I think the first batch of wounds were actually pretty superficial. I
would like to say Wilson was trying not to have to kill the punk
but I
fear it was just bad shooting. Some shots were never recovered and
didn't hit Brown at all.

I think like half... at the same time I do math and I can not see any
way looking at a 6 foot 6 inch 300 pounder running at me, I would
try to
do anything but kill on every shot... no wounding. As to that, I have
had a lot of cop friends and iirc, it's pretty much illegal to "fire a
warning shot, or wound to slow down". Pull the trigger, it's lethal
force, period...

That is what they tell us in the CCW classes and they are usually
police instructors doing it.

The problem with most of these things is the cop forgets rule #1
"Aim".
They spray and pray when one well placed shot would end it.

Yeah, like I said I think I had heard that before. My dads rule was
"never touch another mans gun unless you intend to fire it, and never
fire it if you don't want to kill something"...

Back to this wound thing.. or even follow thing the pundits and racists
are saying... Again, this was a 300 pound 6'6 man closing from less than
35 feet away. Ask any quarterback if you have time to wound or slow
down. And anybody at all who thinks after fighting with the cop, being
shot, and turning around and attacking the shooter that kid woudln't
have killed the cop if he closed in, is lying, or retarded... period...
mostly just lying...

Nobody is "lying" or "retarded" Scott. All that is being discussed here
is speculative ideas on what may have actually happened. No one here
was there to see it, including you. The multiple witnesses who were
there and saw it have many conflicting stories and recollections.

Nancy Grace is no slouch and she usually sides on the side of cops...not
this time:

Nancy Grace gives me the creeps so I rarely watch or listen to her.

People are posting an adult "rap" sheet on Brown, yet the Ferguson police
department said he didn't have any kind of adult record. Others are
claiming a juvenile record that tied Brown to a 2nd degree murder but
nothing of the sort has been officially released.

The only think I know for sure is that Brown was a punk. I know that
because I saw him rob the store for the cigars, shove the proprietor
around and intimidate him, as recorded by the store's video camera system.

Did that or the events that followed justify killing him? I don't know.
I wasn't there and the reports by witnesses are full of contradictions.

The manner in which the county prosecutor handled the case via the Grand
Jury is, according to most of the legal beagles who have commented, is
not completely unheard of but *is* very unusual.

Right on.
