You are once again arguing the moment, I am arguing conditions.

Ok lets ask you again and see if you can actually answer the question. How do you know what Wilson was feeling?

You cannot tell me it makes any sense to confront someone that big at a seated position at tactical disadvantage because you are scared of them.

Maybe because he wasn't scared at the time because he had no reason to be. But after the events turned hostile, he then had a reason to be scared. He 'confronted' Brown for walking in the road by rolling down his window and telling him to stop doing that. Was Wilson somehow supposed to anticipate what happened next? Is he supposed to approach every situation imaginable as if the worst could happen? Are these questions i'm posing ever going to be answered?

That does not come across as fear. I have seen plenty of fights between boys and men. The act of slamming that door into Brown's legs doesn't sound like fear. That sounds like a man loosing his cool.

You know, for someone who keeps screaming at others for being biased, you sure are biased yourself. How do you know that Wilson slammed his door into Browns legs? How do you that Wilson's version is wrong? That Brown repeatedly slammed Wilson's door shut when he was attempting to get out of his car?

No one is excusing Brown. I am saying it makes no sense to claim you were afraid.

I think it makes perfect sense.

If someone that big verbally confronts you and you know it could be trouble, and again, I have seen this plenty of times between boys and men. If you know something is going to be a threat to you, you have two choices.

There wasn't exactly a lot of dialoge between the two before it kicked off. How exactly, after a few words, are either of them supposed to know the others intentions? And stop saying 'verbally confront' or actually define what that means, because at the moment it seems to mean: initiate a conversation with someone.

Make it worse by lighting the fuse. Or backing off and making space to avoid it getting worse.

Except that Wilson has a job to do, you know, uphold the law? Walking in the road is illegal isn't it? Should Wilson not have told Brown to get out of the road on the off chance that there would be trouble? How could he possibly have known that there would be trouble? Because Brown was black?

I have seen both happen, not even with cops, just boys and men fighting in general. It does not take a slide rule to figure this out.

Fantastic! If there's one thing we can take away from your ramblings, it's that you've seen things so that makes your opinion, and your interpretation more valid than anyone elses.
