    Who Killed Michael Brown?

    The Huffington Post | By Danielle Cadet | Posted: 08/12/2014 11:12 am EDT
    Excerpts:

    "The Ferguson police department will not release the name of the officer involved in the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown, an incident that has grabbed the nation's attention and sparked outrage in the local community.

    The move is an apparent shift after Chief Thomas Jackson initially said that the name would be released by 12 p.m. on Tuesday. The department reportedly chose to delay releasing the name out of fear for the officer's safety.

    Police said Brown, who was unarmed, was shot multiple times Saturday after being confronted by a white officer in Ferguson, a town that is nearly 70 percent black. The FBI opened an investigation into Brown's death on Monday.

    Authorities have offered vague details about the confrontation but said the officer involved has been placed on administrative leave.

    Local residents have taken to the Ferguson streets in demonstrations that have been both violent and peaceful. Demonstrators continued to clash with the local authorities well into Monday evening."

    ......

    IMO: The death of an unarmed 18 year old black person by a policeman who shot Michael Brown multiple times has led to widespread protests, concerns, and questions as to who the policeman is, where he is, and why did he shoot Michael?

    While we wait to see what caused another black death of an unarmed man, the FBI will go on with its investigation as to what took place preceding the shooting.

    Chief Justice Roberts is surely asking himself the question why this incident happened if there is no more discrimination in America...of course he wouldn't know anyway, he lives in a gated community, with security. He needs to get out and see America as it really is, not as he rationalizes it is, possibly to add some credibility to his some of his rulings.

    I imagined Vince McMahon saying that.

    If they did release the name of the cop he would be killed pretty quickly and rightfully so. Eventually his name will get out though as I'm sure he'll be sued in at least a civil case by Michael Brown's family.

    .....

    Wrong again: Both his skin hue, and racism killed Michael Brown. You can also fit police brutality in amongst the reasons that blacks take their lives in their hands when they go out in public.

    You have such a way with words. I was left speechless by the beauty of that sentence. If he is sued in a civil case his name will be released.

    Michael Brown's actions got him killed; hence, he committed suicide.

    You seem to think that repeating a baseless assertion will make it true if you repeat it often enough.

    Explain to us how Michael Brown killed himself by simply walking down the street.

    the baseless assertion is that he was simply walking down the street.

    going for an officer's gun will get you shot (and possibly killed) no matter what your skin color....



    I'm curious, after the cop's name is released, how long it will take Roseanne and Spike Lee to post the address of the cop's parents on twitter (or someone with the same name)

    The cops immediate family is going to be put in harms way and threatened by race-baiters and they will justify it as collateral damage in order to loot them some more shoes tonight.

    There is no let's see. That's how it works. When there is a civil case against someone their name is not kept secret.

    Proof that he did that?

    It's race baiting season, Congress is out of session, and if they don't have story like this, well people might actually start looking at what a crappy job Obama has been doing. It worked with St. Trayvon, although there might never be a case like that again...

    it will come out that this kid was a career criminal and not as great a guy as the left is trying to make him out to be right now.

    Have you got any baby pictures of him you can post next to a bad picture of the cop like was done for baby trayvon?

    because, nothing short of "the officer was a racist, and so is this police department, so he is fired and everyone working here is also fired and must report directly to jail" will appease the race baiters.


    Even if the investigation of the cop shows he did everything right, by the book, etc, people won't believe it.

    Somehow I suspect that most of the posters on this thread aren't Obama supporters.

    So far there is a witness saying that Michael Brown had both hands out of the car when shot. Pretty hard to shoot an officer when both your hands are out of the window of a car. We will see where this goes.

    After the cop is cleared whether it be in a trial or by department , anti Americans will still not accept the verdict.

    Common sense.

    All of the eyewitnesses that contradict the police departments allegations.

    It's not uncommon or odd for the police to lie to try to save their butts.
