Illness you never stole something, hucked a rock through a window, drank a beer underage, smoked illegal substances and on and on?? Well in my case I did so I guess I am a dirt bag and should be shot as well.

There are no facts that the kid went after his gun. Kid was no where near his gun when he got shot.

And I say it for the 100th time, there is no proof kid stole the cigars or that he was in store.

I agree with Charles Barkley:

Charles Barkley recently called Ferguson looters "scumbags," praised police officers who work in black neighborhoods, and said he supports the decision made by the grand jury not to indict officer Darren Wilson in the Michael Brown shooting.

During an interview on 97.5 The Fanatic in Philadelphia on Tuesday, the day after the Ferguson decision was announced, host Mike Missanelli asked Barkley about it and why "black America" doesn't trust the ruling.

His response surprised some listeners.

Recommended: Race equality in America: How far have we come?

"The true story came out from the grand jury testimony," Barkley said, adding that he was made aware of "key forensic evidence, and several black witnesses that supported Officer Darren Wilson’s story..." He continued, "I can’t believe anything I hear on television anymore. And, that’s why I don’t like talking about race issues with the media anymore, because they (the media) love this stuff, and lead people to jump to conclusions. The media shouldn’t do that. They never do that when black people kill each other. "

He also called those who rioted after the decision was announced "scumbags," and said "There is no excuse for people to be out there burning down people's businesses, burning down police cars."

And in a marked departure from other prominent black leaders who have questioned tactics used by officers and, in some cases, accused officers of racial profiling and outright racism, Barkley supported police officers, especially those who work in black neighborhoods.

“[W]e have to be really careful with the cops, because if it wasn’t for the cops we would be living in the Wild, Wild West in our neighborhoods," he said. "We can’t pick out certain incidentals that don’t go our way and act like the cops are all bad.... Do you know how bad some of these neighborhoods would be if it wasn't for the cops?”

His comments are in sharp contrast with those made by other black leaders on the Ferguson case. Rev. Al Sharpton and civil rights activist Jesse Jackson have both criticized the Ferguson decision and racial profiling by police. President Obama is scheduled to hold meetings with civil rights groups Monday on law enforcement and how to rebuild trust in black communities.

Other black athletes have also reacted to the Ferguson decision. Prior to Sunday’s kickoff against the Oakland Raiders, St. Louis Rams football players Stedman Bailey, Tavon Austin, Jared Cook, Chris Givens and Kenny Britt entered the field with their hands up, referring to the "hands up, don't shoot," rallying cry of Michael Brown supporters.

This PBS Newshour chart shows that a majority of grand jury witnesses agreed that Michael Brown reached into Officer Wilson's police car, but a majority also testified that Michael Brown had his hands up when he was fatally shot.

Barkley immediately drew praise from conservative media and bloggers. "Charles Barkley speaks the truth about Ferguson, calls out the media, and it’s EPIC," wrote Young Conservatives. "Former NBA star Charles Barkley slams Ferguson rioters, leftstream media and Obama," said the Tea Party News Network.

While Barkley's comments are a departure from that of some of his black colleagues, they shouldn't be surprising to those who know Barkley.

In 2013, Barkley famously said he agreed with the George Zimmerman acquittal in the shooting of Trayvon Martin. In July of last year, a Florida jury found that neighborhood watch leader Zimmerman, who is white and Hispanic, was not guilty in the shooting death of unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin.

"That’s probably not a popular opinion among most people. But just looking at the evidence, I agreed with the verdict," he told CNBC host Maria Bartiromo on CNBC's Closing Bell about the Zimmerman verdict.

Twitter lit up with reaction to Barkley's comments, both angry and supportive.

Charles Barkley is the modern day Uncle Tom and he just made every virulent Klan and hate group in America cheer.— Jeff Gauvin (@JeffersonObama) July 18, 2013

Charles Barkley is the laughing stock of the sports world....dumb as shit and well trained by his slave masters— Jeff Gauvin (@JeffersonObama) July 18, 2013

Charles Barkley with a measured and thoughtful reaction to the #Zimmerman verdict.— Brian Adam Jones (@bjones) July 18, 2013

Pretty intelligent comments by Charles Barkley on CNBC. On several topics, actually, including the Zimmerman trial.— Tom Getz (@Getztowondering) July 18, 2013

Barkley is honest man. Have to respect his take on the #Zimmerman case and on racism.— Richard Golding (@24kt_GLD) July 18, 2013

Regardless of the feedback he gets on his Ferguson comments, Barkley made it clear on the Philadelphia radio show that he will continue to share his thoughts on the Ferguson decision and on race in America, telling listeners, "I ain't shutting up and I ain't backing down."

Go to the Whippin Post thread on Ferguson, and check out the link on the forensic evidence that shows powder burns on the dead kid's finger, meaning he was reaching for the officer's gun when the gun went off, while there was that struggle at the car. After that, the cop knew there would be an altercation, he did not know if the kid had a gun in his pants or not. Also read the testimony of the officer as to what went on and what the kid said to him provoking the escalation of the altercation.

There simply has to be a better person to rally around than Michael Brown....the kid had just robbed a store and beaten up a clerk on video and was out looking for trouble!He found it!It is unfortunate that any 18 year old should be killed but this kid made his own bed.Then his step father goes out calling on people to burn the place down?Sorry,the only way one can join in the orgy of violence and anger this case brought on is if one had and has an agenda that goes beyond this case.....you do not burn,loot and destroy innocent peoples businesses,period!The behavior following the verdict is disgraceful and should not be tolerated by anyone who believes in a civil society.It is strange that somehow the agitators never seem to have any concern or sympathy for the hard working,honest business owners in the community?

Serious question - protest what exactly? The protests regarding the Ferguson incident are related to a sense of injustice regarding the grand jury decision. The suspects in the Short Hills Mall incident have been arrested, charged, indicted and are heading to trial and by all indications will be easily found guilty. Seems like justice will be served in this case.

Everyone accepts and supports the due process of law in the NJ mall case but in the Ferguson matter, people were unwilling to trust the grand jury which for three months considered all the evidence and decided quite properly that no indictment was warranted. People rashly rushed to judgement against Wilson prior to the grand jury decision and stubbornly refuse to accept a decision which was properly rendered.
