Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame [WL:168]

Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

Good grief, it's the one part of the video that's constantly replayed. To your comment though, Rocket started a thread about this, giddy that he "paid for the cigars", which even if true, doesn't negate the assault. Perhaps the OP could have taken a little time too, to be more familiar with the video and if not, there's nothing wrong with bringing up what he's failed to mention.

I'm giddy?

Wow, you not only know what I REALLY mean, you know my emotions too. You sure are an expert on me. Anything else I don't know about myself? Am I actually Asian? Maybe I'm a secret Muslim....Come on, tell me about myself....
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

Well, not in the same way. I would have linked to the full video without the personal attacks. He has not seen the complete video, he saw the one at his source. Time to move on.

He should have watched the full video and done his homework. He came in here with a Liberal blog and then goes on to say he never saw the video. Sorry, Redress, but he made himself fair game. And I like Rocket, BTW. But the truth is, if this were US Con or someone else doing this, he'd be attacked from all sides, and I think you know that.
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

I've never met a Libertarian who thinks there shouldn't be police. Never once.

Even their god Ron Paul.
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

I saw this video and he did leave money on the counter and the clerk accepted it look closely
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

Check that bold print called "a title". :lol:

Yes, the rules that state you must use the title of your source in the title of the thread. Anything else?
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

This is a left wing hack site. I've ran into them a few times - the last time when they tried to smear Ted Nugent. Note how no legitimate news org has said the same thing.

0:17-0:20, Brown reaches very far over the counter as if to grab something and then jerks backwards, as if the cashier swatted at him or something. Frankly, it looks like he went for the cash register. There is nothing in the video proving he paid, and he definitely took merchandise with him, against the wishes of the cashier.

I don't understand...what's the explanation for the cashier coming after him if he didn't take something?

Also this blog's cut of the video leaves out the actual altercation at the end near the door.
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

It's hard to see the exchange because of the scratch off tickets or whatever that is in the way. Nothing in the video makes me necessarily believe that anything illegal took place. There's no sound, so we don't know what was said.

If this video is proof of a robbery, I'm having a hell of a time buying it.

Well that's nonsense.

First off, ASSAULT is illegal, and that includes someone just touching you, grabbing you, spitting on you, etc. The video shows clearly that Brown assaulted the Clerk.

As for a robbery happening ? Didn't the kids attorney evsn admit to him strong arm robbing the store ?
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

So giddy he actually added cautions in his OP post.

If you can't see the position he's taken and tried to advance with this thread, you're the only one.
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

Check that bold print called "a title". :lol:

Oh FFS you might have actually read his OP before making accusations. Here, let me help with the very first sentence of his OP:

The title of the article is a bit misleading, but this is interesting.

Note this is in BN, so he did not have control of the title by the rules.

We have already established the OP blog is lying and using an edited video to reinforce that lie. Keep up.
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

Yes, the rules that state you must use the title of your source in the title of the thread. Anything else?

Only if you post it in BN, which you did. I am curious what's breaking news about this? What's being presented in your OP that's new to the story?
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

Oh, right. What I REALLY mean....

It must strike a nerve when someone dares contradict your reality.

That's what I'm curious about too. How is this "Breaking News" by any definition? It isn't. There is no "news" here.

A few more lies and a bit of falsified evidence offered as distraction.

Ummm...OK...so it's only a rule if I post it where I did....so I followed that rule....and it's my fault.

Brilliant!
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

I know many Libertarians, and I don't know any who rant about the size of police forces in cities they don't even live in. Do you?

I don't worry about the militarization of a police force in Missouri [...]
So, you're saying that Rand Paul is not a libertarian? (not that I would disagree, just trying to get a handle on your terminology).

While you don't care about the militarization of local police forces, that militarization is a direct result of the federal government's participation in the equipping and training of local police forces, which I would think any true libertarian would oppose.

But when we see so-called libertarians rebelling at the federal government but championing the power of state governments (such as the power of a governor to force elected officials to resign without trial) I then to think these so-called libertarians are actually fake libertarians. I would think an oppressive government is an oppressive government, regardless of its status as federal, state, or local.

But then I'm not a libertarian... whatever that is ;)

Look, you've discovered you were fooled/played by this blog and that you bought the lie hook, line and sinker. Why continue to defend this nonsense?

Paying for the cigars would be a new twist.

No, it's your fault for presenting as "evidence" a story everyone (which is everyone but you apparently) who has seen the entire video knows is false.

Oh, sorry. Did I contradict your buddy? Tarding up a thread with "my REAL meaning" is what X is great at.
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

" Canada John " and I were going back and forth on this subject earlier.

He seems to think ( a brilliant observation if I may add ) that the Clerk was simply in Brown's way and that Brown only wanted a bag of Doritos. I agreed somewhat, ( these clerks often DO arbitrarily jump in the way of customers when they're reaching for junk food. I mean these clerks NEVER stay behind the counter anynore ) but upon further review I stated that it actually looked like the " gentle giant " was only straightening out the clerks clip on tie.

He only wanted this Clerk to look his VERY best, so he lent a helping hand. It was a Fatherly gesture if anything.

Not relevant. I followed the rules of the forum. If you can't live with that, it's not my problem.
 
Re: Brown paid for cigars - Ferguson Police Busted – Attempt To Defame Shooting Vict

Paying for the cigars would be a new twist.

No, no it wouldn't, not in the context of the whole video. And the police report was taken before all the hubbub about Brown got started.

Well, either X is correct or you foolishly bought the lie and somehow never saw the complete video, especially the part that has been playing 24/7.

Which is it?

Its " hard to see the exchange " because it never happened.
