So, I'm betting what side of his arms the bullets entered on is going to tell the story. If you're holding your hands up near your head to fight, chances are the bullets would enter the forward facing sides of your arms in a fighting stance, which would actually be the outward facing edge. If you're holding your hands above your head completely, the bullets would actually enter the undersides of your arms instead of the forward edges. Unless for some reason his hands were up like a football ref calling a touchdown which doesn't make sense.

As someone who flew in to ferguson to show solidarity with the protest and is currently sitting in a hotel room 3 miles away, very few of the people I have talked to out there for mike brown are interested in conflict with the police

I reckon somebody who shows up at 9pm is probably more interested in seeing a scuffle than supporting the cause. But that's just me.

I'm not sure if this is ok or not, it probably doesn't matter since the thread is going a mile a minute, but if you're interested in financially contributions to help out the protesters, the National Lawyer's Guild is asking for funds to help its mass protest defense work, which is excellent. If you seen people wearing neon green hats they are Legal Observers taking notes on police conduct for all the reasons you can imagine it might be important for a bunch of friendly lawyers to have detailed information about a police coup. They are on the ground in Ferguson providing direct legal support to protesters. I have worked with them in the past and have friends on their way out to Ferguson now.

If you lined up the arms a little bit differently, they're basically right next to the bullet that hit his head.

It is shameful and disgusting that the protestors of Ferguson MO would steep so low as to use women and children as human shields. Looks like they'll win the war of public opinion on the bodies of their own families.

I have a job but took time off (unpaid). I'm also a documentary filmmaker so I spent the last few days interviewing protestors, witnesses, and the protest events themselves. Marched in a solidarity parade, bumped into a man and a little girl on his shoulders, turned out to be Jesse Jackson.

Apparently the dead body is from a car accident?
