In the hours and days following the shooting to death of eighteen year old Michael Brown, a shocking, conjured depiction of what happened emerged across America. Apparently Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson, who shot Brown, woke up that morning, looked into his mirror and decided that day was the day he was going to gun down an innocent black teenager for no other reason than he could.
