An unarmed 18-year-old black man was executed by police in broad daylight
As long as we're placing the burden of proof on the testimony of a dead person, i'm fine with calling this one early - fuck that cop either way, he should have used a fucking tazer. The value of a life doesn't change based on how physically intimidating it is.I sort of thought the take on here was that reasonable people would wait for the evidence to come out before passing judgement? This article clearly doesn't.
According to the police and medical people, the cop was pretty severely beaten up. To me that doesn't sound like just "physically intimidating", it sounds like a fight occurred between them and then shots were fired....supposedly the initial one even inside the car. You don't believe that happened? Just curious because I don't see/hear many people acknowledging a struggle. It's odd to me.As long as we're placing the burden of proof on the testimony of a dead person, i'm fine with calling this one early - fuck that cop either way, he should have used a fucking tazer.

Maybe I missed something. Are we supposed to ignore that the cop may have gotten his face beaten in? You don't believe that might have happened?Please tell me you aren't referring to the eye socket blowout thing.
The eye damage is definitely still in dispute, but the fact remains that Brown was shot to death 20+ feet away from the officer, clearly unarmed. He wasn't shot in a close arms reach struggle. Why is the story being framed as if he died during a fistfight, when that's a lie?According to the police and medical people, the cop was pretty severely beaten up.

Can I add a question? Why is Brown's DNA on the officer's gun?

It's a good thing you're pretty.Clearly you've never been a black guy at a GOP Meeting. The most popular guy in the room.
Also, author of the original article needs to read up on the statistics of police shoot/kills vs. criminal/shoot/kills. The threat for young males ain't the men and women in blue.
Probably because there was a struggle for the weapon in close range. According to legal precedent, the justification for deadly force does not remain constant throughout an event. Many people have already pointed out that there would be less upheaval over this event if Brown had died during a struggle for the officers weapon.
Don't quote my post if you aren't going to address my points specifically. Your simplistic, erroneous, and inane viewpoint is unrelated to my post.He just committed a robbery(10-15 minutes earlier)where he bullied/strong armed another human being. Then he attempted to take a gun from a human being entrusted to uphold the law for all human beings. Mike Brown brought on his own demise. He was confrontational and he bears the majority of responsibility based on his own actions as a human being.
Jusy how exactly do you think that we went through all these steps in 20 seconds?:Well,based on your own inanity we are expected to believe that in an altercation that likely occurred in a 15-20 second time frame there were 2 separate events contained therein...as if to suggest that some omniscient referee (rj?)had signaled an end to round 1 and the officer fired after the bell.
So no, my post is indicative of common sense and Mike Browns attitude after having robbed and threatened a man 10-15 minutes earlier compounded by attempting disarm an officer of the law is literally the largest variable in this unfortunate event.
Jusy how exactly do you think that we went through all these steps in 20 seconds?:
1. Cop tells Brown and friend to get off street
to
2. Physical confrontation outside of car - Brown punches Wilson, Wilson reaches for weapon, they struggle for weapon
to
3. Brown is 45 ft away from car/Wilson and "bull rushes" him
to
4. Brown falls from multiple gunshot wounds 20+ feet from car.
