- A white police officer who shot and killed an unarmed black teenager in Missouri in August told investigators he was in fear for his life after the young man grabbed at his gun, which was discharged twice in his patrol car, the New York Times
Government officials briefed on a federal civil rights probe into the Aug. 9 killing of Michael Brown by Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson told the Times that Wilson had said he was pinned in his car and punched and scratched by Brown in the moments before the shooting.
The government officials, who were not identified in the Times report, said forensic evidence collected from the patrol car indicate Wilson's gun was fired twice, with one bullet striking Brown in the arm. The other missed, according to the Times report, published late Friday.
Reuters could not independently confirm the report, and could not immediately reach officials of the Department of Justice for comment.
Brown's blood was found on the gun, the interior door panel and the officer's uniform, the newspaper said.
This is a Tribune report about what appeared in the New York Times.
No True Bill is on the way. And then the media can cover the riots and burnings that they helped lay the groundwork for and wonder why in Obama's "post-racial" America, how such a thing could happen.
Hopefully, we aren't seeing blow-back across the country.

Report: Michael Brown's blood found on Officer Darren Wilson's gun, car door
updated 2:24 PM EDT, Sat October 18, 2014
"(CNN) -- Forensic tests have found the blood of Michael Brown on the gun, uniform and police cruiser belonging to Officer Darren Wilson, who fatally shot the unarmed teen two months ago in Ferguson, Missouri, The New York Times reported.
The revelation, provided by unnamed government officials familiar with a federal civil rights investigation, marked the first public account of Wilson's testimony to investigators, but it immediately drew suspicion and anger from leading activists who portended an ominous reaction from Brown supporters.
"Wilson told investigators he was trying to leave his car when Brown shoved him back in, the Times reported Friday night.
"Once in, Brown pinned him in his car and tried to get his gun, which made him fear for his safety, the newspaper reported, citing unnamed government officials familiar with the federal civil rights case.
"The officer told authorities that Brown hit him and scratched him repeatedly, leaving bruises on his face and neck, according to The Times.
"Gun fired twice in car
"FBI forensic tests showed the gun was fired twice in the car, with one bullet hitting Brown's arm while the second one missed, the newspaper said.
"In addition to Wilson's uniform and gun, forensic tests found the teen's blood on the interior door panel of his car, The Times said."

Waiting for cold snowy day to announce. Well as cold as it gets in St. Louis that is.
The truth just knocked a couple of zer0s off the
GHETTO LOTTERY TICKET.
You can count on blow back. Watch yourself and your partners, if your lucky to have one
Back in the day, I used to be a pro wrestling fan. There was a wrestler named Bad News Brown (RIP). I think that's an appropriate nickname for one Michael Brown. The good news is that Darren Wilson put Bad News Brown out of action....permanently. As far as I know, the pro wrestler, Bad News Brown, was a law abiding citizen, so I take no pleasure in his death. On the other hand, good riddance to Michael "Bad news"
Brown of Ferguson, Missouri.
Everyone has been saying this "new info" just made the case that much more difficult - This info isn't new though. We've always known (or everyone stated) there was a struggle in the car & 2 shots or so were fired.
Good to finally hear both sides now.
yeah right, this is going to pop off hotter than rodney king. They have been priming it for 2 months now.
It was reported they will not release the Grand Jury decision for another 60 days. I guess they thought that October would be along enough time and cool enough weather to quiet the mobs. It isn't. Protests are still happening. They should hope for a blizzard to release the no-bill decision.
I hope the businesses in their area are topping off their business continuity insurance.
If there are riots and violence, how many cities will have sympathy riots?
Will Chicago?
Leave this man alone already. I am sure this incident has played through his mind over and over and over again. He is second-guessing his actions by now and thinking maybe he could have done something different.
He did the right thing. Leave him alone as this incident will probably never get any better in his mind. Talk about PTSD.
This "kid" was no kid, he was a Lineman-sized thug with an attitude and was probably high. Where is the drug report on him?
He got what he deserved - end of story.
Things could have gone the other way and no one would have even heard about the incident.
And Holder steps down just in time.
"Hopefully, we aren't seeing blow-back across the country."
I second this thought, however...
those having nothing to do, and all day to do it, will once again yield the predicted results.
We all got just a little taste of this blow-back post-election 2008 - and again in 2012 - when certain demographic(s) "celebrated" by battering, bricking and bottling the po-leese. "Dats riiight... we own y'all asses now! We gots one of us in the muthafuckin' White House!" was probably my favorite taunt that night. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention all the jukin' and booty-poppin' that accompanied and perfectly complimented these displays of ignorance.
Just think... that's how these "people" reacted to something [debatable] positive. Imagine what's in store when they're told what "No True Bill" means.
The race-baiting fuel provided by the likes of the POTUS, Eric Holder, Jesse Jackson, Ferguson PD Captain Ron Johnson, clueless liberals everywhere and a criminally-complicit-by-omission-of-facts MSM will be all the justification the usual suspects need nationwide to do their 'thang'.
This powder keg has the potential to make the Rodney King Riots look like child's play.
Time will tell.
Roving groups of black men are targeting U of I students and beating the shit out of them for no other reason than the targets are white and the men doing the beating claim retaliation for the Brown shooting.
At some point we can expect a reckoning.
Sharpton spoke out yesterday and stated that Darren Wilson lied to the Grand Jury and that the forensic evidence is not relevant.
He is returning to St. Louis on October 31 to lead 4 days of protests..

