The "robbery" is alleged as the video, if you watch all of it, appears to show him paying for his cigarillos, and the scuffle appears to be an argument over the price. At the absolute worst, it's shoplifting, not a "strong arm robbery" (nice work on parroting Fox News exactly; you make it clear where you get your news from). The store owner never reported a robbery; it was called in by a customer who witnessed the scuffle. The store owner was a bit befuddled when the cops showed up demanding the video, which they didn't demand until after Michael Brown had been shot dead in the street for jaywalking. But carry on with your character assassination of a young black man. You're in fine company; the NYTimes did quite a dance yesterday, trying to make the average teenager into a thug and the cop who killed him (who grew up in a criminal household and started his career on a police force so corrupt the city disbanded it and had the county take over) into a victim. It was astounding.

Good grief, if arguing with a bodega owner was a death penalty offense, half the people in NYC would be dead.
Apparently Obama thinks the kid's life was worth much more than the reporter's life. He sent 3 people to the kid's funeral and zero to the report's funeral.

It wasn't just shoplifting. He physically pushed the owner of the store. That is a "strong-arm robbery". And that's not why he got shot. He got shot because he assaulted the police officer and he charged the officer while the officer was pointing the gun at him and telling him to freeze.

You have gone so far to the left that now even the liberal NYTimes is too far right for you.

You are the one assassinating character. You are assassinating the character of the police officer (who has a perfect record).

Nobody is assassinating the character of Michael Brown. The truth is simply coming out now. We heard all these lies about this innocent kid being shot in the back. Now we are hearing the truth and you define that as "character assassination.
