Hey- I'm not sure it was abhorrent. Not until all the facts come out. Unlike the Martin case, in which Martin was stalked in his own neighborhood by a hopped up, untrained, self styled vigilante- Brown had apparently done something illegal, used force, and then used force against an officer. Until we get some clarity on this, I wouldn't say anything for sure, but I certainly don't have a lot of sympathy for criminals, when things go wrong when they interact with the police. I don't care what color they are.

If Brown turns out to be the thug he seems to be, he's not the poster child for police abuse.
