Sorta surprised at how you are buying into and promoting the "victim" is at fault narrative..

It is always how these events are twisted by those who seek to rationalize clearly egregious acts

These facts are incontrovertible, an unarmed black teen was executed on the street in Ferguson by a bullet thru his skull, after sustaining at least 5 other bullet wounds, including one thru his eye

I am sorry, you can make this kid out as the worst thug in Missouri

In the country I thought I lived in, armed police are not authorized to perform summary executions on anyone

..and I have sympathy for the officer

His wanton act has destroyed his life and that of his loved ones

But he is clearly not qualified to be a law enforcement officer, cause that ain't law enforcement, at least for most of us, nor should he be allowed to ever legally wield a weapon again..

...and apparently, so far, a strong case exists for him being in prison

Maybe there was one for Brown, too

But this cop made sure he will never face that music, and that is not how the system is supposed to work, nor can this action be excused or minimized

It was wrong and attempting to justify it is also wrong
