Activate persecution card.
You're getting "jumped" on because you keep couching your statements with careful qualifiers, despite the fact that there is clear evidence freely available to view.
I posted the video. Here it is again. Jump to the 35 second mark and watch for the next 10 seconds. You clearly see Johnson's hand place the box of cigarillo's back on the counter. http://video.foxnews.com/v/37324120...y-in-ferguson/?intcmp=obnetwork#sp=show-clips
The bullet wound to the forearm could have happened from behind or from in front. Currently no way to tell.
If I did not misunderstand the doctor there is one shot on his arm that could have been a shot from behind, but it's impossible to tell due to the flexibility of your arm. It could be one of several scenarios. If I understood that wrong someone please correct me, but that is how I understood what the doctor was saying.

Missed the presser, so the key points were no evidence of struggle and what else?

That's actually in their training.
Wait what? When I went to bed last night it was accepted that Mike did steal the cigars, even their lawyers admitted it. Is there new information? Not that him stealing cigars has any baring on his murder.

It seems to me that the way the shots are all in that upper area near the head, that the cop unloaded those shots in a rapid fire succession while Brown was either standing with his head down and his arms up, or on the ground with his head down and his arms up.
Either way, I think the autopsy results show enough evidence considering the distance he was shot at, and the eyewitness reports, the cop needs to be arrested and charged.

6 shots total that hit Brown. One could have possibly been from behind, but impossible to tell. Couple of shots had multiple entry/exit wounds. Last two shots killed him, and all but the last shot at the apex of his head were survivable.
You are getting people mixed up Johnson is his friend. Brown is the man who died.
Oooooof course they are. Fits their narrative of crazy uncontrolled black thugs.
Angle of the head wounds were downward and forward in relation to the body.
Talking about johnson, not brown.

Johnson is the friend of Brown.
Of course they would.

Of course they would. have to cater to their audience
It's been stated multiple times in this thread that he did in fact steal the cigars.

But Dr. Baden is one of their correspondents...
Mike did. His friend didn't.

Asking questions to clear up some confusion in light of new info is totally different from asserting something that's been proved wrong.
You were doing the latter

No but a lot of the witnesses said he was struck in the back and that's when he turned around, hence my question.
Weird.
Also, has their been discussion about that background conversation in one of the videos? Is that bullshit too? Because the sources I've seen that come from seem like it'd be bullshit but it was in the video, so I'm not sure. GAF is smarter than me, so I rely on you guys.
Why are you watching Fox News? Seriously though you already know what position they are going to take.

The likelihood of that being the case is becoming less and less, yes.

Makes perfect sense, who wouldn't run toward someone who is shooting lethal projectiles at you? /s
Not having a bullet wound doesn't mean you were'nt fired upon.
Apparently it is a hard concept for you to grasp.
Isn't the burglary stuff irrelevant, whether he did or didn't do it? I thought the officer that shot him had no idea of this "burglary"...so it divorces it from the specific altercation, regardless. No?
EDIT: nevermind, it's being discussed because people are trying to determine if the witness was an accomplice, therefore reliable or not...

don't forget the post 'I'm leaving this mean thread!' potshotAh the ol "drop a controversial opinion, double down on it when corrected then dip out after 'misphrasing' one's statement" angle; your technique is decent but your application is meh.
Gotta work on it man.

Of course! Let's ignore all evidence and witness testimonies to the contrary...
Doesn't Wilson have injuries on his face?

Don't you ever "hate listen/watch" to shows just to see how insane they are?

There would've been marks on Brown if he had punched/elbowed him, etc. Maybe he slammed the car door on his face or something? Unsure.

Possibly when Brown was running he heard shots being fired, so he turned towards the officer with his hands up hoping the officer would stop shooting at him. Inadvertently giving the officer an easier target which he took advantage of.
If you find yourself misphrasing thing perhaps it's best to take more time before hitting that post button.
I can't do this. Shit just drives me to rage.

We know there was a struggle--all of the witnesses saw that. We don't know the extent of the struggle. It's unlikely he punched the cop.
I have seen no evidence of that. You would think the police would have released some sort of medical report to help support that claim though.

How would anyone possibly know that when Wilson is nowhere to be found? No hospital records AFAIK even confirm this. The only person saying this is the police chief.

Do they smoke crystal meth for breakfast or what?

The physical form of blasphemy
Bullets are fast and tiny. They probably thought one of the bullets fired at him, struck him (still could have in his arm). But it was more Brown turning around to surrender after being fired upon, thinking this would stop the cop from killing him. Sadly, he was wrong.

The hospital can't just release records on patients. If the PD is saying he went to the hospital, he more than likely went to the hospital. Something like that is easily verifiable at trial.
Can't say that I do.
They stated there was damage to the face I thought in the press conference, but mentioned it may have happened when he fell to the ground, but was uncertain.
edit: Whoops you guys were talking about Wilson not Brown... MY FAULT!
Ugh. This is such bullshit. I don't know how anyone could be on the police side of this issue. Even the most daft should see something wrong here.

no gun powder on body = he was not in close range = he was not fighting the cop but running away
Who happens to be the same police chief who said an organized group of criminals encroached on their command center with Molotov's, when in actuality it was just the community peacefully protesting. Get this guy the fuck out of here with his BS.
