>> But I would hope a cop has minimum common sense to drive off and call for back up You simply do not understand what the officer's job is. Once the initial encounter was had, Wilson's job was to keep his eyes on Brown, so that once the backup arrives he could be arrested. In the meantime, Brown decided to attack Wilson.
