In reply to the discussion: BREAKING: Michael Brown Audio Aired By CNN Authenticated [View all]Laughing Mirror
(4,185 posts)68. Yes, it is quite competent evidence
I could not agree more. What nobody seems to be able to explain to me is that the article says that in spite of the fact that the recording was authenticated, it still is not conclusive.
What does that mean, "not conclusive"? I take not conclusive to mean that for whatever reason it is not, then it could not be used as evidence. And if is not conclusive and cannot be used as evidence, then what sort of excuse will be given why it cannot?
This is the only thing I am saying. I am in no way disputing that this recording is a forgery. I'm trying to understand how the police will explain it. What kind of story will they invent to explain why the recording is not conclusive?

Thanks. I guess what I'm really asking, was this an 'automatic'? I've only fired single shots.

I see. So are you willing to discuss this or is this a drive-by? Hello? Hello?

IMO asking questions is not the best way to present an argument. Just my opinion. nm
