  1. The Article To my unborn son was very touching and inspiring because it gives Micheal Brown family a little confort knowing that others fell the same way and that justice for there son should be served so that this will not happen to the next black young man that come in contact with a police officer .

  4. The death of Michael Brown has made me realize how protected and justified police actions are. Despite what protocol the citizen followed, whatever the police feels is right is justified. There's no if and or buts about the action. Seeing this happen to Michael Brown, I think I will be staying in the house for a while. There are social media pictures going around with people on their knees with their hands up. This symbolizes that Michael Brown was on his knees with his hands and the police still decided to offer 6 warning shots in his back. Many people are taking this picture to show how injustice his situation was.
