I hope that this cop gets to feel the full force of the law.

Count the shots?? How many rounds does an officer cary ?? Attorney: New audio reveals pause in gunfire when Michael Brown was shot (CNN) -- Could a newly released audio provide more clues on what led up to Michael Brown's shooting death? The FBI has questioned a man who says he recorded audio of gunfire at the time Brown was shot by Ferguson, Missouri, police on August 9, the man's attorney told CNN. http://www.cnn.com/2014/08/26/us/michael-brown-ferguson-shooting/index.html?hpt=hp_c2 |

Count the shots?? How many rounds does an officer cary ?? It depends on the service weapon in use at the time of the shooting. For example the Sig Sauer p-226 can hold either a 10 or 15 round magazine. I do need to stress that we don't know the brand/model of Officer Wilson's service piece. I don't buy computers, I build them!! |

Count the shots?? How many rounds does an officer cary ?? Thanks Cliff. The answer about Officer Wilson, brand/model will be a long wait. |

John Crawford III attorney said video shows that cops shot him "on sight" at the Beavercreek Walmart. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/08/27/john-crawford-killed-walm_n_5721676.html [edit] It's 12:26 Philly time and just saw Jon Stewart's take on the Michael Brown shooting. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/08/27/jon-stewart-ferguson_n_5720622.html. Priceless!!! [/edit] I don't buy computers, I build them!! |

The 'pause' confirms one of the few details initially released. That the Officer fired, Brown kept charging, and the Officer fired again. Where did you get the "charging" from ? All the reports I have seen say that Brown was running away from the officer. T.A. |

The 'pause' confirms one of the few details initially released. That the Officer fired, Brown kept charging, and the Officer fired again. So he was running away backwards? He was shot in the front. |

All of the confirmed shots were to the front. There are two grazes, one on the hand and the other on the arm, that could have happened from either direction. either of them would have cause Michael to turn around and hold up his hands as several witnesses have stated.

I can see now why Americans need guns. Insanity is the perfect word for it. Cheers. |

The American 2nd Amendment is about the Individual Person having the right, and means, to defending herself, if necessary, before any Government Law Enforcement Agency can arrive. And 'Groups' of Individuals defending themselves FROM the Government. It does not include the context of your post. So does that mean that mean that the protesters in Ferguson have the constitutional right to not only carry AR-15's but also use them to attack the police whenever they are trying to stop their peaceful protest? Yeah, that would end well... |

First time this has ever happened in the series "Cops'. Makes me think of Brandon Lee, who got shot while making the movie 'The Crow' COPS’ TV show sound man killed in police shooting – Listen to radio traffic rOZZ Music Pictures |

"The World-Herald has learned that at least 30 shots were fired at the Wendy’s near 43rd and Dodge Streets. Officials said it appears the only shots fired came from police." Let me guess... "They feared for their lives" |

I was going to post that story this morning, but I thought that I got under someone's skin enough for 1 day without adding more fuel to the fire, though I did think that the story would've made it here sooner or later. The news report from here, http://www.news.com.au/world/north-america/cops-shooting-cameraman-bryce-dion-and-suspect-cortez-washington-killed-in-cruel-twist/story-fnh81jut-1227039853608. But it is sad that someone who was just doing his job behind a camera loses his life. :-( |

Idiot. If you rob a place with an airsoft gun and start waving that around when cops arrive then yeah, you are basically asking to get shot. Those airsoft guns are nearly indistinguishable from real guns at a distance. |

What has your post got to do with someone adding their condolences to the Cameraman that lost his life comment? & to call them an idiot? |

Those airsoft guns are nearly indistinguishable from real guns at a distance. My apologies. The idiot comment was not directed at any posters here, but at the guy that caused the shootout. I thought that was clear but apparently not. |

That's why it's best to read thoroughly before replying. I see your point so that post would have been best to "post to thread" rather than replying to a specific post. Interesting "One company sells weapons specifically for children. Crickett Firearm's "My First Rifle" has less firepower than many adult versions and is designed to fit smaller hands." Whatever next? Stick a gun in the baby's hands as soon as it's born & having it smile for the camera? |
