KTLA reports via CNN Wire:
A man, who asked that his identity not be revealed, lives near the site of the shooting and was close enough to have heard the gunshots, his attorney said. He was speaking to a friend on a video chat service and happened to be recording the conversation at the same time Brown was shot.
In the recording, a quick series of shots can be heard, followed by a pause and then another quick succession of shots. Forensic audio expert Paul Ginsberg analyzed the recording and said he detected at least 10 gunshots -- a cluster of six, followed by four.
"I was very concerned about that pause ... because it's not just the number of gunshots, it's how they're fired," said the man's attorney. "And that has a huge relevance on how this case might finally end up."

Nobody I grew up with would rob a store, want cigars, mouth off to a cop
Then you grew up alone. Because I did all three, as well as most of my friends. Most of us grew up to be pretty decent people that certainly contribute to society. (and the other items you mentioned haven't been proven - actually haven't even been claimed since there is no police report)
Young men act stupid all the time; there are books that describe worse than you just described from the golden age of purism, the 50's. If you think that a teenage boy acting like an idiot immediately makes him worthy of being shot, then please put your head in front a gun and pull the trigger.
Seriously, you are garbage.

It's pretty sad that you think this kind of shit is normal. Maybe it is, but that doesn't make it OK.
I suppose I chose my friends well.
To clarify, I did know of people who I suspect might have been tempted to do those things. I avoided those people because they were trash.
