So you want to erase over 300 years of history huh?
Wanna go ahead and forget about the Nazis and the Holocaust while you're at it?

It's an observation of our history with the "others" of minimal distinction, Not a comparison to the wretched practice of kidnapping people to subjugate and degrade them to aggregate wealth with their labors.

Yes, blacks really had it bad back in the days of slavery.
Just look at this old photo.
Oh, wait!
That one was taken in 1967,
My bad.

Apparently there is some disagreement regarding the interpretation of the recent autopsy report.

Representatives for Brown's family said the results of of the preliminary autopsy support witness accounts that Brown was trying to surrender when he was shot.
"Why would he be shot in the very top of his head? A 6'4" man," one of the family's lawyers said. "Makes no sense.

What's your point?
How is it pertinent to this case?

Nope. I guess it's just too much to expect a little balance and reason from you in your persistently convenient and often hysterical anti-copper outrage. And I suspect I'm not any more enamored of police and prosecutorial behavior than you are.

Yep, so if the results don't get anymore conclusive than that it will come down to the eyewitness accounts.

Pure speculation on my part, could the shot to the head have happened while Brown was falling, perhaps as a result of the shot to the neck/collarbone? Until the investigation is complete we will only be able to guess. Guesses are a dime a dozen. Pat is right, let's wait.
