Do you remember when you were wailing about "thirty-five feet" and "shot in the back while fleeing?" I do.

In addition, the eyewitness testimony -- which I indicated from jump is typically woefully inaccurate -- that you've been using as the pillar for most of your apologism is being summarily negated as evidence is released.

1. The kid was a robber.
2. He felt entitled to his actions.
3. He didn't like being stopped.
4. He caused his own death.

That's what this distills to.
One more time.

Nothing in this autopsy report can be used to refute the eyewitness testimony that Brown was shot from a distance of approximately 15 feet after he had stopped, faced the officer and put his hands up.

I know.

Just taking a break with a little comic relief.

I swear some of these people here have got their sphincters wound tighter than the strings on a thousand dollar Tennis Racquet.

Zeke's one of them.

I'll the the poor guy hasn't had a bowel movement since this whole thing started.

Not me.

Not having to consistently re-write my story to match developing evidence is quite peaceful.

I think they need Tom Joad on their team. He already knows exactly how things went down without having to resort to stupid stuff like evidence.

We have hearsay about the officer's statements, which may or may not be truthful. And we have video of Brown lying dead in the street, so we know he was shot dead in the street.

That has to be justified. If the evidence does not, when we have it, slam-dunk do that, there should be a prosecution, and a jury should decide,
Like instant replay there has to be clear evidence to contradict the call on the field. [EDIT] I see what you be sayin'. It may indeed./edit

It's just an inconvenient fact for those who want to paint Brown as being pure as the driven snow.
Agreed.
