: I don't see what that has to do with

: facts in the current case from Missouri.

: guy get that close to the car? I've heard
: how the bullets entered the front of his

It has to do more with the rampant racism that still exists in this country in too much of a degree. As far as Michael Brown being shot in the front, eyewitness reports were that he was running away, the cop fired at him, he stopped and turned around and put his hands up essentially surrendering to the officer at which point the officer pretty much decided to execute him. That's how the shots came in from the front. Once a person surrenders himself/herself aren't cops supposed to "hold them at bay" if they want to wait for backup or cuff and arrest them? I've still never been clear on reports of the moments that led to that, though, and it's too tough to know who to believe because the police department did and said some very fishy things in the days immediately following the event. I think there's fault on both sides, no one is totally clear, but it does seem clear Michael Brown was killed in a situation that didn't warrant it.
: Why do things keep going back to money?
Because that's what has corrupted our government to an insane degree! Politicians, especially Republican ones, aren't listening to the people they're supposed to be representing. They're listening to people like the Koch Brothers who give them millions in campaign contributions in order to convince the politicians to do their bidding and pass laws that benefit those who are already filthy-stinking rich instead of the average Americans. This is why rulings like Citizens United need to be overturned so that instead of politicians getting ridiculous amounts of money from those pulling their strings, they'll have to start listening more to the people of their districts and states.
Tax breaks for the rich was a bad idea when Reagan came up with it and it has created the ridiculous level of income inequality we see today. In a poll from various countries around the world the majority of people agree that a fair income gap for CEOs should be 6-10 times what the average worker makes. Despite that, Americans think our inequality is about 30 to 1. Worse than that the inequality is actually closer to 300 to 1! Reagan's "trickle down economics" don't work when the CEOs "glass" doesn't overflow due to their "glass" continually just getting bigger. :-(
