The mainstream media narrative has Michael Brown portrayed as a “Gentle Giant,” who fell victim to the Legacy of Racial Discrimination at the hands of racist police officer Darren Wilson.
Wilson, so the story goes, deliberately ended Brown’s 18 year sojurn on Earth for no particular reason and without any legal justification. According to the goofy media, Brown was an innocent lad who paid with his life for being black and grossly obese.
One wonders, however, at how bright was the young Giant?
He was, we are told, just a couple of days away from entering college and with it the opportunity to guarantee himself a place in middle class society.
His future seemed bright, especially upon completion of his education.
Why then, did this gentle soul choose to risk that bright future for a few cigars that he stole from a store? Why risk serious charges of theft and battery for pushing around the store owner?
Michael’s intellect could also be questioned by his decision to flee the scene of his crime and end up in a confrontation with police. Surely he must have known that his theft would be reported to the police who would be hot on his Gentle trail?
Furthermore, refusing to listen to a police officer and attempting to wrestle control over the officer’s gun suggest that the Gentle Giant was not really all that ready for college.
Michael Brown’s death was an awful tragedy that should NOT be made into a circus by crazed politicians and advocates!

For years, John lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, the very liberal sanctuary city which protects, rather than prosecutes, certain favored criminals. John escaped the Bay Area in May and now lives in Pine Grove California where conservative values are still in vogue.
