[quote]The Gateway Pundit can now confirm from two local St. Louis sources that police Officer Darren Wilson suffered facial fractures during his confrontation with deceased 18 year-old Michael Brown.[/quote] [url]http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2014/08/breaking-report-po-darren-wilson-suffered-orbital-blowout-fracture-to-eye-socket-during-encounter-with-mike-brown/[/url]
I bet protesters are gonna feel dumb after this whole thing is wrapped up.
He got off easy, it hasn't displaced much and appears to be a fairly clean break.
[QUOTE=MR-X;45740561]I bet protesters are gonna feel dumb after this whole thing is wrapped up.[/QUOTE] Mike Browns death isn't the reason for protests anymore, he was merely the straw that broke the camels back.
[QUOTE=MR-X;45740561]I bet protesters are gonna feel dumb after this whole thing is wrapped up.[/QUOTE] To be honest, it doesn't really matter how it all started. What followed afterwards is concerning enough on it's own.
[QUOTE=MR-X;45740561]I bet protesters are gonna feel dumb after this whole thing is wrapped up.[/QUOTE] They should, but they won't.
[QUOTE=MR-X;45740561]I bet protesters are gonna feel dumb after this whole thing is wrapped up.[/QUOTE] Like he was the reason they're rioting.
It's too bad this cop will never be able to show himself in public again without being murdered.
Not surprised. At all.
[QUOTE=OvB;45740726]It's too bad this cop will never be able to show himself in public again without being murdered.[/QUOTE] He'll probably just move towns and nobody will remember him. They haven't really been focusing on the cop too much.
wow amazing, you mean people jumped to conclusions without waiting for the facts first? (zimmerman case)
I would hit a cop too if he was trying to kill me.
I don't trust the source and anyone who thinks the anger of the people of Ferguson is [i]just[/i] about Michael Brown is completely fucking clueless.
if that yt cracka wasnt tryna jone on a nigga he wouldnt have caught that mean ass whoopin lol smh
[QUOTE=MR-X;45740561]I bet protesters are gonna feel dumb after this whole thing is wrapped up.[/QUOTE] I mean look at this statement ^^^ Are people deaf? Have they not been hearing any of the countless people chiming in that this is about more than Michael Brown? That it's about decades of discrimination from law enforcement, unfair media treatment, and a million other racial issues bubbling just under the surface of American society? How completely clueless does someone have to be to have access to all of this information, all of these different viewpoints and [b]still[/b] think that the protesting in Ferguson is just "some people who are angry because this one kid got shot" and not, instead, the boiling point of a huge number of other issues?
The fact that this news site is run by a tea party member and has been cited by people from Fox News makes me seriously doubt the legitimacy of this information.
The shooting is still the big talking point for the racial aspect. Here's Al Sharpton speaking to a crowd in Ferguson just flat out saying that Brown was surrendering with his hands in the air and that people should be angry about the injustice of his being shot: [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFjKUOIEh_0[/url]
[QUOTE=Primigenes;45740810][url]http://www.cnn.com/2014/08/11/us/missouri-ferguson-michael-brown-what-we-know/[/url] Why? It was already confirmed the Officer had some sort of facial injury. This is just going into specifics[/QUOTE] I'm not going to argue about whether or not this specific shooting was justified because [b]THAT TOTALLY MISSES THE POINT OF WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY[/b] The same thing happened after the Trayvon Martin shooting. People argued for page after page in thread after thread about whether Zimmerman was in the right, everyone completely oblivious to the fact that the controversy surrounding that shooting [i]and this one[/i] [b]are about bigger issues than just one shooting[/b].
[QUOTE=Primigenes;45740907]I'm not arguing on the shooting. I'm talking about the orbital blowout fracture mentioned in the source You said you didn't trust the source and I'm asking why. Is it because they said he feared for his life or because you don't believe the cop was injured? You need to be more specific I'm not talking about who's right or wrong. I'm asking what your reasoning for not trusting the source is[/QUOTE] Because it's a right-wing trash blog.

[QUOTE=OvB;45741067]Why does a cop defending himself ignite a powder keg of racism?[/QUOTE] same reason people blew up over the zimmerman case and yelled racism.
