We
now know from Michael Brown’s autopsy that he was not shot in the back.
We now know from other eye witnesses that Michael Brown did attack the
police officer who stopped him. If leaks are to be believes, we know
the officer was seriously injured in the attack.
There is a lot that bothers me about all of this. I am bothered by the
slow response from the Ferguson Police. Many facts could have mitigated
some of the issues. I am bothered by so much of the media getting so
many of the early facts wrong. I am bothered by so many people who wish
to treat this as a binary situation. I am bothered by the Al Sharpton’s
and Jesse Jackson’s of the world swooping in to fan the flames and
fundraise.
But I am most bothered by the near gleefulness of some that the early
facts were wrong. . .

Wonder what Obama or Holder would think of Michael Brown or Travon Martin as a son-in-law?

ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry and so ashamed, but after seeing the Autumn Pasquale story, I'd just as soon take every black male currently in prison and execute them with a .22LR in the back of the head out behind the wood shed. Cull out several hundred thousand of the absolute worst offenders as an example to the rest. I'm a horrible racist person and cannot seem to feel sorry for it. It needs to be done, even if it means going to hell afterwards. I"m older, my children are grown, I'd volunteer to kill as many as needed and then suffer the consequences.
ReplyDeleteThat was me up above, 67dodgeman!!!
ReplyDeleteI am bothered by the "hang the cop" attitude announced by Missouri Governor Nixon and while I have been hopeful that the St. Louis Prosecutor is a principled guy, he has begun a Grand Jury investigation without having first interviewed Officer Darren Wilson - after almost two weeks have passed since the shooting.
ReplyDeleteBut know for sure that should the Grand Jury not recommend charging the officer, General Holder will most certainly try Wilson for Federal Civil Rights Violations.
