Media still deceiving about Michael Brown after 9 years. Here’s why.
Remembering the Ninth Anniversary of Darren Wilson’s Lynching
Yesterday marked the ninth anniversary of the tragic lynching of police officer Darren Wilson. On August 9th, 2014, Wilson found himself in a confrontation with 18-year-old Michael Brown, who had just committed a robbery and attacked a store clerk.
According to the Obama DOJ, Wilson and other witnesses stated that Brown reached into Wilson’s SUV, punched and grabbed him. The evidence supported this account, with bruising on Wilson’s jaw, scratches on his neck, Brown’s DNA on Wilson’s clothing, and Wilson’s DNA on Brown’s palm. In self-defense, Wilson shot Brown after he attempted to grab his gun and charged at him. These are the factual details, as concluded by the investigation.
Despite the Obama DOJ’s efforts to find fault with Wilson, they ultimately determined that he had done nothing wrong. This conclusion disappointed those who sought to sacrifice him for the sake of racial justice. Contrary to media reports, not a single witness claimed that Brown said “don’t shoot.” Witnesses who claimed Brown had his hands up were either contradicted by evidence or later recanted their testimony. These are the facts, and you can read the full DOJ report online.
However, what you won’t find online is what happened to Darren Wilson. His name has been erased from the media, as if he never existed. Reports suggest that he now lives in anonymity, unable to work as a police officer again. His life was destroyed, and those who defamed him as a racist killer never apologized. No one was held accountable for the destruction of an innocent man’s life.
The Media’s Distorted Narrative
In a country that valued truth and justice, this would be a national scandal. Unfortunately, that is not the country we live in. Instead, on the anniversary of Brown’s death, the media once again canonized him. Local news stations described the case as a “ceremony to honor Michael Brown, the teenager shot and killed by a police officer after a confrontation.” They conveniently omitted the facts we discussed earlier, focusing on irrelevant details like the length of time Brown’s body lay in the street. They failed to mention the difficulties caused by the mob that hindered the crime scene investigation or the lies spread by supposed witnesses.
It wasn’t just one news station spreading lies; they all did it. The local Fox station described the incident without mentioning Brown’s actions, framing it as an issue of “police brutality and injustice faced by African-Americans.” They highlighted Brown’s family while ignoring Wilson’s. The media deliberately keeps the public in the dark, contradicting their responsibility to provide accurate information.
The Persistence of Lies
Why do they continue to lie about this shooting, even after nine years when the truth is widely known? Perhaps they are still taking orders from the Democratic Party, which refuses to let go of the false narrative. Representatives like Cori Bush and various left-wing groups perpetuate the lie, claiming that Brown’s death is evidence of systemic racism and white supremacy.
But it’s not just politicians and lawyers who spread these lies. The Biden administration, including the State Department, is also portraying Michael Brown as a hero. This deliberate disinformation campaign is reminiscent of their tactics in inspiring color revolutions overseas. They are now distorting a police shooting from nine years ago, ignoring the truth that has long been debunked.
The Consequences of Lies
The impact of these lies is evident in the rise of violent crime in cities like Ferguson. Police departments have been defunded or demoralized, leading to a decrease in solved cases and an increase in crime rates. The Ferguson lie was the genesis of the modern Black Lives Matter movement, which the Left used to gain political power and divert attention from rising populist sentiments.
The Left’s Long Game
The Left’s strategy is clear: they want to tear down our current system of government, rule of law, and traditions. They seek to replace it with their own vision of an “equitable” society, with themselves in control. They play the long game, repeating lies until they become accepted as truth, even when evidence proves otherwise.
As time goes on, historical lies gain more power, while the truth becomes harder to uphold. The Left counts on this, pushing their distorted narratives until there is no one left to remember the truth. It is a dangerous path we are on, and we must remain vigilant in the face of their relentless propaganda.
