Ferguson officer Darren Wilson in talks to resign from police force, sources say

Perhaps the common thread is that both killed an unarmed black alleged attacker. Since GZ is less than perfect then it stands to reason that Wilson may not be perfect either. ;)

The subject must be changed from what the victim did (assault and battery?) to become a victim and then simply allege that race "must have been" a factor in the decision to use deadly force. The trick then is to force the alleged perp to prove that was not the case. The race hustlers always make the issue proving the absolute innocence of the accused and never admitting that the "victim" had initiated the conflict.

I agree with your conclusion, but what they fail to realize is that their comparison is phony from the jump...Zimmerman was not a cop, although he wanted to be, and Wilson was a uniformed officer, on duty, and assaulted as proven by witnesses to it that day.

Are you serious? Umm, try not to jump to any assumption of what my position is.

Its simply reality. In a perfect world, it wouldn't matter but we don't live in a perfect world. This guy's life will be in danger for quite some time. If he were SMART, he'd realize this and keep vanish if acquitted and try to rebuild his life.

Did you see the question marks? That sir, denotes a question asked of you...Not an assumption...But even in the face of your faux outrage here, you manage to answer the question...The statement was a threat...Boy, what a world we live in today, when a cop that was assaulted, and did his job now has to live his life under threat by societies reprobates that believe he should have let the little thug criminal go...

Whether one is cop does not (should not?) make an execution into self defense. The legal argument in both cases was said to be self defense. It appears that many want a trial in all cases regardless of evidence; I suppose the hope is that a jury will demand proof of innocence rather than making the state prove that a given shooting was indeed murder. Beyond a reasonable doubt is a very high bar, especially if even one credible witness expresses that doubt.

LOL, whatever man. Your question was lobbed based on your assumption that I think he did anything wrong. Perhaps you should pan through my comments in regards to this situation before assuming you know my position. And if you still view it as a threat, you have significant reading comprehension problems.

I'll state it again since you're clearly struggling. Its clear, regardless of the evidence, that there are many with consumed by irrational emotion that they would want to do harm to this man. Is it right or make one iota of sense, of course not. Is it fair or just, no. But its REALITY. They're putting bounties out on this guys head. They're currently trying to find his location with assistance of the media. Do you take that seriously? I sure as hell do. So again, at the conclusion of this, Wilson will have choice. He could remain in the public eye and risk his life or not. Thats not a threat, its a statement of fact.

So now its up to you. You can just concede and and simply acknowledge that your made incorrect assumption or.....further entrench yourself, look rather foolish just so you feel you came out on top of meaningless internet discussion. Your call.

At the time of the incident Zimmerman had already changed his mind and no longer wanted to be an Officer.
So no, such as claim is irrelevant as it is not true. Just saying.

Do you think that Officer Wilson "executed" Brown?

Alright, let's not get snotty....Thank you for clarifying. Look, I am not saying that there aren't nuts out there that want nothing else but to blow this up into chaos, and anarchy, which is what would happen should the mob rule, and Wilson be killed...But you talk of 'Bounty's'? The same thing happened with Zimmerman, and the NBP's...My guess is that they are the same doing that here...Why isn't Holder going after them? That is a crime is it not?

No and I doubt that the grand jury will think so either. Only the race hustling poverty pimps seem to think that (black?) unarmed folks are not capable of violent assault or inflicting serious injury/death.

Ok, but all I was saying is that to compare the Martin/Zimmerman case to this one is Bull...The only reason to do so is because the race baiters, anarchists, and trolls wanted Z to fry, and they lost, so they must transfer their misguided rage onto any case that comes up that they can pin a false narrative on...

Like I said; Just saying. :shrug:

Wilson has told associates he would resign as a way to help ease pressure and protect his fellow officers. Wilson has expressed concern about resigning while the grand jury was hearing evidence for fear it would appear he was admitting fault.

Damn CNN, sources say?

Well if true, good for him.

Officer Wilson would be foolish to resign before he is completely exonerated. The city and his police union are responsible for his legal bills while he remains on the job, even if he's suspended.

Officer Wilson would also be wise to line up another police officer position in another jurisdiction before he resigns as well. He has a significant amount of on-the-job experience and shouldn't let that lapse or go to waste solely to appease the ignorant mob assembling nearby.

Did you read the article?

... is in the final stages of negotiations with city officials to resign, according to people close to the talks.

Wilson maintains he hasn't done anything wrong, and the resignation talks have hinged on whether a grand jury returns an indictment against him in the death of Brown, people close to the talks said.​
That seems to me that they will be waiting for the GJ decision first before any finalization.

Fair enough. I've had my fill of Ferguson/Brown/Wilson articles to last a lifetime, so I was simply responding to the limited information you posted in the OP. Thanks for the clarification.

Well, the snotty came from the assumption that I was lobbing a threat, which I wasn't. All good.

Actually think this one is much worse than Zimmerman because the length of time actually caused the reactionaries to mellow out a bit other than the race merchants and court junkies. This is much fresher than that so the reaction will be much worse if he is indeed not charged.

As far as the threats, do you really have to ask why Holder isn't pursuing this threat? Assuming you're being rhetorical and just pointing out the obvious. I count the days when this man is no longer the AG.

It takes a real man to admit his mistake, face up to it, and try to make it right.

I see no mistake.

If wilson didnt shoot brown, brown may have killed him. None of the retards protesting would care and the news certainly wouldnt have given it more than local coverage

Wilson did the right thing

I doubt another dept would want the attention that came with hiring him. He is probably done in law enforcement

I doubt he wants anything to do with law enforcement anymore too. He should leave MO for his own safety and that of his family, and move somewhere where he can get a job that pays him good money and he isn't always having to look over his shoulder.
 
He resigns because of the same behavior the protestors are claiming to be unacceptable is exactly what they are doing.

Yes, his career is probably ruined. I hope he's able to find another job. He probably needs to leave that town.

I would be willing to bet that there are other Agencies that would be more than willing to hire him, and some that would actually seek him out.
