That is the problem that has been highlighted over and over in the news reports today. Not once have I heard an explanation of what happened to make Wilson feel it was necessary to shoot to kill. The first two shots were at close range--what merited use of a gun instead of a taser? After that, why not shoot for the leg or wherever else--why were kill shots to the head necessary? He was large and aggressive and threatening so you had to kill him before he...bumrushed you with no weapon?
Lmao @ "dude". He said that a lot.

In response to the other part of your post, I agree. According to the testimony, Brown ran, Wilson pursued him, Brown stopped, Wilson stopped, Brown turned around and came towards Wilson, more shots were fired. It's just funny how black men are shot and killed by police officers 21 more times than white men are. Things that make me go hmmm.

Not to be negative, but there WILL be another Ferguson incident. That's just how this country values black lives. They don't.
