Ha..
Give me a break. Shot at 50 yds?? Where do you get your ridiculous non-facts ... IHateWhitePigs.com? Nobody shoots anybody with a pistol at 50 yds. Navy SEALS don't shoot people with handguns at 50 yds. It doesn't happen and it didn't happen. Absurd. Dismissed.

I feel for those poor dumb blacks who really thought he would be indicted. How utterly naive are they, almost like children in their lack of understanding of the crimnal justice system.
Give me a break.

The initial autopsy report said the shots were fired from as close as one foot to as far as 30 feet. I cannot find anything stating any further distance (and this does not mean that the shots were fired from 30 feet away - it just means that they COULD have been fired from as far as 30 feet away or as close as 1 foot away).

After Brown autopsy, mom wants officer arrested

Did anyone notice how many protesters walked away before hearing all of the descriptions of the evidence?

If people walk away before hearing the descriptions of the evidence then for them how could it be about what really happened instead of what they think happened?

Those simpleton thugs need to turn in their weapons and badges before someone else gets killed.

Well, so far not much has happened from the protester side, just a little looting which probably would have happened anyway on an ordinary night in that area.

The cops are maneuvering and shooting tear gas for no particular reason, I guess just on general principles.

They are using tear gas because the thugs are vandalizing police cars, throwing bottles, etc.

Right?! The police cars are completely TRASHED. Can't blame the police for using tear gas!

would have been nice if obama making his speech would have given a shout out to Officer Wilson, he didn't even tell his fans to not do harm to Officer Wilson, he was again empathizing with his fans..
