0 administration walk?
    will the officer ever live a comfortable life again in ferguson or will he have to relocate like someone in witness protection?

    My prediction:
    1. Wilson will be cleared. It will be found that Wilson prevented Brown from giving him a return beat-down that could have resulted in the cop's death. Being annually qualified as a shooter for 21 years, I just flat know your shots will go all over the target if you are badly hurt and stressed out.
    2. Race hustlers like Al Sharpton will then bellow blather that will throw the protesters into a frenzy. Wilson is supposed to be found guilty in their mind's eye. Just like O.J. Simpson was supposed to be acquitted despite being a double murderer, such nonsense is supposed to somehow make up for all the abuse blacks have endured in the past.
    3. Ferguson will be trashed again in reaction. More lives may be lost. Maybe this will end the storm if it does not expand to other cities.
    4. Michael Brown the victim photo T-shirts will continue to sell for about a year.
    5. Race hustlers will go unpunished for any death or damage their braying has caused. Anyone who attempts to sue someone like Al Sharpton will be branded a racist. They will all be back to hustle the next racially-charged incident.
    6. Wilson will have to hide for the rest of his life. Plastic surgery and a name change may be a good idea. Or moving to some place like Australia.
