    All the shots indicate a struggle at close range......from inside the car. Cops are NOT trained to shoot in the arm; they are trained to shoot to kill....when being attacked. I wouldn't be surprised if Brown wasn't high on something.....because no one in their right mind would go after a cop like that. Of course, we saw him on the video clip at the store bullying that guy, so apparently he was trying to do the same with the cop. Stupid.

    6 shots at a moving target after just having your face bashed in and struggling for your life?

    I think he's pretty decent.

    What gets me is what the left would say if the angel has gotten the cops gun. Then we'd all have seen what a real execution was like.

    I've had training with a firearm and how to use it as a civilian and I was taught to shoot until they stop. I would imagine the 4 shots to the arm did almost nothing with Brown's adrenaline going.

    oh - I see what you mean - all I was arguing was we still don't have proof of what exactly happened

    Actually it will prove to be a big deal if Brown forced the Officer's door shut and then reached in the window to physically hurt him and make a grab for his weapon. And that is most likely what happened. According to Johnson the officer reached out the window and grabbed Brown by the throat. That's already an easy lie to prove by lawyers. It would be kind of hard to grab a 6'4" guy by the throat while sitting in the car. I'll bet the autopsy will show Brown was on some type of drug like crack cocaine or meth. It took six shots to take him down.

    His adrenaline probably came from crack cocaine or methamph.

    It will depend on the officer's frame of mind. And if Brown turned around and faced the officer, the officer may have believed Brown was going to come back at him. The officer may have had reason to believe Brown was amped up on crack cocaine or meth.

    If Brown was acting extremely agitated and aggressive, the officer may have had reasons to believe Brown was amped up on crack cocaine or meth. If so, Brown's action of pretending to surrender may not have been believed by the officer. Just a ploy to get the officer off guard so he could attack again.

    "Michael Brown Shot 6 Times - All From the Front"

    how far away did the officer say the teen was when he shot him and why did he shoot him, these are simple questions only the officer can answer, the people don't understand why this is not being released

    so when is the officer gonna tell his side of the story, is he waiting to see what turns up, and then plans to make his story fit the facts as known, that is much less believable then writing up a report and then the facts matching the report, if the officer felt he was justified, then tell his side of the story already

    Plus I found out last night that the bullets were 9mm instead of the more
    stopping power 40 cal. type.Which explains why the cop fired more than one or
    2 rounds.There's also a YouTube showing Brown face down in the middle of
    the street.That was the YouTube where firsthand eyewitness explain how it
    went down.

    LOL - forensic examiner armchair-quarterback in NY. Ridiculous. In any case, you shoot until the threat is neutralized.

    this is a stretch - if he wasn't charging there was no legit reason to fire

    Which totally explains why Holder wants a federal autopsy.So he can bugger up
    the findings and try and prove little stuff like distance at point of impact and
    skew the original findings.meaning Holder is trying to reach a result that
    makes Brown appear as if in surrender mode.Not Bum-rushing the cop.

    have we heard from the officer that he was a threat? what was he doing at the time the officer shot him? what was the distance from the officer? ... simple questions, still no answers

    maybe the officer wasn't thinking clearly in his adrenaline fueled state.. but lets get the truth out there

    Brown's buddy Johnson is claiming the officer reached out the window and grabbed Brown by the throat. Either the officer has extremely long arms or Brown was bending over with his head in the window. This should be clue one that Johnson is lying about how the events went down. Johnson also claims the officer opened his door and the door bounced off Brown and Johnson and slammed shut angering the officer who then reached out and grabbed Brown by the throat. What most likely happened is Brown pushed the door closed on the officer and then stuck his head in the window and starting fighting the officer. Lawyers will have a field day with this claim. I am willing to bet Brown was on crack cocaine or methamph.

    I doubt the shots fired # is going to be very important either way. Not that out of character for someone to dump a magazine in a panic mode.

    The truth is known by Johnson. Lawyers will easily prove he's lying about how the events went. There is no way someone sitting in a car would be able to reach up and grab a 6'4" guy by the throat. Brown had to have been bending over with his head in the window, something Johnson has not said he was doing. People who haven't watched the witnesses claims don't want the truth. Watch the video and then you and I can discuss minute by minute what Johnson says happened.

    Yes, panic mode. Why?

    Not really talking about whether he was justified or not. I am saying that the # of shots fired wont be relevant, justified or not.

    Number of shots fired, 6 in this case which many say is excessive, will play to the officer's frame of mind. It is very relevant in this case.

    It has been posted in multiple threads here and related to you by me. Why do you still automatically assume it was a illegal shooting and in spite of the evidence already presented to desperately continue to post these postulations with no basis.

    The contemporaneous statement of the witness on the cell phone audio corroborates the story of the police officer, that Brown turned before any shots fired, as the autopsy indicates, and was rushing the police officer when the shots were fired.

    Well how many is he allowed to fire at a fleeing felon who has now turned and is coming back at him after already having attacked him?

    It is only excessive in the minds of those with no clue or get their info from television shows. It plays well in the liberal press but it is irrelevant. People still react normally for up to 15 seconds after actually getting a killing shot so you shoot until you stop the threat. Some people don't even realize they have been shot until they collapse. 15 seconds can be a long time.
