#1 Unfortunately ownership of the "media problem" extends a bit beyond Ferguson, Missouri.

#2 The Truth actually IS that Brown was a THUG and a THIEF. He got called for it by a White Cop, and assaulted the cop and was in the process of attacking the cop who was a smaller man INSIDE the Police Car. And the police officer shot the black hump right in the eye and blew his brains out.
That is real life. Happens a LOT. Live with it. You won't hear a peep out of the "Media" if its a Black Cop shooting a thug going for his face while making a grab.

Don't LIKE the story line? Want a new TV and few bottles of Chivas Regal?
WHITE mutha#$%^. Give "the people" what they want.

#3 The left and many in the black community put forth a ridiculous narrative about what happened without ever knowing what happened. As things cool down and the legal process plays out, we will find out what happened. Most likely, the evidence will support a justified shooting. That won't matter, we will probably witness another round of burning and looting.

#4 Sadly, the cop has every reason to be terrified, of his own government. If his shooting was justified, and it may well be, and if an honest grand jury fails to indict, rest assurred that the DOJ will charge him with federal civil rights violations, a la LAPD, and those jurors will convict out of fear for their lives. You have seen this playbook before.
This administration wants him, screw the truth!!

#5 What amazed me is it was Brown's accomplice who provided the original narrative and nobody questioned a word of it (or provided any evidence to refute it for at least a week).

The cops in Ferguson were pathetic in the era of the 24 hour news cycle.

#6 A must read -- much bigger and insightful than a rehash of the foolishness in Ferguson.

#7 Regular Joe-
Thanks for saying read the whole thing. Very good read that uses Ferguson as an example that "the beast must always be fed".
