the cop to answer.

Dorian Johnson can't speak to the guy's state of mind - only he can.

I dunno where he is though.

No one seems to know.

i'm confused by this question, you seem to be making some assumptions that I'm not making.

What have I assumed wrong?

is that he was there. Therefore why didn't he shoot Johnson, who was also there?

Myself, I'm assuming that the reason he shot Brown is because of the fight they were in. He was in a fight with Brown, but not with Johnson. I guess I could have answered your question that way.

He had no more bullets to murder Dorian with.

Not like the old cowboy days where you count the shots...

Mike ran down the street.

...not part of the incident that provoked the cop to fire...

So Dorian hid, while Brown continued defiantly down the street?

But to date - I don't believe the Ferguson PD has released that.

I think we should wait, not speculate, and see what the Ferguson PD has . . .

Oh bother! They are never gonna release the f*cking thing.

Johnson said Mike ran by him as he went behind the vehicle. Just going on memory of a Johnson interview.

The cop told them to get on the sidewalk
Johnson told him they were almost at his house
Something happened that caused the cop to grab Brown by his shirt and pull him towards the vehicle interior
Johnson heard the cop say something like "I'm going to shoot you"
A shot was fired from the interior of the vehicle
Both Johnson and Brown ran, Johnson ducking behind a car, Brown running down the street
Johnson didn't get shot because he hid behind a car and whatever happened in the exchange between Wilson and Brown had Wilson laser-focused on Brown.

I call BS on the claim that Brown was charging towards Wilson because it's quite obvious both were in flight mode intent on saving their lives. I'm really curious what the gun powder residue tests show on Browns clothing.

I've wondered from the start if the cop approached them with his car door ajar - either ready to pounce out - use for cover, - but it got forced back at him - and conked him in the head - and really pissed him off...

Ever get good whack in the head - or bust you shin bad - sometimes you just want to break something!!! Sometimes - you do!

After the cop backed up and almost ran into them, he tried to open the door, but the boys were too close and it bounced back on him. That's when he grabbed Mike Brown.

He unloaded into one kid and that satisfied his bloodlust?

car. He probably never saw Johnson again. I think it happened a lot like the "road rage" incidents. One driver does something that offends another driver. The second driver will do anything even drive through a bunch of people just to get "even" with the first driver.
