By the way, can we stop singing the praises of Captain Ron Johnson of the Missouri Highway Patrol now?

Your posts on this topic are beyond parody.

What is more shocking is that you can't rely on the police to protect their business. For the police to step back and allow looting to avoid escalating violence is an affront. The police should have given wood shampoos to everyone of those pieces of garbage that were looting. God knows they all could have used the "cleaning".
Note: I don't even think Brown's family is asserting that he was "gunned down for walking in the middle of the road" at this point. Your comments are utterly preposterous.
As a thought experiment:
the officer was responding to the 911 call about the store robbery and encountered Michael Brown and his buddy walking up the middle of the street, so he ordered them to get out of the street and continued on his way. Then the robbery description came over his radio, and he realized it matched with the two guys he had just ordered out of the street, so he put the cruiser in reverse and backed up down to them. As he got out of the car, Michael Brown "bum-rushed" him and forced him back in, and there apparently was a struggle for the officer's gun, and a shot was fired inside the car.
Michael Brown then got out and took off up the street with his buddy. The officer got out of the car and yelled at them to stop, and Brown wheeled around and charged back at the cop, who then fired the fatal shots.
