Since Daily News operative Mike Lupica, when he writes about anything but sports (and often then, as well), is nothing but a DNC-bot, this means that the dictator calling himself “Barack Obama” seeks to railroad white Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson, and has sent bots like Lupica their talking points, in order to prepare the ground for the lynching to come.
Mike Wilson is Trayvon Martin II.
Lupica: It’s hard to believe Officer Darren Wilson had to kill Michael Brown to stop him
Wilson’s actions look similar to that of George Zimmerman, the wannabe cop with a gun who decided his life was in danger and shot dead Trayvon Martin. But Wilson should have known better. Somehow there has to be a way in this country that shooting to stop an unarmed man, no matter how menacing you think he is, how big he is, doesn’t mean shooting to kill.

In the end, even if you believe Officer Darren Wilson’s version of things about the late Michael Brown looking like a “demon” in the last moments of Brown’s life, it is hard to believe that Wilson had to shoot him dead on the street in Ferguson, Mo. It is why you look at Wilson now and see him as Officer George Zimmerman.
Zimmerman, of course, was a wannabe cop with a gun who decided his life was in danger because of a Florida teenager named Trayvon Martin one night in February 2012, before the 17-year-old in the hooded sweatshirt ended up dead, a gun winning again.
There should have been no encounter between Zimmerman, who ended up being tried and acquitted, and Trayvon Martin because Zimmerman should have left the kid alone that night. Zimmerman didn’t know better because he was just another idiot with a gun, thinking he was a cop in a cop show on television instead of a neighborhood watch volunteer.
[George Zimmerman was a dutiful, diligent man whose neighbors asked him to protect them, and protect them, he did.]
But Officer Darren Wilson could have known better and should have known better, even if the grand jury in Missouri decides not to indict him for anything. Somehow there has to be a way in this country that shooting to stop an unarmed man, no matter how menacing you think he is, how big he is, doesn’t mean shooting to kill.
[This is the sort of fantasy talk we get from racist blacks all the time.]
What you always come back to in this case is why Wilson couldn’t have managed to stop Brown without blowing his head off [no, you don’t], whether Brown had already fought Wilson for his gun in Wilson’s car or not.
This was a very big target for Wilson, in broad daylight in Ferguson, Brown weighing almost 300 pounds, as big as a defensive tackle in the NFL. Why did any of the second flurry of shots from Wilson’s Sig Sauer have to be kill shots? [Because Officer Wilson was seeking to stop Brown. That’s how you stop someone charging you, and trying to murder you. And that’s how cops are trained to shoot in a life-or-death situation. Lupica is clearly implying that Mike Brown had a license to kill, and that Officer Darren Wilson had a duty to die.]
Brown, according to Wilson’s grand jury testimony, made a “grunting, like an aggravated sound” as he prepared to charge Wilson after moving away from the SUV. Then, according to Wilson and various witnesses, Brown did charge, with a clenched fist. That fist, and his size, were his weapons. Wilson had the gun, started shooting, here we are.

An indictment would not have been a conviction of Darren Wilson for what happened that day. There just would have been a trial, and should have been a trial, with cameras in the room, so the rest of the country could decide if Michael Brown had to die this way in the street.
I asked an NYPD street cop Tuesday why so many shots at Michael Brown.
“Generally,” he said, “it’s based on whether you need to shoot to stop someone, not the number of shots. Many times a cop has no idea how many rounds he’s fired.”
It would not have made Wilson a monster if he had been told to stand trial, whether he was charged with manslaughter or negligent homicide. But he should have been made to stand trial.
[No, he shouldn’t have, because he committed no crime, aside from breathing while white. Mike Brown, on the other hand, had committed multiple crimes: Felony strong-arm robbery, assault on a police officer, and attempted murder of a policeman.]
None of this justifies what has happened in Ferguson since the decision, or across the country, all the way to protests [sic] in New York City, and the ridiculous decision in this city to close bridges because of the protests here. And because it was a white cop shooting an unarmed [sic; he already admitted that Brown’s body was his weapon, not to mention that he sought to seize Officer
Wilson’s weapon, and murder him with it.] African-American in Missouri doesn’t somehow make it the same as a rookie cop named Peter Liang shooting Akai Gurley in a darkened stairwell in East New York, Brooklyn, last week.
Only hustlers like Assemblyman-elect Charles Barron seem to think that, as Barron continues to act like Al Sharpton on training wheels, as if Barron wants to be famous as much as he wants justice for Akai Gurley.
There were no easy answers or solutions for that grand jury, because there are never easy answers, for any of these shootings, except for this answer: No one needed to die [wrong! Mike Brown needed to die.], even if you give all honor and benefit of the doubt to any police officer asked to work hard and dangerous streets in this country, and have to make decisions about life and death in the kind of moment that changes everything.
We know now what witnesses saw, or thought they saw that day with Wilson and with Brown. We know that Wilson says that Brown told him, “You are too much of a p---y to shoot me,” after Wilson had told him he was prepared to do just that. Then Wilson did shoot and kept shooting and then Michael Brown was dead, and once more we were reminded, as if we needed reminding, why race in America is the third rail and always will be.
Wilson clearly had decided his life was in danger. We will never know about that, just that in the next moments on that street, more than enough room for tragedy, that Michael Brown was the one whose life was in danger, because a real cop who acted the way a fake one did with Trayvon Martin was the one with the gun. Standing his ground.
[The George Zimmerman case had nothing at all to with Florida’s “Stand Your Ground,” but the DNC and the black supremacists were obsessed with getting them repealed, so they manufactured that talking point. Now, Lupica is dusting it off, and saying that Officer Wilson was standing his ground, rather than engaging in self-defense? After putting down Charles Barron, now Lupica is sounding as stupid as Barron.]

A former police and crime reporter named Mike Brake wrote at National Review Online:
"Police reporters and cops know what policemen and some criminals also know; that a cop is always fighting one-handed because he has to protect his gun."
Anyone wonder how much street experience Lupica has?
