We don't know that since the prosecutor overlooked Johnson's testimony that Wilson use his vehicle as a weapon.No. If RK is correct that Wilson used his vehicle against Brown then the first felony was committed by Wilson.See I call bull shit on that one. The cop tried to run the kid over, then went to get out and arrest and the kid pushed his door shut twice... then the cop reached for the gun and the kid reached in to stop him... show me a video tape or evidence I'm wrong.Of course he reached for his gun, after Brown hit him twice, are you suggesting Wilson didn't have a right to reach for the gun the PD issued him? Should he have gave Brown a bouquet of flowers instead?
You've grown tiresome on this topic Mike, at first it was funny, now you're just coming across as an idiot.
It doesn't matter even Mike. Once Brown shoved that door in , he was guilty of a felony and Wilson had every right to use whatever force necessary to arrest him and Brown certainly did NOT have the right to resist a lawful arrest.
No matter how you look at it, Wilson used piss poor judgement and thankfully is no longer a cop.
If RK is right, which he isn't.
And I've already said he made some tactical mistakes .
This case should have gone to trial.
Wasn't Johnson the one who said Brown was shot in the back? Why would you believe anything from a witness who has an incentive to lie, has been proven to have lied, and who just robbed a store? Why would you? Can you show somewhere that Wilson has a history of abuses against blacks or minorities? Why would Wilson suddenly do something out of character like this? Keep in mind Wilson was on the way to a call to help a kid with a respiratory problem , while brown had just roughed up a store clerk. Now put their respective frame of minds side by side on your balance sheet, and see what probable actions would correspond.
