I never had the need to reach for a police officer's gun while he was sitting in his cruiser. There's still hope. So, you going to attack a cop in his cruiser? Nah...but Bert the john Bircher might. 😀 -- Sent from my iPhone 6+ |

Only if Brown was shot in the back ... and he wasn't. When he turned around and approached the officer, not following the orders to "get on the ground", he was presenting a clear and present danger. Brown had already demonstrated that he would kick Wilson's ass in a fair fight. Fortunately for Wilson, cops do not have to fight fair. They give them a gun. BTW if this case goes the other way and Wilson does get prosecuted, you can kiss the idea of female officers goodby. 99% of them would never win a fair fight with a guy like Brown. The same is true of most male officers. I don't disagree however I don't recall a command by Wilson to "get on the ground" when Brown turned around appearing in the transcripts. Maybe I missed it? Wilson ordered Brown and Johnson to get on the sidewalk, but that was at the beginning of the altercation. Should Wilson have said please get on the ground or I will shoot you? While he was spewing all of that oration Brown would have had time to physically engage Wilson. Dead perp or dead cop, which do you prefer? "Get on the ground" is a standard command used by the police to gain control of a fluid situation. I don't know if Wilson had time to make this command. Greg commented (above), "When he turned around and approached the officer, not following the orders to "get on the ground", he was presenting a clear and present danger." All I said was that I had not seen the command given in the GJ transcripts. Page 227 line 4&5 "I tell him to get on the ground, get on the ground." Thanks. I missed it completely and I looked twice. |
