Want to know why Michael Brown Robbing a store is relevant to why he got shot?

Do you want to know what would have made this story better?

If Brown had stolen a case of skittles.

Becuase he probably thought the officer came back to arrest him. And that is why he fought with the cop.
He had that "gentle giant" reputation that couldnt be besmirched by a strong arm robbery on someone half his size
I said the same thing in the other thread only to be told
how is it relevant in any way when the cop had no clue about it? ... the plain fact is that it is irrelevant.
Well the officers fractured eye socket speaks volumes of its relevance...

all this is fine and dandy until Micheal Brown stopped running and put his hands in the air as 3 witnesses reported. Once he did that, the officer no longer should have been pulling that trigger.

If it turns out that officer Wilson did in fact have his orbital socket broken, what would you say then?

In the time you turn around and put your hands in the air, is about the same amount of time I can squeeze off 5 rounds or more with a semi auto pistol
As to hands in air. I have had several drunks in my younger days bum rush me. And they all had their hands in the air.

I have had guys in the ring who should know better come at me with their hands in the air and their head lowered

If I beat the shit out a police officer then ran and stopped running and gave myself up, guess what..the police is not allowed to do anything but arrest me

Only person to say he was bum rushed is the Officer...EVERY other witness is saying he turned around with his hands up

If the officer percieves you as a threat coming towards him he is obligated by nature and protocol to stop the threat.
Sorry man. I can do a mag dump on you with 15 bullets before you hit the ground.
I'll still be pulling the trigger on an empty pistol before you kiss the sidewalk

and that's why you should not be a cop
