I don't think the people described above would fall within my non-ignorant qualification.

I'd call Al Sharpton anything but ignorant. Manipulative, conniving, plays to the stupidity of others, but ignorant isn't something I'd use to describe him.

And people like that are the ones downplaying and dismissing the facts in this case and tossing a match into the drum of gasoline. And while the ignorant are lapping it up, but the smart ones are ignoring it because it doesn't benefit them to take their ball and go home.

I saw on Fox news that the family has hired Dr. Michael Baden, famed forensic medical examiner to perform a second autopsy. Wonder where the funds for that came from?

If there ends up being multiple gunshots to the front with one being closer range than the other (i.e., he kept moving towards the cop as described in the background of that video), I can't wait to see how the black community explains/justifies their marches and protests. On the other hand, if he was only shot from behind, then there may be justification for the outrage. (although I still think it is a bad case to make a stand when the guy just robbed a convenience store).

They don't need to justify it. A black "Kid" was shot by a cop. That's all they need. Just like a "black guy" was running for president.

I am sure their attorney is paying the cost in preparation for the civil suit. I don't have a problem with it in principle. If it was my son, I would probably want an independent autopsy.

Probably not the picture of Michael Brown the media will be using. Just saying.

I don't know why this is so hard to understand. Of course the protesters and race baiters are going to ignore inconvenient facts and evidence. However, most people do care what the evidence is. I assume you (and others in this thread) would like to know whether he was shot in the front or the back and that the answer may factor into whether you believe the shooting was justified or not.

The protesters and race baiters are the ones getting the attention.

In my opinion, the shooting was justified.

If autopsy results in an unarmed man shot in the back from a distance, you would still think it was justified? Sorry, I would be somewhat sympathetic to their protest if that was the case. Note, I don't think that is the case based on circumstantial evidence, but we can't rule it out right now.

That narrative, in the link is pretty damning to Brown's supporters

Brown's supporters are blind to the facts & at this point probably don't care anymore. They just want to cause mayhem & chaos. I was watching a live interview on CNN just now & people standing behind the person talking were waving & grinning & putting their hats on sideways acting like they have no upbringing at all.

I know you're playing Devils advocate. I just don't see a man with his reputation and record suddenly and without reason losing it and going postal on someone. Not saying it doesn't happen and wouldn't happen. I just don't see it likely. It's just a reason to cop hate and race bait.

Why isn't one autopsy enough?

I'm sure the attorney is taking this case on contingency. I hope he goes bankrupt on this case.

IF facts are presented to oppose those currently, obviously I would change my mind.

I'd be willing to bet the independent autopsy will show otherwise(surprise! NOT).
