I thin its a great idea. I actually support his supporters, it is their right and I feel sorry for him as I think he is guilty of panic and poor judgment and not someone who should be treated inhumane or unjustly. Even if he should see some consequences to his judgment.

He will need money to survive on and get through potential legal proceedings. IM genuinely glad to see there are people trying to help him through it. Also because I respect that he seems to be a decent person otherwise, at least having some kind of conscience and remorse for having ended a young mans life.

Doesn't matter what you think!
Even as a Cop he had a right to self-defense!
Better to be judged by twelve,than carried by six!

it doesn't matter what I think

but I am free to share my thoughts, like everyone else in these types of forums does

everyone has a right to self defense

what circumstance qualifies as 'self defense' and whether 'self defense' always is justified in deadly force,, are different issues,,,

if its better to be judged, than there should be no problem here,,,flowerforyou

I agree, it should matter

yet it often doesn't, in what people consider the 'GRAND SCHEME'

so true many want to think this is a democracy and it isnt

it is a republic

democracy is the wants of the majority trampling the rights of minority
i think it was Jefferson that said that

the problem is the three branches of the fed govt are not working
properly

If he is found not guilty then he better think of moving out of state.

u are probably right

and contrary to popular belief, although I do believe there should be consequences to his actions

I don't agree with him being victimized, or threatened or harmed,,,and because some people will no doubt act that way,, I truly can empathize with him,,,

All about choices.

The thug that got himself put down made his choice to be a thug.

The man who put him down chose to be a cop.

Anyone who chooses to take revenge against him will be making the choice to put their own lives in his hands.

They should ask themselves,"Are ya feeling lucky, punk?"smokin

yep choices were made

a choice to steal
a choice to shove
a choice to fight
a choice to flee
a choice to shoot SIX TIMES including two to the head

none of them were good choices

neither would a choice to use a similar excessive force upon the shooter,,,

And some have already made a choice to find the officer guilty of murder before any evidence has proven that.

And they have made that choice on pure racial bigotry.

If Wilson was given an orbital skill fracture during the incident, I think he should get a medal.

evidence:

six bullets to the body of a person who was unarmed, NOT fired during a struggle

victim falling dead from a distance from where the gun was drawn and initially fired with SIX bullets hitting him, including one that hit DIRECTLY IN THE TOP OF his head, even though he stands over 6 ft tall

EXCESSIVE, based upon THAT evidence,,

And that's the ONLY evidence there is?
You can't pick and chose what evidence you use and what evidence you overlook.

actually, I can

juries do it all the time


so far BECAUSE that's the only evidence being produced, I conclude that this was an excessive force killing


six witnesses who all give an account of a suspect who had RUN AWAY (only differing on what happened after he ran)

is enough EVIDENCE That he was no longer some immediate lethal threat,, and that shooting him SIX Times, including twice to the head, was excessive,,,,


IF , by some odd chance, they can conclude that the officer HELD HIS GROUND THERE BY THE VEHICLE(running after someone kind of kills a claim that one is fearful)

and there is a way to PROVE that this person was "CHARGING' at the officer


then there may be a CHANCE that it was something else,,,,,but that's about as likely to me as the possibility that the news reporter was actually friends with the killer and asked him to do it ,,,,,


I don't KNOW That he didn't, but Id find it unlikely,,,,

The amount of donations for Officer Wilson has increased tremendously, Willing:

Online fundraisers for Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson surpassed the amount of money raised for Michael Brown's family as the officer's supporters gathered at an afternoon rally Saturday.

Supporters of Wilson, the police officer who shot and killed Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., came to Barney's Sports Pub in south St. Louis.

"Many of us have received death threats toward ourselves and our families," said one speaker, wearing sunglasses, paint beneath her eyes and a baseball cap. "We will not hide. We will no longer live in fear … If you support Darren Wilson, make your voices heard."

She refused to give the media her name, saying "You want my name? I am Darren Wilson. We are Darren Wilson.

The media has shown a strong bias against Wilson supporters, the speaker said, drawing loud applause from the crowd.

"We share the united belief that officer Wilson's actions on Aug. 9 were warranted and justified and he has our unwavering support," the woman said.

Another rally is planned for Sunday.

--->>A crowd-funding page created for Wilson raised $235,010 from 5,902 people before organizers stopped accepting donations Friday after surpassing their goal of $100,000 in four days. The group then opened a new fundraising page, which already has more than $104,000.

EXCESSIVE, based upon THAT evidence,,


Brown was 6'4" tall and 295 lbs. He could still be considered "armed". If you saw the video of him robbing the store, you will know what I mean.

Wilson is a lot shorter than Brown. Many suspect that Brown was bent over charging after Wilson and that was how he was shot in the top of the head.
