Fox News has released a ten-minute videotape taken in the minutes after the shooting of Mike Brown by a Ferguson, Missouri police officer. The operator of the camera claims over and over that Brown was shot for no reason, but also says that he heard the gunshots and came running outside. He also says that he was told that Brown was shot for no reason. At one point, another unidentified voice claims he saw the incident and that Brown was charging the officer.

The second autopsy conducted by famed pathologist Michael Baden reports that Brown was shot 6 times, four times in the right arm and twice in the head. There were no wounds in the back.

In addition, Brown was found to have marijuana in his body at the time of the shooting, hence an anesthesia effect. Also, Holder has sent his DoJ Civil Rights crew to Ferguson and ordered a THIRD autopsy. Remember that Holder did not prosecute the New Black Panthers in the voter intimidation case. The New Black Panthers are in Ferguson calling for the killing of cops and the Captain in charge of the town is now collaboration with the new Black Panther leader Michael Shabazz. Talk about Holder's "Justice for us".
BTW, the Chicago Communist Party is also in Ferguson.

Gary--I am forwarding two videos re Ferguson which I found interesting. Both are by black people who take on the black demonstrators/rioters/looters in no uncertain terms. While the lady is quite passionate, she is also profane and uses "nigger" and "mf/the f bomb" with abandon. The guy is somewhat calmer with no real vulgarity or racial stuff, and who appears to be a black guy who, at least in this instance, is angry at ignorant, irresponsible blacks rather than whites and/or police officers. You may or, then again may not, want to post either, but we should all be grownups here, no??
In addition, I believe Casenet documents Brown's adult criminal record as being charged (I do not have any disposition) on 11/02/14 with four felony counts (1st degree burglary, two counts of armed criminal action, and 1st degree assault), no further information.
Given the nature of the criminal record, the gang signs and attire, and the cigar thing, doesn't sound too much like an innocent "kid" to me, and a pretty good indication that he most likely DID assault the officer. In Missouri, fear of either death OR great bodily injury to self or others can justify the use of lethal force to prevent such. Sounds to me like he very unwisely copied Trayvon Martin by taking his fists to a gun fight, with a police officer no less.
Elwood,
I don't see the links.
Where are the videos of the witnesses? If there were that many witnesses, in this day and age would have dozens (if not more) videos available.
I guess photoshop is too busy right now.
