I live in Missouri, and from the Ozarks up to Kansas City where I have lived cops are told by their commanding officers that they are not to even get out of their car during a routine traffic stop if they are alone. They are to radio for another officer, and wait for them to show up before approaching the vehicle.
I would find it hard pressed that a place like the St. Louis area where the crime rate is higher would not have a similar protection plan for their officers.

Excuse me...... Aren't you the guy in the thread called Re: Crimes of the Elite Against Children
Post 154, who reported someone to the mods for false allegations & got his thread shut down?
Mind you, I'm not too crazy about what this fellow yer blasting has said & done either; but to say what you just posted above is indeed a false allegation, is it not?
What do you have to say about this? Is it ok for you to do it? Who's to blame here?

"Prosecutors plan to begin presenting evidence in the shooting death of Michael Brown to a grand jury Wednesday morning, the county prosecutor’s office said Tuesday.
'We know this is of interest to a lot of people around the country,' Edward Magee, spokesman for St. Louis County Prosecutor Robert McCulloch, told The Washington Post. 'We’re going to do this fairly and also attempt to do it in a timely manner.'
It is unclear what charges prosecutors might seek or whether Darren Wilson, the Ferguson police officer who shot and killed Michael Brown, will ultimately be charged.
The 12 members of a St. Louis County grand jury will meet in secret to determine whether the evidence presented by prosecutors is sufficient to charge someone with a crime.
McCulloch met with his lead prosecutors Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. to review the status of the investigation and the evidence that has been gathered so far. Meanwhile, in Ferguson, protesters and some elected officials have been calling on McCulloch to step aside as the prosecutor and have an independent special prosecutor handle the case involving Wilson.
In a grand jury investigation, a prosecutor alone determines whether to recommend specific criminal charges be brought. The jury can ask questions to determine whether the evidence warrants the charges, while no outside lawyers for the victim or the defendant can be present or ask questions.
McCulloch’s office confirmed that they have been in contact with an attorney for Wilson and received a full statement of Wilson’s version of events on the day that Brown died.
The FBI and St. Louis County police have conducted some joint interviews with witnesses who were uncomfortable talking to police alone, officials said. The FBI has also canvassed for witnesses in the Ferguson neighborhood Saturday and Sunday, which resulted in several new interviews Monday, and McCulloch has copies of those statements."

Local St. Louis sources said Wilson suffered an “orbital blowout fracture to the eye socket.” This comes from a source within the Prosecuting Attorney’s office and confirmed by the St. Louis County Police.

Ferguson Riots: North County Business Owners (Some Armed) Survey the Damage.
In the wake of the police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown in disputed circumstances last week, rioters burned down a convenience store and looted sporting-goods and auto-supply stores, among other businesses.
This completely unjustifiable lawlessness is waved off by the Left as, in the typical cliché, the boiling over of “rage.”
Now the store owners are becoming enraged as they are completely innocent and watching their family's livelihoods get looted off and burned down by laughing criminals.

Police officers shot and killed a man brandishing a knife in north St. Louis, Mo., on Monday, police said, just eight kilometres from Ferguson where protests have raged since the deadly police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown.
St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson confirmed the suspect was dead, and said an investigation is ongoing. No police officers were injured, he said.
Dotson said officers gave the apparently agitated 23-year-old man verbal commands to drop the knife, but he did not listen. Dotson said the suspect yelled “kill me now” and approached the officers before he was shot.
A large crowd gathered at the scene, many shouting "hands up, don't shoot!" — a chant that has become commonplace at the Michael Brown protests. After about two hours, the crowds dispersed.

*UPDATE* BREAKING REPORT – Dorian Johnson Recants Media Statement ? – Tells Authorities “Big Mike” Did Try For Officers Gun – Grand Jury Charges “Unlikely”… *UPDATE* – But Special Prosecutor Might
From the comment section in above link:
From a fairly reliable source, who lives in the area.(he was talking about Sundance “him” since this person I know has some connections I thought he might know the funeral home’s name).
” Well something else for him to look into is that Dorian Johnson the kid who was with Brown and started the lies of the hands up, has taken a plea deal. His involvement in the apparent robbery that resulted in browns death and all the riots and damage can be charged to him. He allegedly has confirmed that brown attacked Wilson and charged the cop and laughed at him for getting his ass whooped by a kid. He was intent on taking out the cop”

Well here's the thing. There is the problem of the amount of shots used. Now, I wouldn't be surprised if we found out that there was more than marijuana found through the autopsy, because four of the six shots, while not lethal, should have taken him down in some way. However, if the excessive force was due to the officer's nerves (and who could blame him, his eye socket was just broken) there may still be charges bending, though most likely the highest they could charge would be Voluntary Manslaughter (Or Man 1). We will have to see what happens at the Grand Jury, and who is being charged, since that hasn't been revealed yet.
It takes a lot to break the bones around your eye.
Bet its painful, esspecially when fear of another attack is imminent and even coming at you.
You are in pain inflicted by a large thug kid, who is now charging you....what do you do?
Just die like the sob white guy you are????? We all know white people deserve to be brutally killed...because they are white and anything a thug who is black who just commited another act of violence a few minutes earlier, anything he does is because he is, a victim. Poor black kid all filled with rage because of evil white people....
as ridiculous as that sounds, that is EXACTLY what the left believes!
If it was not so sick, you would have to laugh.
All of the damage and looting and people hurt in those riots? You on the left made that happen.

I thoroughly disagree. The Left did not do this. The Right is not on a witch hunt. Two men chose crime. They chose to rob that store. Michael chose to attack that police officer, allegedly. Certain people chose to loot those stores. Certain people chose to aggravate the police. The Police chose to use militarized vehicles and firearms as a tactic to reduce the tension. The Governor chose to put in a curfew, and then lift it two days later. Don't make bigger picture statements, when it comes down to choices. No one is to blame, except for those that chose their actions.

No way I would convict that police officer of anything if I was on that jury looking at the evidence I've seen so far. I'd publicly call for the city to give him a civic medal and a promotion after he was either acquitted of ALL charges or I hung the jury forcing a retrial and tell anyone that doesn't like it to go pound sand.
