How we KNOW that Wilson was lying...

Bugsy McGurk

President
He testified that he repeatedly shouted at Brown to stop, get down on the ground, etc., including doing so in the time interval between his two major volleys of shots toward the end of their confrontation.

Listen to the audio recording of the shooting. You hear no shouting at all. Further, the interval between the volleys (when 10 shots in total were fired) is very short - there's just no way that he shouted more warnings to Brown during that interval.

In short, that Wilson lied is undeniable.
 
They sound pretty far away--I didn't hear any other voices either--except the voice-over.

Far away? They sounded pretty close to me - the gun shot sounds are quite loud, but we hear no shouting at all.

How about the second part - Wilson's claim that he shouted more warnings in the very short interval between the volleys. Credible?

Cops will lie under oath about a traffic violation. I mentioned that to a lawyer once with some outrage in my voice. He laughed out loud. "Cops lie under oath all day every day! That's why you always need a lawyer. Judges don't mind them doing it." (Paraphrased from memory.)

And the so-called prosecutors running the so-called grand jury put Wilson on and just let him spin his fairy tales without any cross-examination.

A travesty.

It wasn't a trial, it was a hearing before a grand jury. Everyone gets a hearing before a jury trial. It's part of the process.

Do they completely skip civics in indoctrination camp?

I'll confess I am not up on the details of the incident, the prosecutors' behavior or the GJ's deliberations. I'm apathetic about this one.

I'm highly prejudiced against bullies and can't fake a tear for them.

I try to pick my fights better than the civil rights activists sometimes do.

It was a kangaroo court designed to ensure that Wilson wasn't indicted. A sham and a travesty.

You Pugs just LOVED it !

This issue does not depend on whether someone thinks Wilson's actions were justified. The process was a joke.
 
A grand jury proceeding is a court proceeding.

You sure don't know much, which doesn't stop you from ignorantly yammering.

It's an assessment to determine if there is sufficient evidence for a trial. Everyone who commits a major crime gets one, usually it's before a judge, not a grand jury.

You would have learned this in grade school had the education system not failed you so completely.

I DO believe that this has been explained to Bugsy a half dozen times or so, to no avail. I'm thinking he's hopeless.... :rolleyes::D
