It has now been confirmed that the police officer suffered an orbital blowout fracture of his eye socket during the scuffle with Michael Brown, gentle giant my a$$.  I guess that explains why he had to shoot so many times, he couldn't see very well. 

I just want to know where all these protesters and parents were when these kids first started going down the wrong path in life.

Smokin crack!

It is 'reported via unnamed sources'... Not confirmed yet.. tho I have no doubt it is true.. along with that also comes a report via the same sources that at least 12 witnesses give the same account as the cop.

They let this go too far. I remember when they had the riots in Chicago in the late 1960's and when Mayor Daley finally said if you loot we shoot and all the BS ended.

Al Sharpton needs to be arrested for inciting a riot.

Itsme - 2014-08-18 1:13 AM Both sides are jackasses, imagine being stopped by police all the time for little to no reason, im sure I would be doing more than looting.

Really...........why didn't they just move out of the street......like they were ask.......instead of having a attitude....that attitude was displayed in the store when he stole the cigars and shoved that store owner...........which is what got this boy killed the thug attitude..........

NJJ - 2014-08-18 4:58 PM My thoughts are that the National Guard should have been called in after the first night of looting and stationed on the roof tops. They should have made it known....If you loot......WE SHOOT !!!!!  I don't care what color you are......I feel bad for the honest hardworking shop owners that are taking the brunt of this fiasco.

Think of the cost of insurance now to start up a business in that area...........listening to talk radio many blacks consider the looting their justice...................

Well if you stop and think about it.... This man had no way of knowing the cop didn't know about what he had just done in the store.. I saw somewhere he did still have the cigars in his hand... You have to wonder what was going through his head at the time..

komet. - 2014-08-19 5:09 AM I was looking at the autopsy report and had another thought... We know Brown's friend lied about the shot in the back.... Well he also said Brown had his hands in the air when the cop shot him... Yet he was shot 4 times in the right arm... Does anyone really think the cop was shooting at the arm raised in the air?

A friend of mine made a observation.........to the gunshot wounds to the arm was they were not kill shots but when he did not stop his charge the shots to the head were fired.........

Well... My observation was if he had his hands in the air as witnesses said... why was the cop shooting at raised arms.... Then the thought hit me that many of the shots to the arm went through into the body.... Hard to do if the arms were up.. The problem is both of the head shots came in from the top of the head.... So either he was charging head down at the cop... or the cop shot him twice when he was on the ground.. Trajectory on the one that went in the eye and came out and went into the collarbone could be damming..

 He's a bully. Because of his size, he thought that he could strong arm anyone and get his way. That's why he pushed the clerk around and punched the officer. They should taser lock up the rioters and keep them till they work off bail money, from day one. They have a lot of cleaning to do in ferguson that they caused and innocents will have to clean up...they should be forced to do it. Pay to play so to speak. There's no consequences so why not tear up someone else's property. The business owners and employees aren't bringing home a check because of these thieves. Keep the people pissed off and angry and the mob mentality rules. Meanwhile, our American journalist is beheaded and our Pastor  Saeed is threatened by ISIS and obummer can't be bothered to quit inciting hatred to save them.

 I agree, my husband and I kept saying the video of him in the convenience store IS relevant because it speaks to the state of mind of Michael Brown.  I understand the anger if this was not a justified shooting but we do not know that. I do not understand the lack of anger for black on black murder.  I didn't  know some murders are worse than others, silly me, I thought all murders are horrific no matter what the reason, whether it is hate, race, etc. 


On a side note, bravo to the residents of Ferguson who volunteer each morning to clean up after the looters.   A huge round of applause for booing and running Jesse Jackson out after the race baiting scumbag starting asking for donations when done with his speech.

I've got a different theory on the arm shots.

The most common miss when shooting is low and to the left.  It's commonly referred to as a "flinch" or "pull".  It's caused by jerking the trigger when trying to shoot too fast or anticipating recoil.  It's also very common over-pull when adreniline is flowing through your body under stress.

Insurance doesn't cover damage done by riots. I doubt the business owners will see any money and is why some have said on TV that they are out of business. Sad. It's seems that in Obama's new world it's the innocent people that get hurt.

Seems like the officer wasn't aiming to kill..He was aiming to stop him which is evident that didn't work very well as they said the last shots were to the head. The officer also had to be disorientated by the hard blow to his eye. I guess all of this will come out in the trial. Once again the bad guy is the victim and the good guy is the bad guy in Obamaland. Holder hates cops and white people so he will charge him with something.

I guess this depends on if you are shooting right or left handed... I pull low and to my right which would have put the rounds to HIS left side.. and I shoot right handed..

Prolly because I don't have a right eye... so I take a left handed stance to aim with the left eye while still holding it in a double handed right handed hold... I know it sounds odd but that's the way I do best..

I wonder if that has to with eye dominance. I'm right handed/left eye dominant, which is not fun shooting a rifle/shotgun bigger than a .22. I'm not aware of it affecting my handgun patterns, but I'm not really into that stuff.

LOL Komet.  You are unique.  That makes sense but that's a sight alignment issue.... much different from the common "flinch".
