It's relevant to our racist haters, to show that Brown was a criminal negro thug, and deserved to be shot 6 times. That's the appropriate "sentence" for a negro thug for shoplifting, according to our haters.

CJ, The video might be relevant if Wilson had known about the robbery and was noticed that Brown was carrying some cigarillos. But, the chief has stated that wasn't the case. I already explained why it's relevant. Legally it isn't, but in the court of public opinion it is. And the media is trying this case in the latter. Tenchusatsu

>> The video might be relevant if Wilson had known about the robbery and was noticed that Brown was carrying some cigarillos. But, the chief has stated that wasn't the case. Wilson stopped Brown and a friend because "they were in the middle of the street, blocking traffic," Jackson said. Hours later, however, Jackson told a slightly different story to CNN and NBC, saying that Wilson noticed Brown was carrying a box of cigars that had been reported stolen. Wilson, he said, initially stopped Brown for blocking traffic, but as he began driving past Brown, he noticed Brown was holding cigars. At that point, Wilson "made the connection" that Brown might have been involved in a theft that had just been broadcast on police radio, Jackson said. So, the chief corrected his previous statement that there was no connection. That can be the beginning of a new argument as to whether the chief is a liar or just didn't have all the facts at the earlier news conference. But it is consistent with the officer's story.