After the election; that makes sense.
Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson stop coming to Ferguson, Missouri on the news just released now they are jumping onto the EBOLA bandwagon!
If there are riots and violence, how many cities will have sympathy riots?
Will Chicago?
With Chicago being beleaguered by intense gun violence, I'm guessing that no sympathy riots will occur here. The decent people in Chicago outnumber the shit heads and they will not support criminals nor criminal behavior......
Remember Eric Holder pouting when the video tape showing the offender to be a big assed mutant instead of the "child" all of the apologists were portraying him to be?
Some silly shit a out how it wasn't "helpful" that the video was in circulation before DOJ could make it disappear while they busily prepared the hanging tree for this officer.
Well...
Holder ran like a little bitch so we'll never have that discussion he accused America of being too cowardly to have.

Well said and a vivid picture you paint. I honestly don't know how you guys do what you do day in and day out. And I've said it before but I'll say it again, some of you guys here missed your true calling, IMHO.
Lock and load, lock and load.........
Bring it
I can't wait to see how guys like Sharpton, Jackson and Crump spin this.
I want to see them riot. I want the news media put the truth out, front and center.
Maybe these savages will learn something.
Then again, maybe not.
A reckoning? That makes it sound as if Wilson did something wrong.
This is an intentional "leak". The Feds know no indictment is coming so they're releasing a few details now. Some more will follow.
No surprise thiis "leak" was done on a Saturday either. No one follows the news on saturday
Lots of entitled Black folks from da hoods are causing problems on CTA train lines, and when you challenge their nefarious activities, they like to throw the race card at Officers, as in "ya'll messing with us because we are Black"! Its more to do with you are lowlife shit bags looking for a quick payday, is the reason attention is drawn to ya'll!
Iron fist boys.
Explains Holder's retirement.
Wasn't it just last week that the Chicago school teachers union sent a bus load of demonstrators to Ferguson to join in the protest? Funny FOP is okay with that. Oh, that's right, we're all union brothers and sisters supporting each other.
What side are we on?
This is all part of the change we were promised 7 years ago. I would like to buy ya a beer but my credit card was declined. Enjoy your retro!
Being Black is NOT a crime.
However, beating and then attempting to disarm a Police Officer is.
This wasn't a kid. He was grown, makes his own decisions thug that made the choice to be a burden on society. He made the choice to rob a store and have a physical confrontation with the policeman that had to stop him. None of that is in question.
The only thing that is in question is why any segment of this society would riot in support of this criminal and why our leaders don't call them on this behavior. Is this Country so far gone that we can't even discuss and straighten out such a wrong headed mindset? Who can defend it?
You mean the kid with all the gang tattoos on his neck and face lied about everything?? I find that hard to believe.
Well, I certainly hope that our justice system does the right thing, and using all the investigative evidence in the world that will back up this officers story doesn't bend and fear that the nations black and brown folks along with all the white liberals who will just say that this was a cover up and allow this poor cop to suffer an injustice and be indicted. All the Revs will claim BULLSHIT, and all will promote violence in the name of justice, but these folks are already blinded by lies and just because this officer is white he meant to kill this thug ass. But Obama will save the day, yeah right.
To 2:40 am: Ron Johnson isn't a Ferguson PD captain, he's a Missouri Highway Patrol captain that Jay Nixon, Missouri's democrat governor, sent to the St. Louis area in an attempt to appease the animals. So, bottom line, MO's governor has helped to light the powder keg and is arguably no better than JJ Sr. or Sharpton. Keep voting democrat! See what we get?
Starbucks on 35th by HQ has been running all types of training exercises monday/friday 0730/1400.There is a minimum of 4/6 full duty polices officers inside and out enjoying a cup of coffee and running different seniorio's back and forth....
