    Similar provocateur's and anarchist's found at the occupy protests. Simple solution being negotiated today....peaceful protesters stop at 5pm. Anyone else the shows up after 5....gets what they have coming.

    I remember Kent state like it was yesterday. That picture of the girl kneeling over one of the dead is etched in my brain.

    BREAKING REPORT: Officer Darren Wilson Suffered “Orbital Blowout Fracture to Eye Socket” During Mike Brown Attack

    Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, August 19, 2014, 10:00 AM

    The Gateway Pundit can now confirm from two local St. Louis sources that police Officer Darren Wilson suffered facial fractures during his confrontation with deceased 18 year-old Michael Brown. Officer Wilson clearly feared for his life during the incident that led to the shooting death of Brown. This was after Michael Brown and his accomplice Dorian Johnson robbed a local Ferguson convenience store.


    Local St. Louis sources said Wilson suffered an “orbital blowout fracture to the eye socket.” This comes from a source within the District Attorney’s office and confirmed by the St. Louis County Police.

    A blowout fracture is a fracture of one or more of the bones surrounding the eye and is commonly referred to as an orbital floor fracture. (AAPOS)

    This comes after St. Louis Post-Dispatch reporter tweeted out last night that a dozen local witnesses confirmed Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson’s version of the Brown shooting story.

    Shit.........

    If only the public realized the extremely strict training, testing especially to be a cop, or how the life of a cop with kids is not so easy at all. You can't pay a Cop enough $$$ to dodge bullets, let alone take one.

    My own passed brother was a LASD. He injured his back chasing a perp firing an AK-47 at him. He jumped a 6 ft. block wall, which had a 12 foot drop on the other side of said wall. 6'5" and 255lbs. Wearing 65lbs of armament/vest/ammo/guns/knives/ et al. He hurt his back enough to blow out 4 lumbar discs...

    the sad thing about all this, is after 3 back surgeries, with the installation of 3 lag bolts, (get this-bolts were 5/16s in diameter, mine are only 1/8" diameter, his bolts looked like the shit I saw in AC installations). Anywho- he had a fatal heart attack as a result of being released in shock from his last surgery. Only 37 yrs old by one week, he left behind 2 angelic kids. His Wife also a LASD, was hit head on a year later by a drunk driver, she broke every bone in her body, and is now a vegetable, and will never walk, talk, et al.

    Life's a bitch until you step in a Cops shoes, then its a living Hellish Nightmare.....

    Bless the Cops in Fergy.....!

    One last note: a Cop in a disabled condition in Caly, has to go to Doc's who can only refer these men and women, to Surgeon's who are so f'kng old, they shouldn't be practicing at all. In fact my brother's surgeon, was the only one he was allowed to work on him.

    The surgeon, a retired doc, who only took Workmen's Comp patients.

    Now isn't that special, a Cop can only see a WC POS Doc, who should not be practicing at all.

    In other words, Welfare recipients get better health care than injured cops in caly at least, prob in other states too. A f'kng shame, Firemen get the same too....go fkng figure....!

    I don't see the connection with Zimmerman. That guy was just asshole. If he had listened to the cops & obeyed the orders to stand down nothing happens. Because I've got to be honest, if theres some nut following me I'm going to do one of two things, either I'm going to stop & confront him & ask him what his problem is or I'm going to kick the shit out of him & ask questions later. Don't get me wrong I know the kid Martin was no angel but Zimmerman was the major dick in that story.

    Here's some new shit from Ferguson....https://twitter.com/ExploringBird/timelines/501790399854149633

    Yes it is a tragedy....one that changed my life forever, not for the better either......a great kid who was 14 yrs my younger. My only brother with 6 sisters. He meant the world to me. In all honesty when he was 8 my parents got divorced and he came to live with me and my wife and 3 young boys. My brother was more a Son to me, as said, a Parent never gets over the grief of the loss of a child....!

    Me, I cry ever fkng week, as I miss that boy who I spoke with every single day of his life, including but an hour prior to his heart attack. I was waiting for him to come and pick me up, to help when the phone rang, I thought it was him saying, I'm on my way. Instead it was the LASD who came to my house, the very moment I was supposed to be with him. To give me the very bad news.

    His wife, there's a helluva story there too, which I will reserve for now.....

    Now excuse me, I gotta literally go bawl my brains out........seriously,..

    ...tote and I were not talking about the shooters involved in both cases. It was about two guys with guns who confronted two kids and got their asses kicked, got scared and shot the two kids. Both of the youngsters were initially portrayed as angels but as more facts came out, that was not at all the case.
