He is one of...three, I think...that have been relieved of duty due to comments about or actions involving Ferguson.

Those remarks were made in April I think. So, that was his attitude before the Ferguson thing kicked off.

It was prior to Ferguson. If you listen to the whole speech and look at his background (9 combat tours), you will quickly see that he has issues and has developed paranoia about the government. He needs help and he needs to retire from the PD or go into a strictly administrative role. He is definitely us against them.

Well guys, it looks like I might have been wrong. A new audio tape has surfaced showing a 3 second break in the firing sequence. I guess I might need to get back on the fence and not be blinded by emotion for the officer. Fundraising for the officer unbelievable through gofundme.com The first round raised $234,910.00 in a week. A second fundraiser is underway with over $130,000.00. Don't forget he is still receiving his salary.
He might get 10 years for violating the Brown's civil rights, but at the rate it is going he will walk out quite wealthy.

Even if he's a raving racist, the system in that town that existed before him, funneled him into the fear and loathing which sparked his actions. Nobody wins.

Dani, grenade launchers attach to the underside of M16 rifles. They can fire a variety of rounds including tear gas. They're best suited for the delivery of tear gas in urban riot control situations. Riot control police within range of delivering hand thrown tear gas canisters to a rioting crowd are also within range of that crowd to be stoned; or, burned with Molotov cocktails. When the Los Angeles Unified School District said it would remove three grenade launchers it had acquired because they "are not essential life-saving items within the scope, duties and mission" of the district's police force, they simply acknowledged that the school police are not going into the riot control business which will rest elsewhere. The capability will still exist, just with another organization. Believe it or not, in this day of modern weaponry, people are still being stoned to death by crowds:

But they didn't have tear gas, in fact they had nothing they could fire from those launchers. I'm betting there was no planned strategy, they just took them because they were available and free.
