Documentary Purports to Challenge the Established Facts About Michel Brown's Death

This "documentary," reported on by John Sexton, changes nothing.

First up, the documentary is given the hucksterish hysterical name of "Stranger Fruit." This is of course a reference to the song "Strange Fruit," about lynchings. The main lyric goes that trees in the south bear a strange fruit -- the bodies of black men hanged by the neck.

That's terrible. That's incendiary racial provocateurism. That's agitating for violence.

Which they got-- there was in fact renewed violence and unrest after the release of this "documentary."

The clip they're promoting shows, they claim, Michael Brown buying the cigarillos at an earlier stop by that bodega where he later strong-armed the owner. They're claiming he already paid for those cigarillos, but apparently didn't take them the first time. For whatever reason.

They say this casts a new light on his later visit to the joint, when he took the cigarellos, exited without paying, and then strong-armed the owner when the owner tried to stop him from leaving without paying.

The New York Times apparently buys into this fully-- but strangely its account does not mention the inconvenient fact that Michael Brown attacked Officer Wilson and grabbed his gun.

Is there new video that disputes that? Apparently not! But the racewar agitators have a very ambiguous video and some cockadoodle Loose Change-style conspiracy theories so I guess it's time to burn and loot in Ferguson again.

Even if the "documentary's" claim is right -- that Michael Brown paid for the cigarillos with pot -- 1, how does that buttress the character of Michael Brown, and 2, how does being a penny-ante drug dealer who got rough with a customer change the fact he attacked and tried to kill a cop?

America is so racist that a black man can't even transact a drug crime, walk down the middle of the street impeding traffic, refuse a white officer's lawful order to clear the street, then physically attack that white officer and attempt to wrestle his gun away from him in order to execute him without being arrested and then shot when he resists arrest.

Have we learned nothing?

Sexton notes this quote from the New York Times' "report:"

Regardless of what happened at the store in the early-morning hours, the new security footage does not resolve long-simmering questions about Mr. Brown's encounter with Officer Darren Wilson along a Ferguson street that day.

Sexton wants to know in which questions still need resolving, and why Eric Holder's report did not put to rest these "long-simmering questions."

Is the New York Times saying that Eric Holder lied? Are they Michael Brown Truthers?

Do they disbelieve all government reports, or only those prepared and published by a black man?

I have some "long simmering questions" about the whitebread New York Times myself.

42 I don't think they are claiming he bought them at an earlier time. I think they are claiming he was engaged in a drug deal that happened over the course of two days wherein he handed over pot to someone the day before and then came back and snatched the cigarillos he was "owed" the next day.

This makes no sense since a) the clerk who he menaced was in no way acting like the snatching of the cigarillos was an expected or ok thing, b) even if it were a drug deal it is STILL theft since the clerk has no legal right to pay for drugs with property he does not own and c) Michael Brown still menaced the clerk when he came back into the story the next day. Oh, and d) the police officer did not initially know of the robbery but was just trying to get Brown to move out of the middle of the street when Brown assaulted him.

nothing about the new narrative makes sense. but then "hands up don't shoot" is still believed as gospel, thanks to media promoting the lie. It's almost as if the media was a bunch of lying leftists stirring up racial division long before Trump called them out for it.

106 Facts of the case:

Brown was an 18 year old hood rat druggie. While high he decided to attempt to assault a cop punching him repeatedly in the face. The MFM lied their ass off inciting riots. The Ferguson mayor and leadership allowed this to occur because Democrat.

It is virtually impossible to get anything accurate about this from the MFM. To this day they lie their asses off.

194 As far as I can see, the entire issue of the Swisher Sweets being taken is irrelevant, especially since the cop didn't know anything about the incident. What the cop DID see was this thug walking down the middle of the street, impeding traffic, and so he tells said thug to get out of the street. The thug then attacks the cop, at one point smacking the cop in the head so hard he fractures on of the orbits in his (the cop's) skull (that's the bony socket in the skull where an eyeball and it's associated equipment resides).

