How many media reports have you heard with the word "ALLEGED" before the "strong arm robbery" bit?
Even James Egan Holmes had the word "alleged" used in every report about his mass murder through to his guilty plea.
But a dead black kid is never involved in an ALLEGED strong arm robbery. Can't have anybody believing these are only allegations.

the community was trying to heal the wounds. It was a provocation against the advice of Holder, who the GOP and Libertarians hate, so the chief with the Confederate flag didn't pay him any mind! Why should he listen to the first black AG?
No one with a cooler head, not the Governor Governor or the other law enforcement agency were told it would be released. It made the locals protest more. Easy to understand, since it was a racist diversion to get the national mind off the killing and then to justify it.
At the beginning the chief said Wilson knew nothing about it, and it was not a factor in the killing. Yet they put it out, to incite more anger and insult the life of the dead teenager.
The 'alleged' term is used by media afraid of being sued, or so they say. But they aren't being sued for outright lies about PBO, or civilians without power or means, so it's not fear.
It's not the news, facts or the slightest truth, it's all a product their owners are selling. In this case, just enough to infuriate those already hurt and angry, and to go with the 'all blacks are criminals' meme, thus:
'Buy more guns! Vote GOP! Shoot 'em before they get you!'
FFS, if blacks wanted to 'off' every white person in this country, they could have done it years ago, but no, they only want 'Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness' that others enjoy.
Why is this not embraced with love, open arms and respect, as the media did Tea Party/Libertarians?
Because peace ain't good for their bottom line, nor is Equality. Their twisted version of America and the Bill of Rights, is all they have.
