Hey; according to Rev Al Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson; the convenience store video has nothing to do with the case; that the individual was a perfect gentleman; and eye witnesses stated the cop shot him while he was running away with his arms up..>>what more do you need to know; without a guilty verdict with the electric chair; there will be riots all over America..!!
I agree with you here, and the kid obviously made bad choices and was anything but a choir boy. The question remains: did he "deserve" to die?
Police using excessive force, especially on blacks, is all over the place these days. I personally know people who have been involved in law enforcement for many years, and the profession has many incredible people involved in it, but it also has a propensity to attract a good % of people who are basically bullies (small man/dick syndrome abound) who relish in the fact that they can hide behind "protection" of the badge.

If he was trying to get the officers gun he "deserved" to die - he actually needed to be shot a few more times - legally though I think the officer has a problem if the hoodlum was surrendering - the citizens of the St. Louis area are living in a better place without Mr.Brown - that's fact - this guys future entailed a long career in prison and everyone knows that
I can't speak for other situations, I'm just talking about this one.
You asked if he deserved what he got.......before I answer, let me ask you a question- What do you think this guy would have done if he was successful in grabbing that Police Officers weapon?
I'm skeptical of both sides of this story. As usual, the truth probably lives somewhere in the middle, but we'll never know for sure what happened. Without Brown "going for the gun", the officer is going be some serious hot water, so we must be careful about accepting this as objective information. This doesn't make any sense unless the gun was already drawn by the officer. I just can't see a scenario where Brown goes for the holstered gun but fails, then officer draws the gun and shoots twice, hitting once in the arm.
More likely, imo: once the scuffle started, officer goes for his gun, Brown sees barrel of gun heading his direction and tries to stop it. Of course he should have just submitted to authority from the start, but he didn't and died because of it.
My take on the rest: Once Brown was shot the first time, he turned to flee but realized a moment later that would be a really bad move, turned around put hands in the air and started back towards the vehicle. Dumb move here, as he should have just stopped moving or laid down. Do not want to appear threatening at all in that situation. But....cop was still freaked out, adrenaline still pumping thru his veins, sees a really big black kid bearing down on him again and empties his clip.
For anyone who's ever been in a real physical confrontation before, rational thinking gets really dicey. Add a gun, and someone often ends up dead. Difficult to point the finger too hard at the officer, as he probably did feel like he was in danger (despite being the guy with the gun). Brown wasn't going to get his gun at the point the clip was emptied. Can't expect perfection from an officer in the heat of the moment, but a little more restraint would have gone a long way. Furgerson is a tinder box of racial tension (look at surrounding history of how PD was doing business leading up to this incident), and this obviously set it off.

Oh well, another meme by the race hustlers and goofy white liberal guilt crowd dies
Experts told the newspaper Brown was shot Aug. 9., at close range — and may have been reaching for Wilson’s weapon. The autopsy found material “consistent with products that are discharged from the barrel of a firearm” in a wound on Brown’s thumb. Judy Melinek, a forensic pathologist in San Francisco, said this “supports the fact that this guy is reaching for the gun, if he has gunpowder particulate material in the wound.”

Hands up!!!!!
LMFAO
The idea that Brown put up his hands and was trying to surrender and the officer shot him 9 times anyway is so preposterous only those ghetto wanna-be thugs and race hustlers would believe it.

As evidence gets leaked out everyone is starting to realize that Wilson did nothing wrong. Brown was the aggressor. There is blood spatter in the police car, he got shot after a struggle for Wilson's gun. He had high levels of marijuana in his system and he had just completed a strong arm robbery. There is no way the grand jury indicts him. The media idiots like Al Sharpton and Jessie Jack$on have set this up for riots nationwide.
If the first thing that someone thinks of when they hear the word "thug" is a black person
that is only because the hip hop culture has done such a good job with branding the term.
ie, "thug life", "thug love", shorty want a thug and more.
John Cena tried to give it a little whiter flavor with Thuganomics but no one really took that too
seriously
