Do you think they doctored the photos?

 

Do you think Conservativetreehouse.com miscalculated?

I did not bother clicking the link. Propaganda is a poor substitute for journalism. I have never visited Conservativetreehouse.com.

What does the Chief stand to gain in a cover up? This is not an officer from his department. He stands to lose far more by covering something like this up (in the day of cell phones/videos EVERYWHERE) than he gains by covering it up. Can anyone give me a reason why? It's very likely he doesn't even know Officer Wilson...

What you posted from Conservativetreehouse.com looked to me like random comments from users posted under an article. Is that what they were? If it is...what makes them reliable?

Look at this link.

Look at the location of the body. Then look at the parking lot on the south side of Canfield. You can see from the front of the white car by the building to Brown is at least 3 car lengths. Average car is 12 feet or so.

Didn't say coverup. Said he was not close to being correct and THAT has fueled speculation . Why was he wrong? Did he get lied to before the presser?

Then look at the link of the picture I posted. Picture is pretty clear it wasn't close to 35 feet.

You aren't even sure what he was specifically talking about....so you don't know what's right or wrong.

I have seen pictures of the site. Like HB20 said, it would make no sense for the Chief to lie because the facts are the facts and they will become publicly available. The photo has been available for weeks. Where is the news here?

Btw you didn't say cover up, but did you read the title of the link you posted in this thread?

WHo is "he?"

 

I'm not sure why you and a few others are trying to muddy the obvious question being posed. Why was the stated "entire scene" so far off of reality? You and others say you don't "trust" sites that mislead you. People in Ferguson don't trust police. We now have police chief misstating (for whatever reason) what some perceive as a piece of info that helps paint a picture of what occurred.

 

You don't think that they might be a little dubious of claims made by the police?

I don't write headlines. My posed question was very clear.

I'm still waiting for HB20 and Rapp to answer the posed question: Does the reported distance vs the actual distance matter?

The Chief...Who else?

 

You hear what you want to hear. "He" didn't just say the"entire scene" he said from the door to the shooting...snd didn't mention the body.

 

I'm not trying to muddy anything, I'm just not willing to jump in and assume he was trying to cover something up. I can wait for the facts to be revealed.

The question makes no sense, so why should anybody waste their time answering it? The answer to the question depends on the answers to a series of questions, such as:

 

1. How badly was Officer Wilson injured?

 

2. In which direction and at what speed was the thug running?

 

3. Might Wilson have feared that he was losing consciousness when he decided to fire?

 

4. Might a reasonable person in Wilson's situation have feared for his life?

 

Ultimately, the only answer that matters is #4. Everything else is just random noise, or red herrings, if you prefer.

Go listen to the entire presser. At 6:00 he says the entire scene was 35 feet. He said "what I was trying to articulate was this wasn't a very big scene." Why would he say "entire" but then only mean "part?"

 

So, again, does the distance matter? If not, why?
