I don't know dude. A lot of places actually do read their citizen complaints and if a pattern builds up against someone, discipline through suspension of pay after a verbal and written warning is pretty common. Firing comes after those.
Then some lovely rural dept with no applicants takes them and they don't carr about complaints because everyone is related. poo poo sucks.

Do you have evidence or proof backing this up? Because I can link you tons of studies about the way police ignore complaints.

Seems like it. There's 6 shots fired, then a pause, then 4 more.

Brown was shot 6 times, so he was hit at least twice before the pause in the shooting. It looks like the first group of 6 shots fired were fired at Brown as he was running away/standing still.

Presumably the PD also knows how many shots were fired due to casings on the ground and/or the number of rounds left in Wilson's magazine -- not sure we'll ever see that information though.

This is huge, if the verification holds up. Just from the audio recordings, with a grouping of six shots then four or five more, we now know with certainty that it was an execution. Brown was hit at least once, then a long pause, and the officer then finished him off.

By the police's own narrative, the officer fired at Michael Brown as he was running away, and we now know through math that he had to have been hit as he fled. The idea that he then turned on the spot and charged at the officer, after being shot one or more times, is patently absurd and anyone still advocating for that line of thinking is either an idiot or a racist.

The audio serves as further confirmation of the multiple eyewitnesses: Michael Brown was killed on the ground as he attempted to surrender by an officer using monstrously excessive force against no credible threat.

No, he's saying they have a hosed up culture that sweeps psych issues under the rug because it isn't "hardcore" and they manifest as the particularly violent brand of power abuse that cop culture encourages. It's like how abused kids are more likely to abuse their own kids except nobody chooses to be an abused kid. It's not as charitable as you are making it out to be.

You can lead a cop to his insurance card but you can't convince him to go talk to someone about his violent ideations when all of his bros brag about shoving nightsticks up people's asses during a traffic stop and think he's a traitor when he doesn't laugh.

UPDATE 2:

This latest update is from Charles ‘Chuck’ Johnson’s website GotNews:

[...] There are also serious questions of racial equality around the release of deceased juveniles’ records in the state of Missouri.

Got News’s lawyer, John C. Burns, compared the suit to Smith v. Harold’s Supermarket, a 1984 case whose facts seem eerily to the Ferguson shooting.

William L. Halstead, a white, 18-year-old stole a packet of cigarettes. A security guard beat him so hard he broke his neck, became paralyzed, and died 19 days later. Halstead’s juvenile arrest record was released as part of a wrongful death suit filed by his family, much to their protestation.

It went to the appellate court held and then stopped. Later the Missouri Supreme Court adopted the appellate court’s reasoning in a case in 1990 (State v. Mahurin).

Apparently, the records of dead blacks cannot be released but those of dead whites may be—at least according to the St. Louis County.

What could be more racist?

Much more here, including Johnson’s response/challenge; his lawsuit to release Michael Brown juvenile record to the FOIA denial.

Of note: Michael ‘Mike’ Brown’s DOB is 5/20/1996. At the time of his death he had only been an adult (18) for around 2 1/2 months.

UPDATE 3:

We go to court again tomorrow to get #MichaelBrown juvie records. #Ferguson

UPDATE 5:

A hearing is set for September 3 (2014) before Judge Ellen Siwak.

Food for thought:

Mike Brown is 18 with “no adult criminal record” Why not just say “has no arrest history”? #Ferguson — Fred Sanford (@FredSanford13) August 15, 2014

Well, I thought the shooting happened at 12:03pm? It's a bit close on the time there, so maybe he started it right after, after all...

However, if the gun discharged while in the SUV, a lot of the sound may have been absorbed by the interior of the vehicle. He only had a window open, so the story goes.
