[From article]
The problem is, it may not have actually happened that way.
Multiple eyewitnesses who testified before the grand jury in Ferguson claimed that Brown’s hands weren’t up at all and that he was charging Officer Wilson when he was shot. Forensic evidence and multiple autopsies that were conducted concluded a similar pattern of events transpired that run contrary to the protesters' mantra.
Despite the doubt cast on the favored slogan, most of the protesters that MRCTV talked to at the Sharpton rally continued to insist that the original narrative is the correct one.
[. . .]
“No, no, the autopsies don’t have anything to do with that.”
“That’s not true; I’ve read the whole report, too.”
“No, he didn’t resist arrest.”
