The Ferguson Collapse


Source: Darren Wilson says Michael Brown kept charging at him  ... "Wilson said he had yelled for Brown to stop, then fired, the source said. Brown flinched as if he was hit, and Wilson said he had stopped shooting. Brown continued running toward him, and Wilson said he had fired several more shots. The source said that Wilson had recalled that Brown’s head was down when the last shot hit him there." ...

Evidence discredits the progressive narrative.   Will Al Sharpton continue to be employed by MSNBC?

 
... "But that story has all but collapsed. Darren Wilson, the police officer who fatally shot 18-year-old Brown in early August, recently told investigators that he was pinned in his vehicle and feared for his life when Brown reached for his gun. FBI forensic analysis has confirmed that, as Wilson claims, two shots were fired in the car, and Brown’s blood was found in the vehicle, on Wilson’s clothing, and on the gun. The Washington Post reports that “seven or eight African American eyewitnesses have provided testimony consistent with Wilson’s account” that he fatally shot Brown when the young man moved toward him in the street. And, according to the official court autopsy report, Brown probably did not have his hands raised in the “Hands up, don’t shoot” position that has become the defining meme of the protests in Ferguson, Mo. An eyewitness who claims to have seen the shooting from beginning to end further corroborated Wilson’s account in an anonymous interview with the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
...
"Unfortunately, racial demagoguery, too, is pretty normal in America."
 
Is ACORN behind violent unrest in Ferguson?  ... "Activists are blackmailing the grand jury that is now hearing evidence against police officer Darren Wilson, who shot Brown in August reportedly in self-defense.  If the grand jurors refuse to indict Wilson, radical activists are promising even more mayhem.
"The message is unmistakable: indict the cop, and there will be peace.  Don't, and Ferguson will burn." ...

Race Hoaxes: Demoralizing For Blacks And A Calumny On Whites

... "But the reports were not accurate, and we had reason to doubt them as soon as the video of the convenience store robbery emerged. The theft and rough shoving of the owner didn’t look very gentle. The small cigars Brown stole are often filled with pot."
...
"So it’s heartbreaking to watch the kabuki theater play out yet again and to know that thousands, maybe millions, of American blacks are being deceived into believing that an 18-year-old who showed really bad judgment in attacking a police officer is a civil rights hero, and that young black males minding their own business on city streets are in danger of being shot by police for fun. It’s demoralizing for blacks and a calumny on whites."
 
Where are the angry demonstrations in support of the businesses that were looted and burned?