Why can't people wait for the investigation to be over to protest and shout injustice?
[QUOTE=OvB;45741067]Why does a cop defending himself ignite a powder keg of racism?[/QUOTE] Because there is systemic racism present there? It's not necessarily the cop's fault, he just got caught in the middle of it all. Something was eventually going to give.
[QUOTE=OvB;45741067]Why does a cop defending himself ignite a powder keg of racism?[/QUOTE] Because police brutality is a serious problem that greatly affects minorities due to racial profiling in the police force and a widely publicized story that sounds like a blatant racist execution due to sensationalist reporting is very likely to piss off a lot of people in the country. [QUOTE=OvB;45741081]Why can't people wait for the investigation to be over to protest and shout injustice?[/QUOTE] Because people have lost faith in police getting punished for brutality.
[QUOTE=OvB;45741067]Why does a cop defending himself ignite a powder keg of racism?[/QUOTE] Because plenty of people don't believe that he was defending himself because plenty of people don't trust the police. [QUOTE=OvB;45741081]Why can't people wait for the investigation to be over to protest and shout injustice?[/QUOTE] [I]Because people are human beings with emotions.[/I] They feel strongly about things. Not everybody can be the cold, analytical robot that you expect them to be to satisfy your false sense of "objectivity." Lots of black people in America feel profoundly disenfranchised by the system; if you tried to have a tiny little bit of sympathy towards their position you might suddenly find their attitudes and their protests, if not endeared to you, at least [I]understandable[/I].
[QUOTE=Primigenes;45740810][url]http://www.cnn.com/2014/08/11/us/missouri-ferguson-michael-brown-what-we-know/[/url][/QUOTE] So wait. Is this the story of both sides, the neutral one, pure facts: Darren tells some guys including Brown to stop from inside of a cop car. Now either those guys or the cop gets so close to each other that Darren can't exit the car. There's a struggle between Darren and Brown. Shots are fired from inside of the car. Brown runs away. Darren exits the car and there's more shooting. Brown dies. Story supporting only Brown. Darren pulls up to them, tells them to stop, slams them with the car door, grabs Brown through the window, Brown defends himself and injures Darren, Darren shoots Brown, Brown runs, Darren exits the car, Brown surrenders but Darren shoots him anyway. Story supporting only Darren. He pulls up to them, tells them to stop, tries to exit the car but Brown pushes the door and Darren is pushed back into the car. Brown attacks Darren, Darren fires in self defense, Brown runs, Darren exists the car, Brown tries to tackle him, and Darren shoots him again. Most probable story according to me: Darren pulls up to them, tells them to stop, tries to exit the car but Brown pushes the door and Darren is pushed back into the car. Brown attacks Darren, Darren fires in self defense, Brown runs, Darren exists the car, Brown surrenders but Darren shoots him anyway. I think it's possible that Brown attacked Darren when he was inside the car, but I really doubt he would try again after the first shots were fired. And I think that Darren might have been in a state of mind that would make him shoot a surrendering guy, I mean he had half of his face bashed in by him a moment ago. I'm not justifying it, just saying it's possible. But I don't know, just my speculation. I'm gonna wait with making up my mind till evidence is clear. I don't even know if the version with the car is real or not. Does anyone have some info on that?

[QUOTE=OvB;45741081]Why can't people wait for the investigation to be over to protest and shout injustice?[/QUOTE] Because people are fucking stupid and prone to knee jerk reactions.
[QUOTE=Zephyrs;45741355]Because people are fucking stupid and prone to knee jerk reactions.[/QUOTE] You can't just write off all the outraged people as "fucking stupid."
[QUOTE=SoaringScout;45741364]You can't just write off all the outraged people as "fucking stupid."[/QUOTE] I can write off anyone screaming bloody murder over a shooting without any analysis as fucking stupid. Sure, there's tons of other shit going on here, but people have legitimately gone apeshit over this incident, in the exact same way as the martin and zimmerman case. At the end of the day, if you jump to conclusions one way or another without waiting for actual evidence, you are fucking stupid. It's that simple.
