Ferguson, MO Riots, Looting and the Media Games They Play
I will not defend the new St. Louis riots and criminal looting actions of the opportunists who ransacked an auto supply store, a beauty salon, a shoe store or a convenience store following a peaceful candlelight vigil for Mike Brown shooting, but I'm more concerned with the violence that caused the death of this teenager who was slated to start college today, but instead his parents are coming to grips with making funeral arrangements.
Ferguson Police Execute Unarmed Teen Michael Brown? #Ferguson #FergusonShooting
Witnesses say 18 year old Michael Brown has his hands raised above his head when a Ferguson County Police Officer shot him multiple times. Witnesses tell a vastly different story than the authorities.
Story this morning a local 18 year old was shot and killed by police in Ferguson Family members joined by protesters are demanding answers, Brittany Noble is live at Ferguson headquarters where officers have indicated they could release more information later today, Brittany?
The Ferguson police chief plans to hold a news conference today. Now, it's unclear if that's going to happen because the chief is waiting for confirmation from St. Louis County police. County police are handling this investigation Ferguson confirms they shot and killed a suspect according to Mike Browns mother that suspect is her 18 year old son.
They were walking on this street when a Ferguson Police Officer from his vehicle told the boys to get out of the street. Johnson says they kept walking causing the officer to confront the boys.
First from his car, then got out of his car firing a shot. Johnson says him and Brown were scared and ran away from the officer. He shot again and once my friend felt that shot he turned around and put his hands in the air and he started to get down, but the officer still approached with his weapon drawn and fired several more shots. No Justice. No Peace.
They want us to believe that this young man tried to fight this officer and take his gun. That's standard operating procedures for killing a dude on the street. Can we kill a dude on the street? Yeah, just say he tried to take your gun. You can kill em. That's standard operating procedures.
Where you guys been? You don't know that's a standard talking
points for killing your sons. He tried to take my gun. I was scared of him....I don't believe it!
Let me tell you something folks. We got smartphone footage of the event I want to know what happened because it sounds to me if what Mr. Johnson says is true ....They executed this young man
EXECUTED HIM! If it's true. I don't know if it's true or not. We need to find out don't we? and if we find out, if we get any footage that proves that this officer stood over this young man....Because this young man didn't have a weapon. We know that! If we find out that this officer shot this young man while he had his hands up and continued shooting this young man ...I want him off the force.
No, No, No....I don't just want him off the force. I want him in jail! MURDER! That's what we need. That's what we going to demand. See you aren't doing us a favor giving us that. That's what we're going to demand as the public. See that's my goal. That's my goal: to bring all of us together. Galvanize everyone. All colors of people. All backgrounds. All levels. Together! Common goal. I don't want just one type of audience. I want everybody because we're going to be behind truth. That's what's going to unite us and what are we fighting for? Justice! And what we fighting for our? Get our government back!and what we fighting for? Safety! and what we fighting for? Our children! and what we fighting for?
Our future! and what we fight for? Our FREEDOM!
So, I want to give the officers an opportunity to further investigate they've turned this over to the St. Louis Police Department for them to do an Independent Investigation. The NAACP will also be conducting an investigation. I would like for Eric Holder to get off his ass and have an investigation done from the Feds. It's cute how they're out there with militarized vehicles the type of vehicles we need in Afghanistan not in our own communities. It's funny how they got dogs they're ready for a ready for a riot and you want to tell me that's just because this kid wanted to wrestle with the cops?
Now, I know people like to say that some of our less wealthy individuals...what did Romney say...the ...79, what percentage of that was it? 81 percent? I don't know. It was a large percent of us who don't have money and means to that extent and they like to say we're stupid. Let me tell you something not many people are so stupid that they would get up in arms, burn up shit over nothing. I think they saw something. I think they saw that young man get shot down. I want to know what's the deal.

If it turns out that his officer executed this young man. Yeah....Do I really need to say anything else?
Why has the media shifted focus from the killing of an unarmed teenager, Mike Brown to the actions of a few knuckleheads?<iframe width="853" height="480" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/_hLjpnDVF0w" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
