New Witness to Michael Brown Shooting

We can infer that she got caught up in the outrage and came out later in the process as a witness and thus might have already had her perception altered by the unrelenting message being given to the African-American community by not just white liberal media, but their own race-baiting leaders who are jumping on these cases to benefit themselves, not their community.

Label me a sceptic.


If only there had been an impartial (that is, white) witness. :rolleyes:
 
I don't think I'm judging too quickly. I originally was giving the cop the benefit of the doubt, as required under our law, which presumes him innocent until proven guilty. I still give him that, legally, but I'm just saying things don't look good for him, at this point. He was fully justified in shooting Brown if Brown attacked him. He was even fully justified in shooting Brown in the back, legally, as Brown was fleeing, if Brown had attacked him. He was not justified, legally or otherwise, in shooting Brown if Brown had stopped fleeing, and had turned around and raised his hands. If that was how it all happened, it's murder.

You and half America stepped in shit.

Yes, what a shame that white folks enjoy rugged bootstrappy individualism, while black folks habitually revert to tribal behavior and norms. We just can't trust 'em, knowhutImean? :rolleyes:

Its a great day when a cop shoots a feral democrat.
 
And Michael Brown deserves to be known as a suspect in a strong arm robbery:

One small point of clarification the 18 yr old "teen" was 6’ 4”, 292lbs.

This is all important in understanding how things evolved, but the final few seconds before the fatal shot or shots were fired are what may send the cop to prison. He may have done everything correctly, up until those final few seconds, but then went one step too far. It all depends on whether Brown had turned around and put his hands up before he was fatally shot.
 
It is claimed the suspect and an accomplice shoved the officer into his car an assaulted him in a struggle for his gun. It is said that at least one shot was fired inside the car. Course the facts will come out in coming days, but a strong arm robbery and an assault on a police officer while attempting to seize his gun is serious business. It could get you killed in my town.

It shouldn't get you killed if you are surrendering. That's the bottom line.
 
...local press says the owners of the McDonald's asked them to leave, they refused, the cops were called and in their arrogance of being "big-time" reporters out to report on redneck police gone crazy on black people, they gave them a bunch of lip and were hauled off for refusing to obey law enforcement.
Cite?

I can't find any evidence the manager asked them to leave. All I can find is the manager calling the police concerned by the proximity of the rioting, then the police coming in and saying they were closing the McDonald's.

Given that reporters have been using the McDonald's as a "base" since the beginning because it's open 24 hours a day and has WiFi, the manager suddenly deciding to call the police about them seems a bit odd.
 
We don't know if that is the case or not. It wasn't until today that we find out Brown was a suspect in a strong arm robbery. We're all led to believe that we had a innocent "teen" on his way to college executed by a police officer. Turns out cameras show a 6' 4'' 292 "teen' in the process of a strong arm robbery. Little bit different story, than what was being fed to that crowd and to the American people. Wait until the facts are known before making judgment. If the cop shot the "kid" while he had his hands in the air, he will be punished. You should probably look up the law on deadly force in the state of Missouri as well, because it's different in some states.

I thought I made it clear I'm basing my opinion on what I consider to be credible witness statements as to what happened in the seconds before Brown was fatally shot. The information about the strong arm robbery is irrelevant, if the witness statements are accurate. Cops do not get to be judge, jury, and executioner in this country.

AJ won't supply a cite, because he made it up.

Hey POS you lost the battle.
 
I think I'll wait until all the facts are in and the witnesses are vetted by investigators, evidence, and a grand jury if necessary. Feel free however to continue making assumptions about witnesses you don't know anything about.

Oh, and save the lectures about what cops are and what they aren't to those who haven't been around the block.

LOL, sure you will, cupcake.

You couldn't wait to breathlessly tell us about the victim's purported crimes.

I'm accustomed to making judgments about which witnesses are credible, and which aren't. I'm also accustomed to making judgments about which witnesses would be convincing to a jury, and which wouldn't be. Witness Tiffany Mitchell, in particular, is extremely credible, and would be extremely convincing to a jury, in my opinion. Take that as you may.

Unless somebody has visual evidence of what happened in the seconds before Brown was fatally shot, he is likely to find himself on trial for murder, and likely to be convicted, in my opinion. Again, take that as you may.

Like you waited for facts about Bergdahl and Tahmooressi?
