And? You believe what's printed all the time? Post an article so it's got to be true. It is also not the first time he's been scrutinized for his handling of an officer-involved shooting. So would it be a far-fetched idea that the BackStoppers were not secretly supporting Darren Wilson? No. I'm just saying--neither side of the coin is without faults in this situation.http://m.stlamerican.com/news/local_....html?mode=jqm
this is the 4th time ive seen that same post here
so where did you get your information from?
From your mom over lavash and մումպար, duh.
Lmao. My brotha. You doing aight?
oh. i assumed it was from some random retweet
Please. My football takes were on point last year. I made yall eat so much crow (especially DD), that crows were starting to become extinct.
I don't tweet.
dont lump me in with "yall" as i was one of the top russell wilson supporters all year.
the difference is i support a player when i think he's good, you support a player because his complexion is sorta like yours, which is why you liked RG3 over Luck. how was your tebow take?
No, RG3 was the better qb at that time. He got a trophy to show for it. You do realize that's an old ass thread you keep bringing up right? If he never got injured, you'd be singing a different tune right now.dont lump me in with "yall" as i was one of the top russell wilson supporters all year.

i just read darrin wilson's statement again smh. so he felt like a 5 year old versus a hulk hogan mike brown??? if so, that is poor police training. he is 6'4 with combat training versus a 17 year old kid in flip flops.
and this part:
The story Wilson tells goes like this:
At about noon on August 9th, Wilson hears on the radio that there's a theft in progress at the Ferguson Market(LIE, CHIEF SAID WILSON DID NOT KNOW OF A THEFT OR ROBBERY AT THE TIME). The suspect is a black male in a black shirt.
Moments later, Wilson sees two young black men walking down the yellow stripe in the center of the street. He pulls over. "Hey guys, why don't you walk on the sidewalk?" They refuse. "We're almost at our destination," one of them replies. Wilson tries again. "But what's wrong with the sidewalk?" he asks.
And then things get weird.
Brown's response to "what's wrong with the sidewalk?", as recorded by Wilson, is "fukk what you have to say." Remember, Wilson is a uniformed police officer, in a police car, and Brown is an 18-year-old kid who just committed a robbery. And when asked to use the sidewalk, Wilson says Brown replied, "fukk what you have to say."
WILSON SAYS BROWN REPLIED, "fukk WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY."
Wilson backs his car up and begins to open the door. "Hey, come here," he said to the kid who just cursed at him. He says Brown replied, "What the fukk you gonna do?" And then Brown, in Wilson's telling, slams the car door closed. Wilson tries to open the door again, tells Brown to get back, and then Brown leans into the vehicle and begins punching him.
Let's take a breath and recap. Wilson sees two young black men walking in the middle of the street. He pulls over and politely asks them to use the sidewalk. They refuse. He asks again, still polite. Brown tells Wilson — again, a uniformed police officer in a police car — "fukk what you have to say." Wilson stops his car, tries to get out, and Brown slams the car door on him and then begins punching him through the open window.
What happens next is the most unbelievable moment in the narrative. And so it's probably best that I just quote Wilson's account at length on it.
I was doing the, just scrambling, trying to get his arms out of my face and him from grabbing me and everything else. He turned to his...if he's at my vehicle, he turned to his left and handed the first subject. He said, "here, take these." He was holding a pack of — several packs of cigarillos which was just, what was stolen from the Market Store was several packs of cigarillos. He said, "here, hold these" and when he did that I grabbed his right arm trying just to control something at that point. Um, as I was holding it, and he came around, he came around with his arm extended, fist made, and went like that straight at my face with his...a full swing from his left hand.
So Brown is punching inside the car. Wilson is scrambling to deflect the blows, to protect his face, to regain control of the situation. And then Brown stops, turns to his left, says to his friend, "Here, hold these," and hands him the cigarillos stolen from Ferguson Market. Then he turns back to Wilson and, with his left hand now freed from holding the contraband goods, throws a haymaker at Wilson.
Every bullshyt detector in me went off when I read that passage. Which doesn't mean that it didn't happen exactly the way Wilson describes. But it is, again, hard to imagine. Brown, an 18-year-old kid holding stolen goods, decides to attack a cop and, while attacking him, stops, hands his stolen goods to his friend, and then returns to the beatdown. It reads less like something a human would do and more like a moment meant to connect Brown to the robbery.