just wondering...if next of kin of dead shitheads can sue the officers and city in cases like this, why isn't an officer allowed to sue the shithead's next of kin when it's determined the shithead was at fault. Officer Wilson could certainly prove "damages" caused by the shitheads actions and those of his next of kin.
Wow. What will the race baiters say now,thug brown,who just committed a robbery,attacks an on duty- in uniform po and the po does what he's trained to do,we'll we all know what's going to happen next,be safe
Whats right is right. If thats what the evidence shows, no true bill.
If they don't like it, then bring it on. Someone has to start taking a stand.
Just more reason for them to be funnin'
More than a thug, he was an assailant, intending to disarm a police,officer, who only wanted the lard ass to get out of traffic.
No mention how the riots and protests have been a detriment to that town, over a thug.
The president of The United States of America condoned the civil disruption as did his attorney general and calls shooting an assailant wrong.
All the violence, all the damage, all the ecomonic disruption hasn't been addressed. The costs of all the police and fire everyday and night for what?
A giant dope smoking thug who had just slammed a little old man and stole cigars, goes on his reefer madness rampage down the middle of a street to bully his next victim.

Concealed carry
Last gasp of the captains of the civil rights industry ?
What's unbelievable, or should be, is that the MSM whores are still going to Mike Brown's 'accomplice' in the Strong Armed Robbery, one Dorian Johnson, for comments. And it's still printing his already proven lies as to the version of events; that Brown was running away, or he had his hands up 'surrendering'.
One thing that I'm still trying to figure out is Johnson's 'story' of the first encounter with officer Wilson, and how Wilson supposedly reached out of his car window and **Grabbed Brown By The Neck**?? I mean, really? Brown was 6'-3" and Wilson's sitting in a car. How long are Officer Wilson's arms? And what and/or how was the 6'-3" Brown standing?? That just doesn't compute, I've reached out of our Jeep's window and I couldn't do that. Oh well, screw it.
The bottom line is that Officer Darren Wilson did nothing improper, as most of us thought and believed. Oh and that some folk better start teaching their kids to obey the police -- like normal people do, and not commit strong armed robbery either.
@ 12:49
Please don't associate Bad News Brown With this ghetto thug. 2 completely different things
Love how the NYT et al. report the friend's version that Wilson was trying to pull Brown into the window etc.
Yup, because its not just sensible, but obvious that a 170 or so pound seated officer in a car would try and control a 300 pound standing Brown through the window. That friend ought to be charged with a bunch of shit.
I'll still say, the thing that disappointed me about the police at the protests was whoever allowed the SWAT guys to aim sniper rifles on the peaceful daytime protesters. My sense is that they drew SWAT teams from around St. Louis county, and there wasn't really a sensible leader in charge of everybody and everything. There is no way that the repeated imagery of a guy pointing a giant gun at a crowd of peaceful protesters is a good idea unless there is a very specific reason for it.
Keep voting democrat chump!
Try and find the photo of the officer after he was injured. I only saw it once. He took a pounding in the face.
So the Media walks up to a frend of Brown and asks him tell us what you saw.
I think Oprah once did an entire show about black people tending to believe outrageous lies, myths, and urban legends. That's exactly what they've done in this case, concocted an urban legend about what happened. The media loves it because it gives them a chance to exercise power over perception itself - it gives them a chance to be like Hollywood. It would be comical if it didn't result in innocent people getting hurt. In this case you have many stupid bad people who just want an excuse to be stupid and bad. If it wasn't this it would be something else.
The Michael Brown case is a major component of the Democrat get-out-the-vote effort for the 2014 elections. Look for a No True Bill announcement about 48 hours before the polls open. Just long enough for Barack, Eric, Jesse, and Al to orchestrate the outrage.

