I want to know, and so should you, is how a cop in a police car got his left arm around the neck of a 6'4" Big Mike while the cop was still in his seat? I'll tell you how. Big Mike stuck his head through the window going for the cop. The lying sack of shit and his script writers were too fucking stupid to figure out that you can't just reach out the window of a car and grab a man that tall around the neck.
The cop was not in a car but an SUV I believe so grabbing the collar of his shirt wouldn't be that difficult.
The cop's car may look like an SUV, but it's no taller than a regular car. And the lying sack of shit didn't say that the cop grabbed Big Mike's shirt collar, he said the cop grabbed Big Mike around the neck with his left arm while the cop was sitting in his car.
Then according to the lying sack of shit Big Mike was running away and the cop shot Big Mike in the back. Good story, but according to Baden's autopsy Big Mike wasn't shot in the back.
It seems plausible that he was struck from behind in the arm based upon the location of the bullets. He certainly wasn't running with his hands down and palms forward. I believe Baden's assistant said as much.
Its also plausible that he was shot with his arms up either surrendering or perhaps trying to use them to shield bullets if he were charging. But they aren't locations you would expect to find on someone hit in front who was running in a typical running form.
Really! Running in a typical form involves pumping the arms. Try it. Where the assistant points to his own arm is consistent with a running towards you posture rather than a running away from you posture. Also a head down charging posture is consistent with the shot that hit the eyebrow, deflected out the eye socket, went through the chin, and into the chest. Just as the shot to the top of the head is consistent with a head down charging posture.
I think my plausibles are better than yours.
Seen ten minutes earlier pushing around and threatening a shop clerk and walking out of a store without paying for the cigars he was stealing was just minding his own business when a cop decided to shoot him for no other reason than that he was black. Give me a fucking break.
Here's a scenario for you. Big Mike and his pal are walking down the middle of the road blocking traffic. The cop pulls up and tells them to get out of the road. They tell the cop to fuck off. The cop opens the door of the police car. Big Mike slams it on the cop and goes for the cop through the window. The cop gets his arm around Big Mike's neck, pulls his gun, and shoots Big Mike in the arm. Big Mike backs off out of the car. The cop gets out of the car and 6'4" 300 lb Big Mike is still belligerent, not backing off, so the cop empties his revolver into poor innocent unarmed 6'4" 300 lb Big Mike.Mike clearly had backed off since his body was found almost 15 yards from where the car was. So he had clearly ran at least that far.
Yeah, and the cop was running after him yelling, "stop," or, "freeze," and Big Mike figures out that he can't get away so comes back at the cop. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom and poor innocent unarmed 6'4" 300 lb Big Mike isn't coming back at the cop any longer.
He apparently ran quite a bit further if we believe the officers account that Brown turned and was charging at him wouldn't go down despite getting hit multiple times.
Where did the cop say that Big Mike wouldn't go down despite being hit multiple times? That's a new one for me.
So in that case Brown would seem to have sprint at least 20-25 yards away, stopped and turned around then started charging back into the gunfire towards the cop. Not saying that didn't happen but it is bizarre behavior to say the least.
How do you figure that? Who said he was charging back into gunfire? Even if, how much ground do you think a healthy
man can cover in just few seconds at full speed from a standing start? Answer: About 25 yards in three and a half seconds. Even if Big Mike was 50 yards away and came charging back it would only be three and a half seconds until he was 25 yards away. Three and a half more seconds and Big Mike would be on you. Personally I don't want 6'4" 300 lb Big Mike on me. Unarmed or not he's a lethal weapon. How many seconds would you wait? And how many of those 6 or 7 seconds would you spend trying to determine if he was down or not?
And let's not forget that Big Mike was already showing bizarre behavior by robbing a store with video cameras running and manhandling and threatening the clerk.
Are police over reacting? You tell me what you'd want your police to do if protests were turning into looting riots and arson in your town? Yeah! Your town, your street, your business. What the fuck do you want them to do?There have not been riots, arson, and looting in the town every night. In fact there was no real problems going on Wednesday until the cops showed up with their armored vehicles with snipers on top and the rest of their crew in full body armor and camo pointing rifles demanding the peaceful crowd to go home for no real reason.
Oh, excuse me. There weren't riots, arson, and looting every single night. My bad I guess. The police should have sat on their asses until their psychic could tell them when mayhem was eminent.
That's really a fucked up apologetic. There weren't riots, looting, and arson every night, only a few nights. I guess the demonstrators should have let the police know before hand when and where the riots, looting, and arson would take place so that the police could respond only at the appropriate time and place.
