Some have commented that I have been all over the road regarding the #Ferguson protests and riots. This situation has multiple moving parts that arent exclusive to one another. First: I believe officer Wilson is NOT a cold blooded, racist murdering cop. Jumping to that conclusion this early is unfair and truthfully I dont buy it. After hearing his version of events and then learning a bit about Mike Brown (see video) I believe he acted defensively. I also believe there is a good chance Big Mike behaved the way he did during the cigar robbery; like a criminal thug. If more evidence arises I reserve the right of any thinking man to change my position. Second: The way police handle civil unrest in 2014 America is horrifying. This is the real issue we are dealing with now. I have been very public about my concerns regarding the behavior of post 9/11 law enforcement in America. This is not a good cause. Mike Brown died because he was a bad dude. The cop may have over reached, I am willing to wait for all the evidence...but nobody is gonna convince me that Wilson is a rouge cop who went out hunting young black men...and that is very much the narrative many of you are pushing.