Verily and Amen...
We wished mightily that somebody would've actually been smart enough to pull all Law Enforcement out on those two nights and let these people and folks celebrate...
Then laugh as the media runs stories about exuberant celebration witha death toll...
The good thing would've been that not a single injury or fatality would have been by Police hands and the screams from the usual suspects of "Why wasn't da PO-leece around?" would have rang hollow and Jessie, Al and the others would have been on camera looking like they shit themselves while trying to defend the indefensible...
Yup... Plenty of ignorant, plaque-breath m/fers were laughing, ass shakin' and junk jumpin' along with brick and bottle tossing.

"We runnin' dis raggedy muthafuckah now!"
Why yes... Yes they are...
Rahm kisses their asses and gives the upright tax paying citizens a backhand across their front teeth at every opportunity.
The protestors demand justice...... so they chant as they riot.
Justice is supposed to be blind and fair. Yet they will only consider one thing as being justice.... the copper being railroaded. Anything less than that will terribly piss off the rioters...... facts be damned.
Has anybody seen my helmet?

Enough already with the 35th St Starbucks. You sound like a jealous 13yr old girl. Get some clout and go there or let it go. If anything, that's the last place I'd like to be.
Powder Keg!!!
The media will not be happy until there is a race war.
Justice is code word for revenge.
They want justice , lock them up for burglary , arson ,aggravated battery of police officer .end of story .

What's more important is the news media covering them when they riot. The savages won't learn anything but maybe the public will learn more about the savage.
-No True Bill-
The Catered To Constituency and their supporters and enablers say:
"Fuck da Po-leece! Da troof be racist!"
Now that these motherfuckers are ass out in a big way, they're screaming about, "Well, why did he have to shoot him so many times?
Heh... High capacity pistols in the hands of Policemen is racist and unfair.
"The Police are the problem, once we fix THEM-everything will be ok."
"You Cops are angry and full of hate for no good reason."
It would be funny if Policemen could exercise a nuclear option in communities that claim they want to live free of Police gettin' in their "bidness" with all that public safety and law enforcement bullshit they don't like...
We seriously want to see these people police themselves and each other.
Policing of the community, by the community and for the community.
No silly assed standards, no testing.
Cuz standards and testing be racist too...
The news-leak of the evidence that corroborates the officer's version of the event was done to begin the process of slowly getting the liberals and savages used to the idea that the officer won't be indicted. If, all of sudden, on a specific day, it was released that the officer would not be indicted, there could potentially be big riots in ferguson and elsewhere.
But by leaking information here and there that the forensics backs up the officer's account of the incident, people will (or should) start the process of accepting that the officer is innocent of shooting an unarmed, peaceful, surrendering, 6'03, 300 lb thug.
I would like to know if the real reason that Eric Holder is resigning from the Justice Department, is because he jumped to the conclusion that Officer Wilson was wrong to shoot Brown in Ferguson, and now that the evidence is slowly coming out that the officer was justified in doing so, Holder looks like a racist himself for what he said and did in Ferguson. He jumped to a conclusion without knowing all the facts of the case, which is really NOT what you want the Attorney General of the USA doing.
So could this also be the reason that his number 2 and number 3 people at the Justice Department are also resigning, because they wrongly believed, predicted and hoped that the officer would be charged, but now they have to face the facts that they were wrong?

