Was it indisputably proven it was Brown who robbed the store? Even if the robbery had nothing to do with the stop, if he committed the crime, I can't see myself supporting these protests any longer. If his guilt is true, I will take his death as karmic retribution and leave it at that. I share no sympathy for those who coerce and bully their will onto others like the robber of that store did.
If any of you want the unedited version of the aftermath of the shooting (which I believe shows Brown's body), PM me.
I am not posting it in here. I have not watched the video, myself, but it does appear to have the "eye-witness" account of Brown coming back towards the officer.

I am not condemning him for the theft (I used to shoplift on occasions). I am condemning him for the jerkass way he strongarmed his way out of the store. As I said before, coercing one's will onto others is intolerable to me.
EDIT: Also, when I shoplifted, it was to get dinner food because we were poor; Brown (if that is him) strongarmed the store clerk for a blunt for weed that he could have easily paid for if he had money to get weed.
Mindset story is changing by the day, first he said the robbery had nothing to do with the shooting. Now he says the robbery didn't warrant being shot. He really can't keep his story straight.

He said it's karma that he got killed; I'm saying stealing ~10 dollars worth of items should not mean you should die, karma or otherwise. Please be stupid somewhere else. The cop didn't shoot him because he was responding to the robbery, because he wasn't.
You're an idiot. All he did was shove a guy, that does not mean you deserve to die.
