Ferguson Decision

Before we make this some sort of David & Goliath scenario, we shouldn't forget that Wilson was also 6'4" so not exactly a little fellow. Michael Brown may have been close to 300 pounds but he was clearly quite overweight. Back in the old days, you'd whack a rowdy kid over the head with a bat, at least that's what they did in my country. Now of course if Brown reached for the gun, that creates a dangerous situation which leaves Wilson little options.

I don't think Wilson and Brown where as unevenly matched as some of Wilson's supporters are trying to make it look. Wilson is a large man and Brown was not in the best shape. You saw similar arguments with the Trayvon Martin case, where some of Zimmerman's supporters tried to describe Martin as this big dangerous guy, whereas the Trayvon supporters would try to make Zimmerman look more menacing then the chubby little Latino that he was.

Wilson's "injuries" also looked thoroughly unconvincing to me. More like he cut himself shaving or some shit, rather then survived an assault from a "huge menacing criminal".

It's weird though, before the witness statements came out and it was discovered that some saw Brown reach for his waist, I looked at the photos and it just seemed to me that Wilson was a little bitch who couldn't handle his shit, basically. He didn't carry a taser because there wasn't enough room on his belt for it. Maybe he was just scrawny. Although that opens up a big can of worms about physical qualifications for other police officers.

I dis-agree

While it is true that media in general loves to stir shit up, I feel American media and its associated social media outlets are the worst of the bunch by far.

There are just too many people who making a living by exploiting racial tension in the states and thus each time something happens the gleefully pour gasoline into the fire hoping to push thier goals forward.

Well, yeah, but America is a lot more racially diverse than other countries.

Meanwhile, on the streets of Ferguson:
And just like that, what little support I still had left for the protestors is gone.

"I appreciate your service, but it's a piece of cloth." Oxymoronic statement by a moron.

My grandfather fought under that flag in WWII in large part so that these pieces of shit could maintain their freedom to protest. Even to desecrate it that's what they wanted. He died a few days ago, and his funeral is upcoming. His casket will be draped with it.

It makes me sick to see these privileged SJWs gleefully destroy it without any sense of awareness of these kind of sacrifices.