So instead of facing the music when the indictments do not come down, they have cut and run like the cowards that they are.
Also, do you think that if an indictment of Officer Wilson was imminent, would Holder be stepping down when he could be increasing his political capital by not only indicting the officer, but by seeing such a hot politically-charged case through to its end?
Sharpton spoke out yesterday and stated that Darren Wilson lied to the Grand Jury and that the forensic evidence is not relevant.
Well then, if (Not So)Sharpton said so, it must be true!
Do you really think the truth plays into this? If God almighty himself came down from heaven and said the Brown was the offender and that the officer shot him to save his own life, that it would make any difference to this mob of under educated low life's?
They don't care. Just another reason to riot and maybe scare enough people into giving them yet more free shit.
another truth riddled tragedy.....travesty....
a trayvonesty!!
IIRC, Holder was also running his mouth regarding the Trayvon Martin shooting, and, we know how that turned out.
It's clear he panders to the people of his race, and, as the leader of the Justice department, you should not cater to any specific race, nor should you use your office to fan the flames of unrest, and that's exactly what he did.
To me, it boils down to education. Educated parents teach their kids to respect authority. Question it, sure, but respect it all the same. Don't challenge the police on the front end, keep your hands to yourself and be polite. If you feel that your rights were violated, then that is what the court system is for.
Uneducated parents (if I can call them parents) teach their offspring to "fuck the police". They then expect a different outcome when their kid assaults, shoots at, or attempts the aforementioned, a police officer.
Nothing like holding a Grand Jury in a gymnasium and inviting the news leakers to sit in row 2. Next they will be going to the jurors homes for interviews on their vote.
Holder & his Cronies/minions at the DOJ are resigning because a Federal Judge ruled against them on the Fast & Furious case. The truth about their mendacious machinations. The factual truths will show that the Obama Administration knowingly violated numerous Federal Laws in conducting Operation Fast & Furious. This is not including the conspiracy to cover up after the fact. The main Federal Law that they violated was the US Neutrality Law/Act. These assholes knowingly armed the Sinoloa Cartel,who used those weapons against Mexican Civilians and the Mexican government.
Cold weather is a coming to that region in mid December. NOAA. Nothing to remember here just move along and get out of the cold. Case closed.
The Mob has already pronounced judgment, egged on by Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, the New Black Panthers, Chicago's communists, anarchists, and malcontents, Planned Parenthood (?), the SEIU, some crackpot Palestinian group.
This stopped being about Michael Brown several weeks ago.
It rough times like these I like to link to some humor that adds some positive, helpful education to America's "youths" to avoid doing various illegal, very stupid actions that result in "youths" getting their arses (as the Brits would say" ) beaten or worse by the PO-leece.
Please view and pass on Black comedian and social commentator Chris Rock's timeless:
How not to get your ass beat by the police
http://youtu.be/uj0mtxXEGE8
I like to stress the positive and know I/we have been through worse. I lived in New York City late 1980s , early 1990s when the Rev. (Not) Al Sharpton first came on to the scene inciting criminal mobs after various fake racial hate crimes like the Tawana Brawley rape hoax, Central Park wilding, gang rape and near murder of a White female jogger (PBS's lying documentary King Ken Burns and his slut Marxist daughter did some ridiculous documentary that the whole Central Park rapists caught and convicted were set up and framed by racist police and supposedly one man, already in jail confessed to doing the terrible crime alone).
I note that Ref. (Not) Sharpton's race baiting, incite the mob Mew York Act was eventually shut down after he tried to incite Black criminal mobs to attack Orthodox Jews in crown Heights Brooklyn. That was too much for even Liberal Left NYC Jewish voters who help elect mayor Guliani and the rest is history... Very, very good history. Civilization was restored.
It can and must happen here in Chicago.
God bless and God protect in these rough, fallen times.
