re: #555 lawhawk

Still, if Brown was intent to surrender, and witnesses corroborate that claim, then why did Wilson continue firing, including the death blow. Once Brown signaled his intention to surrender, each shot fired after that was excessive force.

The first shot was probably excessive. I never said I believe he was justified, just that I don’t believe he was a wanna be judge dredd. He fucked up…bad…and he should pay the price, I just don’t understand why people seem to need to make him into some sort of cold blooded assassin.
