In all of the government's pleas for peace and calm
after the questionable grand jury verdict in Ferguson, Missouri,
that moved not to indict police officer, Darren Wilson, in the
shooting death of teen Mike Brown, no one bothered to tell him not
to go on television and inflame the situation with his callous
words. Wilson did a cocky interview where he stated he would do the
same thing again in killing Brown, whom he labeled a "demon." Wilson
showed a complete lack of remorse in Brown's murder. He made the
situation that much worse. Wilson has now resigned and will receive
no severance pay according to the local mayor.
Darren Wilson
Well respected forensic pathologist, Michael Baden
concluded, six shots was excessive in subduing an alleged aggressor.
To this day we don't truly know what happened or what was said that
led to the confrontation between Wilson and Brown because people can
say anything they want to when the primary witness is dead.
Mike Brown
However, we do know this in looking at the facts -
an unarmed teenager was shot 6 TIMES and that is excessive force and
police brutality. This was and is deserving of a prison sentence.
Wilson did not have to kill Brown. Wilson did not have to shoot him
that many times. It was not an accident. It was a deliberate
execution under a hail of bullets that need not be repeated again.
For every decent cop who does their job well, Wilson has made it
that much harder for them and damaged race relations as well. Worst
of all, a family has lost their son.
