Firearms, blades, blunt objects aren't evil.
High capacity ban arguments will always be theoretical. We've had one, it expired and the crime rate didn't increase. Mass shootings are extremely rare, relatively speaking.

You know damned well your local police department is not flying a Reaper, Predator, or any other full sized UAV. Or, if you didn't know and think that's the case then you should probably find news sources other than infowars.
Indeed I do...I currently reside in a town of 5,000 so it's safe to assume they don't fly RPAs (hopefully you like this term better). But you should also know that most police departments aren't flying RC equipment unless RC cars and such are equipped with sophisticated imaging equipment and the like. I also hope you aren't naive enough to think that there aren't departments in your state that fly something more in the family of an MQ-1/9.

I'm no expert on such matters but does your kickass Easystar cost anywhere close to $100k?

Well, this story just took a pretty interesting turn.
Now that pretty rock solid proof of Brown committing a strong arm robbery and assault just prior to the fatal encounter has been made public, does anyone still think the encounter went down anywhere close to the way the 'witnesses' claimed?

I don't trust black witnesses to tell the truth about encounters with police. Especially in cases like these. That boy could have murdered someone a few minutes ago and they'd still pretend like he was a mistreated, misunderstood angel. It's the same thing every time -- they sit there and say that he was just minding his own business and got shot for no reason at all.
Then pictures, video and statements come out that reveal the kid was just another little thug.

Doesn't really change anything for me. I never felt Brown was an angel, and the alleged robbery is a separate incident from the shooting. Sure, they're somewhat connected, but different set of facts. I never fully bought the witnesses claims, nor do I but the officer's claims that Brown went for his gun.
This was nothing more than the police releasing info that paints Brown in a negative manner in an attempt to bolster their public image. If they're going to release reports, they should release ALL of them, including the reports from the shooting.

Have they released any information as to when this robbery took place? Did it happen right before he got shot? Did the cop that shot him know about the robbery/think he was a suspect?

Ferguson, Mo., Police Chief Thomas Jackson said that the robbery took place just before noon on Saturday at a nearby convenience store roughly 10 minutes before a police officer identified as Darren Wilson fired the bullet that killed Michael Brown. Police say that the shot was fired after a struggled touched off by Wilson's confronting Brown. Jackson said Wilson is a six-year veteran with no disciplinary action on his record.

A decent article, but there are things I don't fully agree with. Others have alluded to the glossing of the looting among others.
I also want to know when did the peace sign include a thumb? Not saying Brown was flipping a gang sign, but to call it the peace sign is not being intellectually honest either.
ETA:
The one thing I will say about the photos of Brown and the clerk is he should be playing DL for a SEC school.

Get past the title, and read this column. It's excellently written, and very thought provoking.
Greg Howard - Deadspin
Article is total shite.
Article failed to mention, not even once, black-on-black crime and the causality for why certain black neighborhoods are seen as dangerous by LEOs and whites and even affluent blacks.
It's time to lay the blame where the blame needs to be laid.
Start with the shite stirrers like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and the MSM and Black Panthers. Start right there.
You could right volumes after that.

They're completely connected. The officer was responding to the 911 call of that exact robbery.

Would probably be a good thing to let investigations take it's course without deciding the officers are guilty immediately then.

Or, it's the facts of what happened, leading up to the shooting.

It's under investigation by outside agencies, is it not?

On the OT thread, someone stated that his friend and the witness admitted to the FBI that they robbed the convenient store of swisher sweets.

808bass, you clearly dont know shite about doraville ga. Google map it. Its atlanta, and a very bad part of atlanta, pretty much a lawless area ran by mexican drug cartels.

"Michael Brown’s family is beyond outraged at the devious way the police chief has chosen to disseminate piece meal information in a manner intended to assassinate the character of their son, following such a brutal assassination of his person in broad daylight," the statement said.

"There is nothing based on the facts that have been placed before us that can justify the execution style murder of their child by this police officer as he held his hands up, which is the universal sign of surrender," the statement said.

If I'm not mistaken, Johnson (the guy that robbed the store with him), said that. So take anything he said with a grain of salt.
