My Take On Ferguson MO

This is my take on Ferguson, the kid acted like an idiot. You walk into a store, acting like a thug, taking what you want, you push the owner around, then you go walking down the middle of the road like a moron! You see a cop car, instead of running, you walk up to the cop car, reach through the window, and rough the cop up. You go to run, then decide to come back. Whether he charges the cops, or stops is the argument people are making. But if your going to stop and put you hands up, why face the officer? Why not throw your hands up, keep your back to the officer and yell My BAD! and comply with the officers orders. I believe the officer, he was trying to charge him. Why do I believe the officer? Cause actions speak louder than words. The kid stole from the store, no that wasn't stealing. That was strong armed robbery. That's what its called. He walks down the middle of the road, he sees a cop, smart sob is going to run. He doesn't run, he slaps the officer around, struggles with the officer for his gun. We know that's true, the officers not going to fire the gun into his door unless there's a struggle for that gun. Yes actions speak louder than words and if he was following the law he would still be alive. A city rallying behind a criminal. Mother said, oh he was a good boy. The hell he was!! That's like saying oh I was a good boy. Burn a city down, disturb the nation for what? An officer who was forced to shoot because this kid had no respect for the law, no respect for the store owner and no respect for that officer. No respect for his fellow man. Cause if he treated that officer and store owner like that you can imagine what would have happened had you stopped and asked him to please move out of the road. He probably would have snatched you out of the car and taken it. He had the notion that he could walk into a store and take what he wanted. Thought he had the authority to walk down the middle of the road like he owned it. Thought the law didn't apply to him. Now the parents want to speak out, T.V. time ect. Had they raised that kid to respect others, not strong arm rob a store and follow the law, then I'd be on their side. But that kid had no respect for anyone or anything. He was chaos, and even with his death rallied more chaos, and that's my take on it.
Regretfully,