Then said thug tries to take the cop's firearm away from him. My late father was a street cop for 30 years, and I can tell one thing you do NOT want to do is try to take a cop's gun away from him/her, especially to the point where the cop's weapon discharges, as happened in this case. Because if you do, that cop is going to interpret such an action as a threat against his/her life, and justifiably so.

So the thug starts to run away after the cop's gun goes off, but then inexplicably turns around and proceeds to advance on the cop a second time. Since the thug has already threatened the cop's life once, the cop takes the appropriate action, and kills him. All the medical and forensic evidence confirms that this is what happened.

And here we are some years later and this is still an issue? Un-fucking-believable....

Why?

Because they would say, "Yeah, we saw that video. We reviewed all the surveillance videos from that store. There's nothing new here that we didn't already see."

But, the whole point of releasing this video is a strike at Trump.

Because--mark my words--by the end of the week, they are going to DEMAND that Sessions re-open the investigation.

Knowing full damned well he won't and, likely, legally CAN'T.

But, it'll be proof that Trump and Sessions are racist.

Their long-game is that Trump is going to fire the entire civil rights division and this is to make that move radioactive.

Two thoughts here:

1) Turkey's borders aren't exactly closed, he's not behind a Berlin wall
2) Letting Turkey into the EU is exactly what would cause millions more Muslims to pour into Europe, since they cannot stop free travel through their borders. Spain has been letting in tons of "migrants" and "refugees" then letting them leave for richer and more sucker-filled climes like Sweden for years.

222 As far as I can see, the entire issue of the Swisher Sweets being taken is irrelevant, especially since the cop didn't know anything about the incident.

Completely disagree. His possession of the Swisher Sweets is completely relevant. The fact that Gentle Giant had just stolen the cigars explains, at least in part, his behavior when confronted by the cops. He didn't know why he was being stopped. (Actually, it was only because he was strolling down the center of a busy street.) His extreme reaction was dictated by his belief that he was being stopped because of the robbery.

It's apparently popular in the St. Looters ghetto community to not only reload cigarillos with weed (and modern weed can be *damn strong stuff*), but also to lace them with PCP.

I don't know whether angel dust was part of the tox screen.

It would come as no surprise that it had been left out. There seems to be considerable sloppiness in this process.

For instance, in the Trayvon Martin incident, Martin had been documented as obtaining the over the counter ingredients for "purple drank", everything needed but the psychoactive intoxicant ingridient dextromorphan, but the tox screen failed to look for DXM in Martin's system.

Its probably not standard, and those tests are expensive, despite how CSI and other modern cop shows show it. So it would have to be a special request from the police or more likely the attorney general's office, and clearly they weren't interested.

maybe Erdogan has some control over the flow. But I remember him
threatening Merkel the same way a year ago or more. But as crazy as
Merkel and other EU weenies may be, they recognized that would give the
Muslim world direct "port of entry" or some such thing. Legal entry.
There may be some currency/trade issues as well. I've gotten so sick of

315 Not sure if Ace or the NYTimes mentions this critical detail but:

The store owner ABSOLUTELY DENIES the ridiculous conspiracy-theory claim of the documentary that what we see on the new video is a drug deal in which pot is exchanged for Swisher Sweets. Instead, the store owner insists, at the end of the video, when Brown is walking out of the store with the Swisher Sweets and then stops and puts them back, is exactly what it appears to be: Brown was attempting to shoplift the Swisher Sweets, the clerk yelled at Brown as he headed toward the door, "Hey, I see what you're doing! Put those back or I'll call the cops!" and Brown then decided to put them back before leaving.

Then, the following day, he decided to follow-up on his shoplifting attempt and do it successfully this time, and that's the video we all saw before where he roughs up the clerk who tries to stop him.

360 As for pot:

there has been a variety of recent studies that basically proved what everyone has always suspected:

Pot makes you:

-- forgetful
-- "unmotivated" (lazy)
-- and is as bad for your lungs (as possibly worse)
as tobacco.

In that list, "forgetful" is a euphemism for "long-term brain damage."

