secretagent09: Are you sure about that??


USA Today is a national American daily newspaper published by the Gannett Company. It was founded by Al Neuharth on September 15, 1982.

The newspaper vies with The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times for the position of having the widest circulation of any newspaper in the United States, a distinction it had previously held since 2003.

According to the Audit Bureau of Circulations, the paper had 1.8 million copies as of March 2012 compared with The Wall Street Journal?'?s 2.1 million though the latter figure included the WSJ?'?s 400,000 paid-for, online subscribers.

USA Today remains the widest circulated print newspaper in the United States.[citation needed] from wiki


Could the USAtoday be mistaken?
It could.

Can you prove that the USAtoday is wrong?

JeanKimberley: I find it a little odd, in the general abstract concept - that this is not a discussion about guns on the streets of America.

Nationwide - I wonder how many encounters police face everyday where guns are involved? Add domestic violence and guns, include mental illness and guns and then just idiots and guns....

It might well be as the thread theme suggests - the wild west.

thumbs up Well saidhandshake Still thinkin its to confuse the masseshandshake cheers

I would accept cases on, or case history from the Missouri docket over the USA today...I'd accept Yahoo news over USA Today. lol It may have a wide circulation but it is a rag. American journalism is of very poor quality as of late, particularly a source like USA Today. It is very possible that they could be mistaken.


From The Christian Science Monitor & AP:

apparently the question is if he had a juvie record. He had not been adult loong enough to have much of an adult record, if any...lol. So it is a moot point.

CLAYTON, MO. — Lingering questions about Michael Brown could be answered Wednesday when a judge considers two media requests to release any possible juvenile records of the unarmed 18-year-old who was killed by a Missouri police officer last month.

Juvenile records are confidential in Missouri, so it's not definitively known if Brown was arrested before he legally became an adult. Police have said Brown had no adult criminal record. The family's attorney, Benjamin Crump, has refused to discuss whether Brown had a juvenile record.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch and a California online journalist have filed separate petitions in St. Louis County Family Court to determine whether Brown had past legal trouble. Both cite an overriding public right to know Brown's background after his shooting death by Ferguson officer Darren Wilson sparked more than a week of sometimes-violent protests and drew international scrutiny.

ekself: Well we have only black police in mainly black areas and it works fine. They understand each other and know where they stand with each other. If one of your kind slaps you around you don't complain that much but soon as it is someone from a different race it becomes a racial issue.
good point! I think if the cops were black in some of those fatality it might have been a totally different story !!

galrads: Ah, Contrary ...

if you listen to African Americans in the know, you will hear that the soul thing holding many African Americans back is the unwillingness on their part to break away from their black exclusive neighborhoods and move out into and integrate in diverse neighborhoods.
maybe partly cause they get judge in a negative way which is not fair!!

Michael Brown was killed on August 9th... This video was posted on July 21st, 2014. Just 20 days before Mr. Brown died ... This is one African-American's observation, opinion and instruction for future guidance... My answer to the Original Poster's question: Yes, more African-American Officers are needed in African-American communities.[/quo and kids with both parents living as a family!!

This might have been true where I live 60+ years ago. Archie Bunker types, however, are long gone today.

secretagent09: I listed his juvenile record a few pages back Felix.


yes I saw that. thanks. but someone else was disputing his record with respect to a USA Today report that he had no adult record. I was just clarifying that he had not been an adult for that long so if he had a criminal history it would most likely be a juvie record. The only reason (probably) that there was no adult record (if that is true) is because there hadn't been enough time.

also sometimes with gangs, once they reach adulthood they are more careful because they know they can get in more trouble - some even intentionally have juveniles commit the crimes for that reason (they won't really get in any trouble)

But whether or not he had a record is beside the point. It was his behavior on that day that matters in terms of the law.

Taken your comment from the
Poll: Was Michael Brown an innocent victim, murdered for no reason?

secretagent09: "lady" ????

He didn't have a weapon in his hands. That does not make him unarmed. Brown had already proved how powerful his body was when he fought with Wilson for the gun in the officers car.

You did make one statement correctly: "For me: Police Wilson did not follow the protocol correctly".

You and many others have voiced their public opinion but it doesn't count.

The opinion of the Court is what matters in the United States.

"Lady" otherwise known as Monte

So, the law is the law when it fits your personal opinion Monte.

And Brown stole a chocolate lolli pop to a younger classmate in preschool.

lifeisadream: Punish criminals for their actions.


I certainly agree with you. But of course we need to know first that a crime has been committed and that it is one that requires punishment. I wish there was a better way - like incentivizing obeying laws and good behavior. all too often though those who are law abiding get the short end of the stick in the justice system. But at least there is a due process where one has to be proven guilty.
