Not releasing information as it is confirmed makes people suspicious that they're waiting to find out what's gonna be on the table when this mess goes to court so they can make up the best story that fits all of the facts. Innocent people don't do that. I agree 100% that the officials should have released most of the information they had in the first day or two. But it's hard to see how withholding the vidoe tape of Brown committing a robbery and assaulting a clerk 10 mins before fits your rational of "innocent people don't do that". There was nothing they could or had to fit to that. Why exactly they didn't put it out right away, IDK. But I suspect political correctness and fear of the likes of Sharpton is a factor. The Mayor of Ferguson has publicly stated that the case is in the hands of St Louis County? And federal agents. IOW, The Ferguson PD is not the investigators; nor do they have or nor can they release information they are not privy to. Not being sure who was specifically in charge and when is why I said "officials". All I'm saying is that whoever decided not to release the basic info, like the fact that the two perps are suspects in that convenience store robbery 10 mins prior, show the video tape, say that the cop was being treated at the hospital for facial injuries, etc, that IMO was a major mistake. Nothing there that's secret. If it were some specific details of a crime scene, that only the perp would know, ie that they used a belt to strangle a murder victim, then I agree with what you're saying. But I see no reason they couldn't have released the above in the first day or two, when there was no Holder involved, etc. |

Aside, Holder and company have a big hill to climb with a Civil Rights violation - they have to prove the violation was "intentional", meant to deprive Brown of his fundamental rights. "...Graham v. Connor case became the foundational test for whether Wilson’s response was appropriate or criminal." What is reasonable to you or I is not the test. The test is what Ofc. Wilson believed was reasonable and prudent at the time of the shooting. The GJ has to consider this, too. _Supreme Court case to shape Ferguson investigation_ http://www.stltoday.com/news/national/supreme-court-case-to-shape-ferguson-investigation/article_2d4f15d1-f56a-57cc-9990-631cc1697e60.html https://tinyurl.com/nrxrmrc |

Quote:
If you were exposed to airborne asbestos fibers in 1981, that could indeed cause you to come down with mesothelioma in 2014. Some diseases incubate within the body for that long before they rear their ugly heads and make a person sick. Obviously it's hard to establish a cause and effect link between exposure to airborne asbestos fibers and lung cancer over thirty something years, but that's what scientists are discovering about asbestos exposure. Regarding the super long incubation time of asbestos related lung diseases, we're finding out that the more we study things like that, the more we find out that our previous assumptions about them were completely wrong. And that's true of a lot of things, not just mesothelioma. If James Brady never really recovered from being shot in 1981, and died in 2014, then there's a direct link between his having been shot in 1981 and his death in 2014. If it's reasonable to say that James Brady would have lived longer had he not been shot, then it's reasonable to attribute his death largely to his having been shot. |

I can't imagine him being charged in another criminal indictment this many years later. I'm thinking that is double jeopardy. Is he charged with a Civil Right's Violation? Maybe Mr. Brady died from complications of his injuries sustained in the shooting. Apparently the Medical Examiner has declared that, connecting it (gun shot) and determining it a homicide (manner of death). Do you have a link that Hinkley sp has in fact been charged? I'd love to read about it. |

Thanks for letting me help you. yes but you said he was confined in the nut house in Washington, so I naturally assumed you were talking about congress. Heh, I got it. Oren must be a little slow today Regarding Hinckly, the prosecutors did say they are looking into it. That's routine and they can increase the charges, even years later, if the circumstances change. If someone is convicted of aggravated assualt, for example, and 5 years later, the victim dies as a result of the injuries sustained, then they can charge the perp with murder. In the case of Hinckly, I'd be surprised if they did anything, It's been 30 years, he was found innocent by reason of insanity and it seems unlikely the jury would have reached a different conclusion if the charges had included murder. Nor would his confinement in the nut house been any longer either. They held him until they think he's no longer totally nuts, not based on what he was charged with. |

"The nut house in Washinton" is a very ambiguous term.
It could mean any number of U. S. Government departments and agencies. ...or even the Canadian Embassy. Last edited by nestork : August 23rd 14 at 09:34 PM |

The first smack I gave you - the fracture - was your learning curve. That should have cured your ignorance.g Why is it that every idiot that wants to play Monday Morning QB regarding a situation that they probably have never been in, hopefully never will be in, and don't have the first clue... always expect the police to play by Marquis of Queensbury rules? You come at a cop with fists, he can use a club or better. You bring a club, bottle, knife he brings out - at a minimum a taser if it's just a knife of club, but a gun is perfectly fine by the "real life" rules. If he brings a knife into play and approaches the 7 yard line, he should be shot before he can cross it. Certainly there are exceptions but this idea of "Well, he ONLY hit him with his fists, the cop didn't have to beat him with a stick. He should have fought him and kicked him in the nuts and then beat hims soft..." is bull****. |

Quote:
"Are we gonna go through this every time a white cop shoots a black person?" There are hundreds of thousands of white police officers in the USA, and millions of blacks. It's a statistical certainty that there are going to be conflicts between white police officers and black people, some of which are going to result in shootings, and some of those shootings are going to result in deaths. And, those statistics don't account for the fact that both black kids and white kids shoot avatars in video games all evening long, thereby training their muscle memory to pull the trigger when their target is in their sights. At what point do we stop calling this racism and accept the fact that with so many white cops and black people, a white cop shooting a black person is a statistical certainty; just as a black cop shooting a white person. It's not reasonable to have a whole town go nutz with rioting and looting every time it happens. Why don't Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton take a course in statistics so they can clamber onto their rooftops and proclaim in a loud voice for all to hear: "Don't get all tied up in knots. This was bound to happen eventually." But, that wouldn't suit Al or Jesse's agenda. It's racism in America that pays their bills and allows them to charge 5 figures to simply give a speach, usually about racism in America. And, that advice would fall on deaf ears anyway. The rioters and looters are not expressing their rage at race relations in the USA. They know darn well that what they're doing does more harm than good when it comes to race relations. They are opportunists that simply want to smash stuff, set fire to stuff and steal stuff. Race relations are the last thing on their mind when they're breaking the window of a liquor store or setting fire to a cop car. So, I ask again, are we going to go through these "pretend racism riots" and "pretend racism looting" every time a white cop shoots a black person?

