69. All I need to see is the whole video.

All I need to see is the whole video.

The only explanation as to why the police have decided to edit out Martin falling, shot dead, is because there was no gun. We get to see the policeman falling with his flashlight skidding across the pavement, but no Martin falling, dropping his gun which amazingly we later get to see a picture of clearly marked as evidence. Oh, and isn't it interesting that neither the body cam or dash cam was turned on? Clearly Martin falls right in front of the car which would have been picked up clearly on a dash cam.

I'm a doubter with no trust of the "official" story. "18 year old chooses suicide during Christmas holidays, forgets safety is on, pulls gun but doesn't shoot because, well, he's just an idiot black guy doing what black guys do on a daily basis all across the country."

Bull Shit. The issue of gun or no gun could be resolved with a picture of Martin falling and dropping the gun....Why aren't the cops showing it?

That said, the cop must have been scared shitless.
