Mike Brown had no felony juvenile record, and was not facing any charges when he was killed

[Anti Federalist]

ah, c'mon. You lived in a city with ghettos. They are animals there. Every single one of them.

I hate to keep plugging it, but everybody really needs to go read this.

It really explains a lot of what the people of Ferguson and the surrounding towns are suffering under.

You posted exactly what I've been screaming about for weeks. Revenue drives the actions of the police departments in this country. Revenue. Revenue. Greed as opposed to outright malice.

I wouldn't go there. But we have some people that believe that police in certain crime ridden areas just go out and club someone over a head like a baby seal for absolutely no reason when over 90% of the police-citizen encounters in this country do not result in a violent confrontation.

Some cops do club people like baby seals. There is irrefutable evidence. That 10% you claim is a bitch when you are on the receiving end. Of course that could never happen to you. Ever.

Actually it has.

I think I had divulged this previously. About 10 years ago, I was traveling from Harlem towards midtown in a Cadillac Escalade around 1:30 AM when I was confronted and cut off by two unmarked police vehicles and 2 NYPD squad cars. I was immediately surrounded and had 5 Glocks pointed at my head from 3 different angles. I was then grabbed from the car and then slammed collarbone first into the rear window of my SUV. I was given a shot to the ribs with a nightstick and a few rabbit punches, all the while asking what I had done. I distinctly remember seeing the people in this nearby trendy outdoor cafe freak out and after seeing me being manhandled in such a violent fashion. LOL I was later revealed that they had thought I had stolen the vehicle and eventually my alleged DUI charge (I blew .0806 BAC) was thrown out.

What could be more of an example of outright malice, than harassing, arresting, fining, jailing, beating, tasering, and killing people for your paycheck.

You've just become a meme, I think.

No Outright Malice.

Wow. You are really getting ahead of yourself. Think of the way most human beings are wired. Most shy away from confrontation and that includes police officers. Logically speaking, if you incite enough confrontations eventually all it can take is one that can kill you. In the police officer's case, they want compliance and revenue. And yes, there are an increasing share of sociopaths that reflect this disturbing trend in our society that become officers. But to say that a plurality of police officers go out of their way to commit outright malice for sheer entertainment purposes is frankly ridiculous. Like I stated earlier, over 90% of the encounters between citizens and police officers do not involve violence.

Most likely this was done intentionally to spread around false information to taint and poison public opinion. /smh

What we're seeing is lawless police committing multiple additional crimes in order to cover up a murder by one of their own. The spreading of rumors falls under "obstruction of justice" - they're trying to poison the jury pool.

This has to be BS. Neocons all over the net (and even HERE) were swearing up and down that Big Mike had a murder conviction in his sealed juvenile file. And that Officer what's his name had an orbital fracture, and broken jaw. You're gonna tell me none of that is true ? No way ...

I am sick of the media race baiting. If this guy was white, we wouldn't hear about it on national news. It's sick propaganda.

Yup. See Utah incident. Not a peep. Much worse optics too.

Where did Johnson say he was a murderer? He simply stated that he had a tip about a possible connection to a gangland murderer. 2nd degree murder can be charged for mere association. Secondly, this report has (a) not divulged his entire JV record or (b) revealed to us about prior charges that never led to conviction. Theoretically, his entire record could be clean, but based on the tape, I seriously doubt it. You just don't decide to commit strong arm robbery out of the blue. That surveillance tape is the biggest hindrance to the Michael Brown case since it establishes a precedent of utilizing force in an illegal fashion, which would corroborate with the eyewitness reports of a possible physical struggle with the police officer.

First off, Chuck Johnson is the epitome of an demagogic partisan hack. I've even seen him call "The Dumbest Man on The Internet" (Google it) a "great" man. The guy is a profiteering tool and anyone who reposts his propaganda is demagogic themselves.

Now, about this alleged "Strong Arm" robbery, we really don't know what happened and the fact that the authorities cherry pick edited the tape makes me even more suspicious. For all we know, the store owner might have been arguing with Brown about extending more credit... It is telling that he never reported the "robbery" and, for certain, the term "Strong Arm Robbery", while it could be technically correct, barely applies to taking a box of Swishers. Again, I see Demagoguery

Not neo-cons. Authoritarian Bootlickers.

I have the same thoughts. I sent this same thought to everyone I know. The replies I got make me sick. I haven't been the same since. Time for some changes. They are doing the bidding of their masters. They blindly fuck all-of-us over every single day of the week regardless of race and religion (except the one their masters follow).

Aren't they the same thing really ?

Well, of course many boot lickers are "liberals" -- but plenty of "conservatives/neocons" are as well . They both want a police state, but just disagree on how it should be brought about.

Brown's stepfather Louis Head has a long rap sheet, including gang relations. See snippets below. Meanwhile, Wilson's mother was a drug addict and thief who died when he was only 16.
