From the beginning, the news stated he was unarmed. If he HAD a weapon, I'm pretty sure the police would have made sure the media got it right. An idiot can deduce that if you're unarmed you don't attack a policeman...unless you're under the influence of some powerful drug. No word on that, yet. But I'm sure if he had, we'd know about it by now since an autopsy has been performed. Sorry, the law is the law...and a person IS innocent until proven guilty. It's roots are in our Bill of Rights. I'm shocked and saddened it seems by your statement you don't know that. Given that the guy on the video is Michael Brown, given he might have even stole from stores before...no, that's no saint by any means, and probably someone I wouldn't want living next door to me. That doesn't alter the fact that he deserved to die because of it. Counseling at the least and even jail time, yes. Death? No. Given that the officer (name escapes me right now, sorry) may have performed exemplary service as an officer of the law (and might be one heck of a nice guy) doesn't he shot and killed an unarmed man. If you insist that anyone who is hating on these looters and useless, wastes of oxygen is a racist, that's pretty closed minded. Where on earth would you get a ridiculous idea like that? I have no use for people that would burn, steal and terrorize for any reason. It seems to me that there are those who would assume that our constitution only applies to certain citizens. Shame on them.
