Michael Brown wasn't an innocent, so let's not make him out to be. When he was stealing those cigars from the market, the very minute he turned to shove the employee or owner, he turned the theft into a robbery, an entirely different class of crime. Force was now involved from this imposing young man, but for some reason, the media wants to paint him as an innocent, young man who was gunned down. This same force was displayed and utilized on the officer who shot him. Rules and laws are the same for all of us, so don't make up your own rules.