368 It's the sign of the times.
In the runup to the 2008 election, there was an anonymous YouTube conservative activist who posted several damning videos of Obama speechifying about single-payer, bankrupting coal, and aspiring to disarm our nuclear power.
In the comment section on one of those videos, a person remarked that he didn't believe it was a real video because the audio didn't match his lips moving. Well, it was in sync when I viewed it, and any mouthreader could see he said what we heard. (We all learned later that he did in fact believe these things.)
After reading that comment, all I could think was that there will come a time when we will not believe what we witness with our own eyes.
Another blow to truth and reason and common sense.
Add another conspiracy to the mix.

yeah they must think all Europe are timid infidels. they may be half right.

It seems they are just ignorant mobs that only know jihad. Paris was doing some serious sweeps under martial law type authority ... but there still seem to be a lot of no-go zones.

Hopefully they don't have the critical mass they think they do, and Europe is showing some spine. (not the current leaders, who are anti-western civ) America is showing some spine too ... and it drives the leftists to insanity.

392 My Script for "Gentle Giant: The Michael Brown Story"

Our story opens on a sunny Sunday morning, the air is crisp, the robins are chirping, the streets are spic and span from the neighborly efforts of the local youths to leave not one gum wrapper in the street.

(A bell rings above the door of a mom and pop store and in walks Michael Brown)

Michael Brown: Top O' the Morning fine sir! I was on my way to church and I thought it might do well for my constitution to partake of a Swisher Sweet Tabaccorillo.

Storekeep: Why certainly, my fine outstanding law abiding young man! Here are a handfull! Pass my salutations on to the Parson!

(Michael Brown draws the Swisher Sweet across his upper lip, drawing in the fragrance of the fine tobacco).

Michael Brown: You know Winston Churchill once said "A woman's just a woman, but a good cigar's a smoke!" But he never had the opportunity to meet your missus! WOuld you tell her hello for me?"

Storekeep: I certainly will!

Michael Brown: I must harry if I am not to miss the sermon! Toodle-oo!

Storekeep: Come back soon!

(Michael Brown steps briskly out of the store and struts down the sidewalk, whistling "I'd tip my Hat to You(If I Only Had a Hat)" between puffs of his cigarillo. He is very careful to blow the puffs of smoke away from the butterfly that is flitting around his beaming visage).

(Ominous Music)

(Extreme close -up of the lenses of a pair of reflective sunglasses, showing Michael Brown walking down the sidewalk in the reflection)

Officer Wilson: Look at that %#@#^&, walking down the street as if his life mattered! I bet he stole that cigarillo!

Yeah weed makes you dumb and certainly seems to damage young people's brain development. The problem is people on it seem to think it makes you terribly wise and deep.

Alcohol is incredibly damaging, but so entrenched in society its virtually impossible to remove. And in very light use seems to be fine. People claim light use of weed, but I've never yet seen someone who stayed at "a joint or two on the weekends" without smoking more and more.

397 If i were shoveling snow-and I do some of it-just not as much as FenSpouse and I collapsed my son would say scowling, "What are you doing there?" He gets it from your father. When were walking somewhere years ago the pavement was uneven and I tripped and fell. FenSpouse was walking ahead of me and he turned around and said that. The other time I remember him doing that was when i fell down the stairs after our son was born because I was so exhausted. Sure enough he came put of his study and said, "What are you doing?!"
I was not too exhausted or hurt to not be snarky andI said, "I just thought I'd throw myself down the stairs for the heck of it." I laugh about it now. I wasn't too amused at the time.

398 They are constantly pulling bodies up from basements in Philly. When an old immigrant would die, they're just throw 'em in a hole in the basement. Or throw them in Dock Creek. Or the river. The whole damned place is corpses. When they went to drive the Ben Franklin Bridge pilings, they had to relocate hundreds (or thousands, depending on who you ask) of yellow fever corpses. Same with all the major squares and most of the parks.

A huge problem!

But the legislatures courts have abrogated their responsibilities by allowing the mere presence of alcohol in a drivers breath to be grounds for a charge of DUI. It should be behavior and poor judgement that is illegal, not some ridiculous chemical assay.
