Ferguson, Missouri Incident Has People Questioning What Constitutes Police Brutality

NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The recent events in Ferguson, Missouri have caused people to wonder where the line should be drawn when it comes to the police. On August 9th, a 18-year-old Michael Brown was shot dead by an on-duty police officer following the report of a nearby convenience story robbery.   It was reported that Brown was unarmed but that there was a struggle between him and the officer, which resulted in the shooting.

The events that transpired following Brown's death have included nights of violence, vandalism, looting and more shootings by police who claim they felt that their safety was in jeopardy.  As Ferguson residents continued to demonstrate their anger with the shooting of Brown, the situation  created a nationwide discussion about not only police brutality and race, but just how much force is too much when it comes to law enforcement?
