All reports start with Brown walking down the street and Wilson coming upon him and barking orders for him to get out of the street. I can probably imagine just how he said it, too. No one has yet explained what happened next. But it makes no sense for MB to simply walk up to the cop car and start a fight. Instead, it makes more likely sense that Wilson pulled along side Brown because he was not immediately compliant to his ORDER (his fucking authority) and then threatened Brown to obey him/to get out of the street by brandishing his gun. That's when Brown, in self defense, grabbed at it, and was shot, leaving his blood in the car and GSW residue on his hand(s). Brown fled and Wilson, the bully who couldn't stand the affront to his ego and his authority, got out of the car and literally hunted him down with an ultimate coup de grace kill shot to the top of the frigging head.
BTW, this scenario also fits witness Dorian Johnson's account that Wilson backed his car up in an attempt to trap them, but then couldn't exit his vehicle without hitting them with his door
Wilson's story reeks, he was the aggressor, he started this shit and made sure that the other side of the story would be silenced! He concocted a story which, to anyone with a functioning neuron, makes no sense. If, Brown was such a hulk, such a demon... and he was sooooooooooo afraid, why the hell would he exit the vehicle to pursue this massive threat on foot? Because he had already wounded Brown and couldn't let Brown live to tell the real story
Funny too how Wilson is supposedly a trained police officer, but he offers the same bullshit we heard from the untrained Zimmermann. Both were in vehicles while their victims were simply walking down the street... yet they were so fearful of the hooded, hulking black male, they got out of the protective shell offered by the vehicle. Both had questionable injuries (non-injuries, really) which they alleged were evidence of assault by their victims and thus justification for murder.
Really? It all makes no damn sense. They initiate a confrontation and then say they had no choice but to "defend" themselves with deadly force
