Quote:Evidently when presented with the evidence, the grand jury decided differently. What would you do if this 6'4", 270 lb teen (who had just committed a strong arm robbery) and has wrestled with you for your gun is coming back at you. He was obviously such a "nice, innocent" kid. Why don't we look at the evidence, as the grand jury did, before we make a decision. Officer Wilson now will have to quit his job and move his family to another city. Of course, he deserves it because he's a "white, adult male". So he only got what he already deserved.
I'm 6'4", have been since I was 16. My weight has varied a bit since then, but I've always been in exceptionally good physical condition - running, playing rugby, etc.
I've been subdued by police on more than one occasion. I was never shot at, let alone shot, by a cop.
This isn't about what Wilson deserves, it's about what the community should have had - a trial.