Wilson next recounts his thought process as he reached for a weapon. He considered using his mace, but at such close range, the mace might get in his eyes, too. He doesn't carry a taser with a fireable cartridge, but even if he did, "it probably wouldn't have hit [Brown] anywhere". Wilson couldn't reach his baton or his flashlight. So he went for his gun.
Brown sees him go for the gun. And he replies: "You're too much of a fukking p*ssy to shoot me."
"YOU'RE TOO MUCH OF A fukkING p*ssy TO SHOOT ME."
Again, stop for a moment and think about that. Brown is punching Wilson, sees the terrified cop reaching for his gun, and says "You're too much of a fukking p*ssy to shoot me." He dares him to shoot
And then Brown grabs Wilson's gun, twists it, and points it at Wilson's "pelvic area". Wilson regains control of the firearm and gets off a shot, shattering the glass. Brown backs up a half step and, realizing he's unharmed, dives back into the car to attack Wilson.
Wilson exits the car to give chase. He yells at Brown to get down on the ground. Here, I'm going to go back to Wilson's words:
When he stopped, he turned, looked at me, made like a grunting noise and had the most intense, aggressive face I've ever seen on a person. When he looked at me, he then did like the hop...you know, like people do to start running.And, he started running at me. During his first stride, he took his right hand put it under his shirt into his waistband. And I ordered him to stop and get on the ground again. He didn't. I fired multiple shots. After I fired the multiple shots, I paused a second, yelled at him to get on the ground again, he was still in the same state. Still charging, hand still in his waistband, hadn't slowed down.
The stuff about Brown putting his hand in his waistband is meant to suggest that Wilson had reason to believe Brown might pull a gun. But it's strange. We know Brown didn't have a gun. And that's an odd fact to obscure while charging a police officer.
Either way, at that point, Wilson shoots again, and kills Brown.
There are inconsistencies in Wilson's story. He estimates that Brown ran 20-30 feet away from the car and then charged another 10 feet back towards Wilson. But we know Brown died 150 feet away from the car.
There are also consistencies. St Louis prosecutor Robert McCulloch said that Brown's DNA was found inside Wilson's car, suggesting there was a physical altercation inside the vehicle. We know shots were fired from inside the car. We know Brown's bullet wounds show he was only hit from the front, never from the back.
But the larger question is, in a sense, simpler: Why?
Why did Michael Brown, an 18-year-old kid headed to college, refuse to move from the middle of the street to the sidewalk? Why would he curse out a police officer? Why would he attack a police officer? Why would he dare a police officer to shoot him? Why would he charge a police officer holding a gun? Why would he put his hand in his waistband while charging, even though he was unarmed?
NONE OF THIS FITS WITH WHAT WE KNOW OF MICHAEL BROWN
None of this fits with what we know of Michael Brown. Brown wasn't a hardened felon. He didn't have a death wish. And while he might have been stoned, this isn't how stoned people act. The toxicology report did not indicate he was on PCP or something that would've led to suicidal aggression.
Which doesn't mean Wilson is a liar. Unbelievable things happen every day. The fact that his story raises more questions than it answers doesn't mean it isn't true.
But the point of a trial would have been to try to answer these questions. We would have either found out if everything we thought we knew about Brown was wrong, or if Wilson's story was flawed in important ways. But now we're not going to get that chance. We're just left with Wilson's unbelievable story.
In what UNIVERSE!
Yep..
Again, I'm not even defending Brown's character or anything, I didn't know the , obviously, but the hypocrisy is strong..Black people being accused of defending him simply because he's Black isn't any different than White people defending a police that they don't know anything about, other than the fact that he shot a teenager..
Brown isn't the issue here..the issue is the prevalence of cowardly, White policeman that are immediately afraid of Black men and overreact, often leading to fatalities, despite their training and duties as officers of the law..it happens far too often..
How can anybody look at the photos of those "injuries" and believe this dude's story?..
I was referring to his rookie of the year award when he beat out Luck.
But that is enough football in this thread.
Not just black men, black kids too.

the difference is this case would never had gone to the grand jury if not for the race baited and the media.
It's pathetic that people still think Brown was innocent after all the evidence against him was released to the public.
Quick random story from my best friend who is PD in Palestine:
"Today a man was yelling at me because his daughter caused a wreck. He showed up after the fact and didn't witness the accident. He repeated everything his daughter had just told me but couldn't grasp that it was her fault. I asked him to stop yelling at me. He put his hands in the air and said 'don't shoot.' I then gave his daughter the ticket she deserved. I'm just glad both drivers were black, or otherwise I would have been racist."
And you wonder why no one takes any of you stupid ing jigs seriously.
