Wilson left lawn half mowed, went into hiding
Darren Wilson: Attorneys discuss his time in hiding - CNN.com
This is a joke. The guy cannot live a normal life because he did the RIGHT thing. What a joke. I wish we could prosecute those who posted his address. Even if it was redacted.
It does seem that the media in the US gets away with subtly inciting violence. Perhaps one day a brave prosecutor will take up your challenge.
I don't know if anyone has brought this up in the many threads about Ferguson but Wilson has to be one of the most non-intimidating cops I have seen in sometime.
Don't mean to be a Monday quarterback but I wonder if this situation could have been diverted without killing the guy. But I have this was partly due to a big guy feeling more powerful than a sheepish looking cop.
Not saying that a cop needs to look like Hulk Hogan but just wonder if this made the perp feel more bullet proof.
Just my two cents.

This is what the left wants-mob justice. Facts be damned.
I may be mistaken, but I believe I read somewhere that Wilson is 6'3 and 220lbs. That's not a small, sheepish man. However, compared to Brown who's taller and 70 plus pounds heavier, he may look small. Brown didn't get a reputation as a bully and as a guy who took what he wanted by being intimidated by anyone smaller than him and there aren't too many bigger. What you may be seeing is Wilson's demeanor, which is not that of the hard nosed racist cop that the media and others have tried to portray him as.
It'll never happen.
If someone hunted Wilson down and killed him that would just be another week of 24/7 viewership. The media would LOVE that.

In a situation such as Wilson's, you don't stop to think twice.
Never happen - they cower behind the 1A.
freedom of speech is not something that is exclusive to those with good intentions
Perhaps the black community in Ferguson feels that is what they have been experiencing in the form of an institutionalized mob. Who knows. Maybe it will cause cops to think twice before they kill someone whether their authority to use deadly force is worth the price of not trying a different approach.
Sadly, that is correct.
No different than the WBC & the KKK.

Let us not confuse the idea the he was in his rights with doing the right thing..... He may have been within his rights; but he killed an unarmed man, that is rarely doing "the right thing."
This is one of those times when it was the right thing.
You have absolutely zero basis to make that statement, but that did not stop you from doing so....
Sorry but this isn't the 1950'. Crime is over represented in the black community (blue and white collar). Once Brown tried to get that gun he wasn't unarmed. Punching a cop is assault and is a legal defense for the shooting in this case.
Stop making excuses for thuggery, its as tired as the war on women.
That's probably true, but once you start making excuses for people's lives being threatened not because of a legal infraction gone unpunished but a moral one, you're in trouble.Let us not confuse the idea that he was in his rights with doing the right thing..... He may have been within his rights; but he killed an unarmed man, that is rarely doing "the right thing."
I am sure a ton of people could speculate about a number of things Wilson could have done differently to prevent the death of an unarmed man. That level of second guessing was never a subject to the investigation.
But...when was the last time they had reasonable suspicion someone was walking around with an illegal weapon or cocaine in those places?The the police arrest more black people in relation to their percentage of the population does not necessarily mean that crime is overrepresented in the black community. When was the last time they stop and frisked Wall Street and Capitol Hill whites when they were out on the streets of Georgetown?
