Riots in Missouri - Part 1

[Howlett]

Not talking about the evidence, but his own words, his general presentation. It is as if he is telling everyone outside they are wrong.

Because they ARE wrong. You don't know the facts. He just went through them all. Sorry you don't like them.

 

[Sawyer]

This country is broken.

A jury of his peers (including black people) voted not to indite. Whatever evidence they were presented with clearly indicated that the officer was not at fault. Time to move on.

Five minutes after a miscarriage of justice isn't really enough time to adequately move on.

 

[Howlett]

Where in the word did you get that?

From his and the grand jurys' mouths. They have all of the evidence, you do not.

Exactly. Good luck trying to explain that to some folks though, apparently the outraged ones know something that the judge and the jury did not.

Wow what a surprise defending prosecator who lets off cop for public executions.I know a lot of people here are conservative but still.

You are clearly missing the point. They are handling this as badly as they have handled this entire situation. You think they are rioting just to riot? ****.

Just like in the Zimmerman case.

I've steered clear of this thread for months. The only thing I'll say is no doubt Michael Brown was doing something he shouldn't have been (anyone who denies that is delusional), but why was lethal force used instead of a taser-gun? Don't most police have tasers or less lethal options exactly for these sort of situations?

What are you talking about? Do you even realize what the post you were replying to says?

We must be watching something very different...he simply read off the evidence, the eye witness accounts and the autopsy evidence.

The only question that they have asked where he was to give his own opinion was whether he still felt that going to a grand jury was the right thing to do...

No where in what he has said did he say anyone was wrong.

Because no one ever gets away with murder. Never happens, especially with cops and the wealthy. Never, ever happens.

Prove it.

Wait, Conservatives support public executions?!?!?!?

I guess I won't be seeing my relatives anymore.

A jury of his peers voted not to indict. I don't see an issue with this. They probably got more of the story than we ever will.

oh bloody hell, they have to take over all the TV stations to air it?

The Simpsons is still on FXX. (I heard the news on Twitter)

Every he read was evidence? I honestly must be watching something else. Because the way he was talking about about how people jump to conclusions sounded a lot like that to me.

Time for more cameras.

I saw something a while back about many of the Ferguson residents getting body cams and having "know your rights" classes. This is something that should be happening nationwide.

We may never know, the only thing I can discern from what the evidence has shown is that there was a gunshot while they had an encounter in the police car. Maybe at that point, he saw it as needing the force he took later. A police officer losing their gun is one of the worst things that can happen to the officer, and others. I don't know...just a sad, sad situation all the way around, and I don't see a solution.

I don't try to pretend that I know what people are thinking. Unlike the people who are sure that the officer is guilty when they really don't know what they're talking about.

I thought they were going to release all the info and findings?

This.

I don't understand why this hasn't been asked or said to this man. The very first thing P.O. are taught is that they are supposed to use lethal force as a last resort.

You must be.

Did he lose his gun? How did he shoot Brown if he lost his gun?

Easier said than done. Brown's blood was in the car, he was aggressive and grabbed at a gun. He's a huge guy. Don't assault a cop. THE END.

Irony as that is exactly what you are doing by claiming you understand what people who think Wilson should have charged are thinking.
