On August 19, 2014 a young African American man by the name of Michael Brown, was shot and killed. Young Michael was 18 and in his way to college, not knowing that the tables were about to turn. The officer that murdred Michael is a 26 year old Caucasian male named Darren Wilson. At first it was known to be said that Michael and his friend we involved in a robbery right around the time the shooting happned, but it was announced that officer Wilson knew nothing about the robbery. So why did he shoot him you ask? Later during the investigation Michaels friend spoke up and decided to tell what happned. Doran Johnson (Michaels' s friend that was with him) said they they were simply walking in the middle of the street where there were no cars, having a conversation. Wilson drove up and used profanity to tell them to get out of the street. Dorian told Wilson that their destination was coming up and Wilson proceeded to drive away. Wilson turned around as if he was about to hit the young men and opened his door, which rebounded off of them and hit Wilson back which made him angry. The first shot went off and Michael was hit. As Michael and Dorian started to run, Michael was hit again. After the 2nd shot Michael put his hands up to surrender but Wilson fired several more shots killing Michael. His friend who was hiding under a car ran home to his family and called the police. Also this Is not the 1st time people have had a horrible experience with Wilson. One girl says that one month ago that Wilson used profanity against her and threatened to draw his weapon against her as well during and experience where she was moved and was trying to treat her eyes. She too was African American.
I don't want to say that this was a racial thing but if someone put their hands up to surrender why would you keep shooting? This is very similar to the Travon Martin case and he was African American as well. It saddens me that non of these human beings are here today to tell what happned and have yet to receive the justice they deserve. I don't think it's fair at all that Michaels family only knows so little information. His family deserves closer. Michaels deserves to rest in peace and receive justice!!!!
