Okay, before these protesters get up and "DEMAND justice" in the
Michael Brown case, they'd better control the people who are
doing this. Now there will be an outcry because the police shot
someone else...someone who had opened fire on the police.
This crap has to stop.

It's not going to. Not as long as the news medias keeps pushing
their "unarmed teenager killed by police" mantra.
They need to start telling it like it actually was. That Brown
was killed while violently attacking a police officer.
The liberal news media is inciting racial tensions the way they
report things like Ferguson, Baltimore, the Confederate battle
flag or Black lives matter.
Obama, Holder, Sharpton and people like Baltimore's Mayor
Rawlings, and State's Attorney Mosby are inciting these people.
Also by condemning the police actions during the Ferguson riots
and standing down and letting the rioters in Baltimore burn and
loot they only encouraged that kind of behavior in the future.

The Black Lives Matter crowd shoved Bernie Sanders aside at his
appearance in Seattle and took over the mic and podium to
complain he wasn't doing enough for their cause, lol.
Talk about morons biting the hand that feeds them.

Well they can't do the Scary Bird Flu/Swine Flu/Ebola/SARS
thing because nobody buys it anymore, so I guess Scary Police
are Coming to Kill You (tm) will have to do.

I still don't think Brown was "violently attacking" the police
officer. But I don't think he was an innocent victim,
either...he was up to no good. Should he have died? I don't
think so. But he was involved enough in the incident to take
some blame.

Punching a cop isn't a violent attack?
Some blame?
So who else's fault was it?
The store clerk that he grabbed and threatened?
The convent store for having those cigars?
Officer Wilson for telling them to not walk in the street?
Officer Wilson for backing up his squad car and stopping them
after the description of them came over the radio for a theft?
Officer Wilson for defending himself after he had already been
attacked by him?

Doesn't matter what you think. The evidence says otherwise.
Should he have died? Well, when you attack somebody that has a
gun, you have to suffer the consequences.

We will have to agree to disagree on this one.

There really isn't anything to disagree on here. The report is
failry clear. You know what's really sad? An officer in good
standing lost his job, simply for doing his job. Now he's a
marked man.

Sure it is. The question is whether it's one worthy of deadly
force in reply.
Pull a gun during a fist fight and you're likely looking at
jail time. That's how it works for ordinary folk.
OTOH if Brown tried to wrestle the cop's gun away, it's fair
game to assume he planned on using it.
Ironic the Fergies are celebrating Brown's anniversary by
looting and attacking cops. Maybe someone should remind them
that's how Mike Brown got sho.....ah hell....they'll figure it
out.

Gunfire erupted in Ferguson, Missouri, late Sunday, setting off
a chaotic chain of events that ended with police shooting an
18-year-old man on the anniversary of the death of Michael
Brown.
The events unfolded following a day of peaceful demonstrations
remembering Brown, the unarmed black teen shot and killed by
white police officer Darren Wilson, sparking protests across the
country, and shining a spotlight on police tactics.
Give us a fucking break. We're getting damn sick and tired of
this "unarmed teen" bullshit. Here, for comparison purposes, are
the heights and weights of some individuals that no one would
want pounding on them:
•Mike Singletary: 6'01" 232
•Brian Urlacher: 6'04 258
•Dick Butkus: 6'03 245
•Sonny Liston: 6'01 219
•Ali: 6'03 236
Although all of these men operated in arenas governed by strict
rules of the sport they played, we wouldn't want to be on their
bad side.
Michael Brown, a known felon, strong armed robber and scourge
of the neighborhood, was 6'04...as big as any of these guys, and
was in excess of 300 pounds. He was going up against unarmed
shopkeepers, not fellow athletes in a stadium. He was also
operating in an arena where there are no rules. And while we
wouldn't be too worried if he was chasing us, if he was trying
to get in an open window of our car and actively disarm us,
knowing that we had a gun, we'd be a bit worried.
This is the "hero" of the Ferguson community - an individual so
guilty, that Obama's Justice Department, after a months long
investigation, couldn't find a single charge that would stick
under any law at the local, state and federal levels.
Welcome to the new normal.
