Damage shown from blast that stopped police-killing sniper

80. Thank you for

repeating Darren Wilson's version of Michael Brown's death almost word for word.

Let's try another version. Michael and Dorian are walking down the street (technically "illegally" but in exactly the same manner as thousands of white teenage boys do) when they are summoned over to Wilson's police vehicle (why, because cops do that little power play all the friggin' time just to show young black males that they are the boss). Michael is inadequately servile and talks back when Wilson starts giving him the "what are you doing here . . . do you know I could arrest you for walking in the street instead of the sidewalk." Wilson become irate (as cops are want to do when a young black male give them disrespect) and grabs Michael. Michael struggles to get away and when he does, Wilson goes for his gun. During the struggle, shots go off inside the police vehicle. Michael pulls away and starts to run (why? . . . maybe because at this point he knows what Wilson is going to do) Wilson fires at him and yells at him to stop. Brown stops and turns back toward Wilson. Wilson continues to fire, with a final round entering the top of Brown's head as he falls.

Where, oh where, did I come up with this version? Well, to start with, it's 100% consistent with the physical evidence, absolutely 100%. Second, the first part (up to where Wilson grabs Brown) is from Dorian's statement. The second part, about the struggle, is consistent with what the eyewitnesses saw. Most saw nothing but a struggle. It is WILSON who portrays Brown as the aggressor (which is denied by Dorian). The third part is EXACTLY what is described by two of the first witnesses interviewed by the police. These witnesses, UNLIKE THE WITNESSES WHO DIDN'T INCULPATE WILSON, however, weren't just interviewed once, they were interviewed multiple times (there are three interview transcripts). Each time they were interviewed, police challenged some minor aspect of their story, e.g., "The first time I talked to you, didn't you say you were looking out your window when you saw this, now are you saying it was after you had run outside? By the time a blatantly pro-cop racist DA put them in front of the grand jury, they had been totally burnt as witnesses.

There isn't a "lack of understanding" on the part of DUers OR Black Lives Matters. There is an "understanding" that our racist criminal justice system will guarantee that the version I just told you will never get out and that people like you will go around pontificating about how Michael was responsible for his own death.
