his uncle on TV today depicted him as kneeling in front of the Officer, hands/arms extended upwards in the "universal surrender position".....and then he was shot down.....

Yup, we're all sure it went down like that...

Yup. Two sides to every story, and I doubt he was innocent. Nobody knows what went down till the foresnics come out. Proud of the brethren for not jumping on the bashing (of either side) like I see on other forums

Man, did you see how small the robbery victim was? Talk about "disparity of force"!

Been reading too.....the cop is being crucified most places I was reading. Gotta let it play out. The one common thing I have noticed is people are claiming seven shots fired. Two in the back, then the kid turned and took five in the front. Is what I am reading.

Saw on the news today, there will be one initial autopsy, then the family will have an independent autopsy done, then the DOJ has been asked to do one.

Wow, 3 autopsies. The first should install zippers on the Y incision.

On the ballistics side of things, considering he was 6'4" and 290lbs it is not surprising it took so many shots to stop the threat. Most people think you get shot anywhere in center mass and you are down. So they think more than one or two shots is excessive. I have seen video of someone shot 4-5 times center mass and was still shooting back. Took a head shot to put him down and his arm was still moving 2-3 minutes later.

Also Mas Ayoob wrote a great article on how ballistics proved that someone who was shot in the back was not shot excessively as they had turned at the last second. Thus making it look like he shot a fleeing person but it was not the case. However I don't think many residents of Ferguson will believe ballistics reports unless the reports incriminate the officer. I believe their minds are made up.

He was a thug who employed physical violence or the threat of physical violence to get what he wanted. In the end the only thing that could control him was the use of equal or greater physical violence.

Karma of another kind...........

Funny how two autopsies put that crappola to rest. I'll bet Holder's autopsy tells a different story than the first two.
