It is now coming out that the police responded to a Strong Arm Robbery where Michael Brown was one of the suspects.
The police officer who shot and killed an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Missouri over the weekend was on his way to a robbery call when he ran into Michael Brown.
At a press conference on Friday, Ferguson police released the name of the officer who shot Brown and provided more details about the events that led to his death.
The police report from Saturday's armed robbery incident that led to Brown's shooting names Brown as a suspect in the robbery. www.businessinsider.comavebury (5,103 posts) http://upload.democraticunderground.com/10025389825
Why is no one in the media asking the most important question? If Brown is alleged to have stole several boxes of cigars - where are all those boxes of cigars at the murder scene?
This story it totally ridiculous!
The police report for the robbery also names Dorian Johnson as being with Brown in the convenience store they allegedly stole from. Johnson was a witness to Brown's shooting and said that Brown had his hands up when he was shot.Hmmm...
That won't play well with the leftists...

1. And it was an armed robbery Where's the gun? You mean to tell me there's no loot and it just is?
Too ****ing convenient.
I call bullshit.
Strong Arm robbery means he used threats and physical force not a gun, dipshit.

3. I'm not buying any of it and I really question that a black police officer actually did the shooting
He could have, of course, but the whole thing has a very fishy smell to it..Didn't even hear of a robbery prior to all of this....
Wait... A BLACK COP shot him!?!?! The reason you didn't hear about a ****ing robbery prior to all this is you didn't wait to find out what happened. You jumped to conclusions... just like every other time you retards find something to push your agenda.

In other words - Fergusson Police Chief is playing the blame the victim card. I have a feeling that he has just really pissed off the people of Fergusson. Since Michael Brown was black then of course he has to have been the strong arm robber.

3. An unrelated incident. He allegedly stole a box of cigars. Probably larceny not robbery. It's not even clear from the report that he walked out of the store with the cigars. The Oligarchs steal billions and walk the planet free and easy. Michael Brown is dead for a box of cigars. Is that the justification? Come on, now.
We have a Strong Arm robbery where violence is used and a named suspect. The police see the suspect and stop. The suspect attacks the police and is shot. THE OTHER SUSPECT SAYS IT WAS IN COLD BLOOD! What am I missing here?

4. The police chief alleged that it was several boxes of cigars.
The time between the alleged strong arm robbery and the shooting was pretty short. If Brown took several boxes of cigars, what happened to them? There was no evidence at the site of the shooting of any boxes of cigars. If Brown has stolen boxes of cigars, the presence on scene of said cigar boxes would have bolstered the police chief's story. But there are not any cigar boxes.
As story invention occurs, this one is pretty weak.
But you don't know that the cigars were there or not. You are just making up shit as you go along!

41. Here's what I think happened...
according to Brown's friend, the other suspect in the strong arm robbery the cop pulled up beside them and they approached the car, words were exchanged, and the cop got angry and tried to come out of the car. His door bounced back on him because they were so close and they probably laughed at him.
(remember I said this is what I think happened)
When they laughed, the cop gets really pissed and draws his weapon off his right hip and presents it through the window of the driver's door.
Now, if you are 1, maybe 2 feet from a pistol pointed at your stomach - and have nothing to protect you except your hands, DON'T YOU ****IN' THINK YOU MIGHT TRY TO GRAB, PUSH, MOVE, DEFLECT THAT GUN SOMEWAY. Hell, you would probably do it without even thinking, just out of reflex. And during that reflex event and ensuing grapple, the first shot went off. Brown is hit and the kids split.
At this point the cop could have "Barney Fife'd" his way out of it, but no, he chases him down the street and shoots him in the back, prompting Brown's attempt at surrender. The execution then ensues.
This may not have been murder with the first shot, but it sure seems it was by the last
Remember, this is what I think happened.
Peace

13. The cop executed the kid. And now they have video. Dayum! And they wouldn't even TALK to the witness that was with Brown the day the cop murdered him! And now his story is corroborated with VIDEO!
Have you seen the video?

34. It is possible that the officer who shot Brown was bruised in the face
If he was pulling Brown into the vehicle, through the window, and Brown was resisting (pushing away from the vehicle) and then the cop pulled his gun on him, it is very possible that Brown tried to defend himself from the gun by trying to push it away from aiming at him, or even push the officer in the face in his attempt to free himself. It's probably what any one would do with a gun pointing at them and an angry cop holding that gun while wrestling with him. I'm sure it's what I would do.
Just because the officer has facial bruises (if true) it doesn't mean he wasn't the one responsible for the entire altercation.
This whole thing just makes me sick. Especially the words of the police chief, who make it obvious he is siding with the officer. And I am so proud of this community, standing up against the tanks and guns with arms raised in the air "don't shoot me". What an amazing scene that is. What courage these people have. I wish I was there to protest with them.
Just because the suspect of a Strong Arm Robbery was Michael Brown, Just because the Police officer was injured trying to stop him. Just because there was a struggle for the gun in the police car. Just because the only eye witness is the OTHER SUSPECT!!!! of course the cop executed the kid in cold ****ing blood.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you our new Saint Skittles.
