From a moving car?The first reports I read apparently came from protesters who were there. They were saying that the shots came from 125 yards away with a pistol. If that was the case then the shooter was either the unluckiest person in the world who "accidentally" shot the cops or he was a better shot than anyone on the planet.
I saw the video and heard the shots. The gunman must have been pretty close. I'd guess he was no more than the other side of the street and was probably on a car. The idea that it was anything other than attempted murder is conspiracy fodder.
From a moving car?
My guess is that it wasn't moving when he took the shots.
yeah, but it's really a media hyped thing, made to seem worse than it is if it exists at all.

The issue in Ferguson isn't only white cops shooting black men. What's bizarre is I've seen you criticize the heavy handed tactics of cops but Ferguson is the poster boy of systematic abusive and excessive force.
In all my travels, by far, the most racist state I've ever had the pleasure of being in was missouri, joplin to be exact. but that's anecdotal.
I have no doubt this permeates into the police.
However, mike brown was a thug who just strong armed robbed a bodega, and got shot charging a cop. Race, in this specific incident had nothing to do with it and rallying behind mike brown, makes the pro-reform movement less respectable.
What?
Not when they are committing a disproportionate amount.
No idea.He did admit it, and he claims he was aiming at someone in the crowd who he was having a "disagreement" with.
So now that we know this, does it make a difference? Does it make his story believable?
Based on the updated information from The Conservative Treehouse,... The length of the street he is driving on, as well as the time between when the image was taken and the time the shots were fired it would suggest you were right.From the Conservativetreehouse blog.My guess is that it wasn't moving when he took the shots.
Whoah, when asked if shots fired from “red vehicle” McCulloch confirms the red vehicle is part of the investigation.

So, where does Wilson go to get his reputation back?Mike Brown was a thug, the DOJ report supports that the use of force was justified, but it's pretty apparent by the other stuff in the DOJ report on why the people in Ferguson didn't trust the verdict or police/justice system in charge of making that verdict. The report also finds there are massive abuses by the Police while the City either directly benefited by that abuse or failed to provide any sort of oversight.
It's a pretty damning set of information and it's pretty easy to see why "hey guys, the shooting was justified" hasn't resulted in people going home and saying "back to business as usual".
To the extent that he could within the framework of an entire police department and city leadership that has terrible reputation?So, where does Wilson go to get his reputation back?
