MO - Grief & protests follow shooting of teen Michael Brown #3

[JLSChook]

Not sure if it's okay to say this, but on Tim's live feed they are saying there is a dead body in the road down the street. Not sure how true it is.

Main West Florissant drag blocked at both ends. Definitely nothing coming in.

Tim Pool just talked to someone who told him the same thing.

It may have been from a car accident. IDK

Careful with the word "bodies" unless you know somebody's dead.

Neither won a victory against the American government so I'm not sure of your point.

You didn't say anything about the American government previously, your rebuttal is a non sequitur to the original response.

Tim Pool live stream is live again. Did I hear correctly that "there is a body in the middle of the road"?

Hey, pops, thanks for all the updates. You are doing a great service here. You should definitely ask for a raise.

The problem is that an unarmed teen is dead (another out of many). For a lot of us what he was doing 10 minutes before doesn't matter, he was unarmed, he was stupid, teens are, and he should never have been shot in the first place. He was fleeing.

He didn't deserve the death penalty and Wilson imposed it. That is what it boiled down to and many of the defenses I am hearing have to do with MB stealing..which isn't a death penalty crime.

No shots in the back, so it wouldn't appear he was fleeing.

Great timing to release autopsy results after dark when the uprising is about to start. Let's hope those results aren't known in the streets until dawn.

That's what it looks like.

I do get what you're saying, and I would never personally not follow a cop's instructions - but what would the civil rights movement have looked like if everyone dispersed when told to?

I do want to say, I think Michael Brown's shooting was completely justified as an act of self-defense by the cop. I'm just speaking in generalities.

I DON'T get looting and burning, but I do get standing there peacefully and saying I have a right to be here and to peacefully assemble, despite a soft curfew.

That assembly doesn't look very peaceful to me.

It is a truly a shame a young man of 18 years behaved so foolishly he lost his life.
Perhaps he was a terrific kid his entire life up till the last 15 minutes of his life...but those last 15 minutes determined his fate.
I feel bad for all those that knew and cared about him.
There are lessons to be learned... Too bad the media and the agitators don't take the opportunity to effect real change.
It's time to stop blaming everyone else for criminal behavior and those trying to actually protect and serve.

All IMO

I think Michael truly was a victim of an environment from which he had no way and no clue how to escape. No football scholarship or means to get out. So he did the best he could and it was an accepted way of life. Instead of blaming police, the leaders of that community need to address the environment and at least try to fix what is broken in the educational system as well as job opportunities. And disperse the concentration of low-income apartments.

It actually might be great timing. The people planning to riot aren't really all that interested in news and truth. And those who are very interested in the truth now have a whole 12 hours to consider it.

The bullets did not appear to have been shot from very close range because no gunpowder was present on his body. However, that determination could change if it turns out that there is gunshot residue on Mr. Brown’s clothing, to which Dr. Baden did not have access.

I want to know if any prints other then Officer Wilson's were found on the gun. Or just where MB's prints were in or on the car. I would think MB's prints would be on the outside if he was trying to push away from LE, especially if he was being pulled into the car. I just want answers. ;-/

Can anyone tell me if we have any ballistic reports? Where the shots landed and at what distance? Thanks!

Maybe it's just me, but I find what has been "conveniently omitted" from Dr. Baden's carefully scripted items released to media from his autopsy report this evening, just as interesting as what was chosen to be included. Dr. Baden is definitely aware of the preliminary toxicology report. Gosh-- isn't it interesting that Dr. Baden's findings are released on a Sunday evening?? Just before mandated curfew?

Dr. Baden chose to say nothing at all about the preliminary tox report. Nothing. If it was completely negative, I feel certain that the family would have wanted that released, too.

Sorry to be a cynic, but there is a whole lot more autopsy info available right now than what was shared, IMO. And IMO, if it isn't complimentary to MB, it has to be delayed or suppressed, as long as possible, or until a cover story has been concocted to "explain".

IMO, this young man's toxicology report is going to be positive, for more than one intoxicating substance.
