Your forgetting the part where Brown was fleeing.
Brown was killed a distance from Wilson and then turned around....why would someone flee and then turn around to attack?
The only answer would be that Brown turned around to give up...but was still shot.

Or are you just speculating, while using your own special recipe of racism.

Your the coward for assuming he was not defending himself from a 300 pound guy.
Like I said earlier, if he can't to his job without killing unarmed teens he should find another job or train more and stop being such a craven. LEOs have LTL weapons for a reason, use them.
Do you work for Obama???
Nice political baiting btw...
WOW!!!! So, you have first hand experience int his realm. You know, being attacked while performing a job in LE.
The amount of armchair quarterbacks in this is pretty astonishing.
I bet you know military tactics also, since you have played some First Person Army games.

If British police can deal with unmarmed suspects without killing them then so can American cops.
Police are not soldiers
And they are not judge jury and executioner.
They are there to simply detain suspects until the courts decide what to do with them.
Lethal force should be used ONLY as a last resort if a suspect is armed and putting others in lethal danger.
If there is no weapon then there is no excuse for a gun, its useing unessary force.
Brown may have been a theif and he may have got violent but the police should have detained him and sent him to court, not summarly executed him.

A taser is not there to defend a LEO's life. It is there for non-combative people.
Brown attacked Wilson......Let me state this again.
Brown, attacked a uniformed police officer
He got shot for attacking a LEO.
Brown was a moron to have thought that would have ended in any other fashion.
Again..................
Brown attacked a uniformed police officer

Maybe the UK criminals are the weak ones and so the cops there have it easier and can be weak. Tough USA criminals need tough USA cops.As an ATS Staff Member, I will not moderate in threads such as this where I have participated as a member.

The folks up in Ferguson and the surrounding towns North of St. Louis know that many of the cops that they deal with are racist.