Sure, as long as there are race baiting, riot inciting liars like Al Sharpton around and there are enough dumb people that follow him. There are hundreds of thousands of white police officers in the USA, and millions of blacks. It's a statistical certainty that there are going to be conflicts between white police officers and black people, some of which are going to result in shootings, and some of those shootings are going to result in deaths. There were 12 million arrests in the USA in 2012. In 400 incidents, police shot and killed someone. That's a total, including the ones that were fully justified, eg the perp was shooting at the cops. So, it'r reasonable to assume that a small number of that 400 were questionable and an even smaller number were unjustified. And those are people of all race, so even less are black. You're left with a few cases out of 12 million where the police actually shoot someone black without justification. And keep in mind, that 12 million is arrests, it's not counting the number of traffic stops, etc where police routinely come in contact with people of all color. Yet, MSNBC has a talking head on, talking about the Brown shooting, saying there is a "war on black men and black boys in America." Good grief. If you want to see what could be called a war, look at black on black violence. And, those statistics don't account for the fact that both black kids and white kids shoot avatars in video games all evening long, thereby training their muscle memory to pull the trigger when their target is in their sights. At what point do we stop calling this racism and accept the fact that with so many white cops and black people, a white cop shooting a black person is a statistical certainty; just as a black cop shooting a white person. You'd have to ask the usual race hustlers that question. It's not reasonable to have a whole town go nutz with rioting and looting every time it happens. Fortunately the looting, rioting, burning don't happen every time. It's actually the exception. Why don't Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton take a course in statistics so they can clamber onto their rooftops and proclaim in a loud voice for all to hear: "Don't get all tied up in knots. This was bound to happen eventually." Because then they wouldn't be able to command the attention, the fear, and of course collect all the money that pours into their organizations. But, that wouldn't suit Al or Jesse's agenda. It's racism in America that pays their bills and allows them to charge 5 figures to simply give a speach, usually about racism in America. And, that advice would fall on deaf ears anyway. The rioters and looters are not expressing their rage at race relations in the USA. They know darn well that what they're doing does more harm than good when it comes to race relations. They are opportunists that simply want to smash stuff, set fire to stuff and steal stuff. Race relations are the last thing on their mind when they're breaking the window of a liquor store or setting fire to a cop car. Yep. I find it hard to believe that the guy from out of town who's grabbing a bottle of Jack Daniels in a liqour store looting really is thinking about Brown and race relations. In fact, what they are doing is giving people exactly the opposite view of blacks that they should be giving. On TV the reporter was interviewing 3 young blacks sitting on the curb. One is complaining about the lack of Walmarts and gas stations in the black neighborhood. The stores the blacks just burned down are still smoldering, and they wonder why nobody is building more stores? So, I ask again, are we going to go through these "pretend racism riots" and "pretend racism looting" every time a white cop shoots a black person? Of course. As far as pretending, another data point. I saw Brown's parents interviewed on TV. They are saying what a great, sweet kid he was, his father is saying how he taught him to be respectful of the police, etc. The reporter, to his credit, asked if they had looked at the video that shows Brown robbing the convenience store 10 mins before the incident. The answer: No. Now, if you want to grieve and can't bare to look at it, that's fine with me. But what I won't tolerate is smearing the cop, making all kinds of accusations, saying your kid was an angel, getting crowds all worked up with what you claim and refusing to look at the video. That is totally unethical and makes you scum bags, IMO. |

Until the likes of Al Charlatan and Jessie Jackson start looking at the real problem -- CRIME by blacks. Ever her one of them mention crime -- black on black? Nope, because the race ticket puts beans on their plates. |

I don't know the MO law though. Actually, it MIGHT justify use of deadly force, but nothing is carved in stone. Assault(threat) is not as serious as Battery (actual striking). A slap in the face from a bitchy female traffic violator is felony. Hardly warrants an automatic death penalty, does it? OTOH, if she decides to shove her car in reverse rather than slap, she's pretty well bought and paid for and if she dies, she dies. You have to know what the law is and, more importantly, BE THERE to view the situation from the officer's perspective. Idiots like Davej, if they acknowledge that maybe the officer had the right to at least draw his weapon, he should have only shot to wound. One shoots to remove or terminate the threat to one's life. If the first shot stops him cold, you can stop. If it doesn't stop him right there, you continue to fire until he does or you're out of ammunition. |

Apparently it isn't the first time the question has come up. The charge in the original trial wasn't homicide because the victim wasn't dead yet. Years later when the victim dies, they can try again. Going from 'a year and a day' to 'forever' might not be the best court decision. http://www.odmp.org/officer/20269-po...ert-bob-heinle is a local instance that came to my attention yesterday. There is a memorial for the fallen officers in a local park and I was surprised to see him on it with the date of his death in 2010. He had no pulse and wasn't breathing at the scene, but was revived. Martin killed him that day even though it took him 11 years to die. One difference is Martin is doing life with no parole, not spending most of his time at his parent's house on unsupervised release. It will be an interesting trial if they decide to go forward with it. |

Glad we got that cleared up. |
