It’s
not often that someone who is being prosecuted gets to testify openly before a grand jury to prevent their own arrest. While legally binding and under oath, grand jury witnesses are not cross-examined and are given great space to meander and opine with their thoughts. Because the primary purpose of a prosecution-led grand jury is to secure a conviction, it’s the standard to typically only present any damning evidence available toward that goal and nothing more.
After a thorough examination of Darren Wilson’s four-hour long open testimony before the grand jury, it’s clear that he was well-prepared to paint the narrative of a cordial, helpless, respectable community servant who shockingly found himself up against the biggest, blackest, strongest, demonic super monster he’s ever seen in his life.
Below is an analysis and destruction of that racist narrative which has a deep history known as the big black buck or big black brute.
ABOUT DARREN WILSON
1. Darren Wilson stated to the grand jury that he was 6 feet, 4 inches tall, and weighed at least 210 pounds. He's not a small man.
2. The only video we have of Darren Wilson as a Ferguson police officer is of him not being a sweet servant, but a strong bully, who threatens a man who is filming him to "throw your ass in jail" if he didn't stop filming.
3. Dorian Johnson, who was literally inches away from Mike Brown when Darren Wilson pulled up, has stated from the day Mike Brown was killed that Darren Wilson was vulgar and belligerent, telling them to "get the fuck on the sidewalk" as soon as he pulled up beside them.
THE SWEET WHITE PERFECTION OF DARREN WILSON'S TESTIMONY
Upon seeing Mike Brown and Dorian Johnson, Darren Wilson, driving up in is Tahoe, nicely asks them, "Hey guys, why don't you walk on the sidewalk?" Dorian Johnson tells him, "We're almost at our destination." As friendly as Mr. Rogers, Darren Wilson then asks, according to his testimony, "But what's wrong with the sidewalk?"
THE BIG BLACK DEMONIC SUPERMONSTER EMERGES
After hearing Officer Darren Wilson, friendly and cordial, armed, in his full-size Chevy Tahoe warmly ask "What's wrong with the sidewalk?" Mike Brown, in full monster mode, tells him angrily, "Fuck what you have to say."
THE SWEET WHITE PERFECTION OF DARREN WILSON'S TESTIMONY CONTINUES
According to Darren Wilson, it's after monster Mike Brown makes the vulgar statement to him that he decides to peacefully drive away down Canfield Drive. After peacefully driving away, Darren Wilson calmly reverses the car and says to Mike Brown, "Hey. Come here for a minute."
THE BIG BLACK DEMONIC SUPERMONSTER GETS ANGRY
Hearing the warm request of Darren Wilson, Mike Brown looks him in the face and says, "What the fuck are you going to do about it?" and slams the barely open door back on Darren Wilson. Wilson tells monster Mike Brown to back up but, according to Darren Wilson, Mike Brown just stares "to intimidate me or to overpower me...the intense face he had was not what I expected."
Darren Wilson then attempts to open his door one more time, but monster Mike closes it, and, according to Wilson, Mike Brown ducks and Wilson, as if he himself is somewhere far away states, "I saw him coming into my vehicle." Strangely Wilson then states, "I turned, so I don't remember seeing him come at me."
It gets stranger. Darren Wilson then states that Mike Brown hit him with his right hand with a "full-on-swing." Then, when asked what hand Mike Brown was holding the Cigarillos in, Darren Wilson states, "They were in his right hand." As they struggle, Wilson stated in his testimony that Mike Brown moves the Cigarillos from his right hand to his left hand, all while completely dominating Darren Wilson who, not once, claims to have ever put his hands on Mike Brown in a violent manner.
Shockingly, Wilson then states that while Mike Brown fully controlled him, he turns his head, reaches backwards to Dorian Johnson, and says, regarding the Cigarillos, "Here man hold these."
At this point, Darren Wilson appeared to even shock the prosecutor with his next statement.
Wilson: When I grabbed him, the only way I can describe it is I felt like a five year old grabbing Hulk Hogan.
Attorney: Holding onto what?
Wilson: Hulk Hogan. That's just how big he felt and how small I felt.
Having first said that Mike Brown was inside of his SUV punching him, Darren Wilson, having just described Mike Brown as having passed Cigarillos to Dorian Johnson, describes Mike Brown as being "six inches away from the door" and not inside of the car. Still at this point, Wilson has said nothing of holding on to Mike, choking Mike, punching Mike—it's a one-sided battle.
THE SWEET WHITE PERFECTION OF DARREN WILSON'S TESTIMONY CONTINUES
Not wanting to use his gun, Wilson then goes on a very long explanation of how, in the heat of the battle with Mike Brown, he first considered using his mace, but thought that Brown would block it and some would get back on him, then he considered a taser, but he didn't have one on him, then he considered his baton, but he didn't think he could get a good swing at Mike, then he considered his flashlight, but it was too far away.
Left with only one option, Darren Wilson draws his gun, points it at Mike Brown, and then states, "Get back or I'm going to shoot you."
THE BIG BLACK DEMONIC SUPERMONSTER RETURNS
Staring Darren Wilson down, the gun pointing in his face, Mike Brown looks right at Darren Wilson and says, according to Wilson's testimony, "You are too much of a pussy to shoot me" and boldly grabs the gun. This statement, outrageous on its face, echoes the statement that George Zimmerman said unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin made to him shortly before he was shot and killed when he said, "You are going to die tonight, motherfucker."
Stating that he was afraid of the "bigger and stronger" Brown, Darren Wilson then claims that he was afraid one more punch from Mike Brown might actually kill him by stating, "I've already taken two to the face and the third one could be fatal."
Mike Brown, according to Wilson, holds the gun onto Wilson's leg. Somehow, Wilson is able to get the gun off of his leg from the "bigger and stronger" Brown. Wilson attempts to pull the trigger twice and nothing happens. On the third trigger pull, the gun goes off, glass from a window shatters, it startles Mike Brown, he lets go, backs up, then morphs back into full monster mode. Wilson testified:
And then after he did that, he looked up at me and had the most intense aggressive face. The only way I can describe it, it looks like a demon, that's how angry he looked.
Then, according to Wilson, Mike Brown charges back at the armed Wilson, punches him again, and after Wilson gets punched again, he fires one more shot at Mike Brown and hits him. According to Wilson, Mike Brown then took off running over 175 feet away from the SUV. After getting 175 feet away, according to Darren Wilson, Mike Brown voluntarily stopped and decided to do what only a superhuman monster would do.
He turns, and when he looked at me, he made like a grunting, like aggravated sound and he starts, he turns and he's coming back towards me. His first step is coming towards me, he kind of does like a stutter step to start running, when he does that, his left hand goes in a fist and goes to his side, and his right one goes into his shirt, in his waistband, and he starts running at me. I keep telling him to get on the ground, he doesn't. I shoot a series of shots. I know I hit him at least once.
Inferring that Mike Brown has a gun in his waist that his right hand is holding, Darren Wilson went on to state, "I remember having tunnel vision on his right hand. That's all. I'm just focusing on that right hand when I'm shooting. I shoot another round of shots. I don't recall how many it was or if I hit him every time. I know at least once, because he flinched again."
Finally, according to Darren Wilson, Mike Brown turned up his super-villain instincts just one last time.
At this point, it looked like he was almost bulking up to run through the shots. Like it was making him mad that I'm shooting at him. And the face he had was looking straight through me, like I wasn't even there, I wasn't even in his way ... I remember looking at my sites and firing, all I see is his head, and that's what I shot ... the aggression was gone, the threat was stopped.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is the
fairy tale of Sweet Darren versus Monster Mike.
