(239 posts)That is what Wilson says happen. Why is Wilson's word truth? Wilson is a human. He is able to lie, just like anyone, no? Honestly - the scenario that happened that seems more plausible - Wilson got pissy bc the two men wouldn't get on the sidewalk like good little niggers when told by him - he backed up, assaulted Mike Brown with the door of his vehicle, and Mike Brown continued to be "uppity" - so, Wilson reached out and grabbed him in an attempt to intimidate and make him obey - Mike Brown fought back - Wilson got in over his head, underestimated Mike Brown's determination to not be treated like chattel - and pulled his gun and shot to end a situation he started and couldn't handle. Police or not, you do not have the right to assault and then put your hands on an American citizen who is doing nothing more than crossing the fucking street. When Wilson pointed his gun at Mike Brown, Brown pushed the gun away - maybe even did try to grab it bc HE was in fear for HIS life by a cop who has insecurity and power struggle issues. Wilson already had one 8 hour stint on another PD that "didn't work out" - uh huh. And, was part of a disbanded PD of which he was not retained bc nobody thought to be part of the corruption and excessive use of force was retained - after which he joined Ferguson's PD. So, his word is as good as any criminal's - no better.
