Think again: Brown, Wilson, and Ferguson.

22. I agree partially.

I think it will probably be ruled a justified shooting because of the fight at the car AND because MB moved/charged at the cop when he was told to freeze.

I don't think its a justified shooting just because of the fight at the car, so if the officer had shot him while he was running away or after MB gave up with his hands up then I think it would be at least manslaughter and probably murder.

What I think happened is after the fight at the car (where MB shoved the cop back into the car, went for his guy, and punched him in the face), that MB ran and cop chased him and told him to freeze. I think MB stopped and turned around, and that should have ended it. But I think after that, for some crazy reason, he didnt remain still he moved at the cop and thats why the cop shot him.

I believe the report about there not being enough evidence for the grand jury charge the cop. I think thats because they have witnesses, fingerprints, wounds that are consistent with what I said above.
