The tweets discuss the case of Michael Brown, highlighting that he robbed a convenience store, attacked a police officer, and was shot and killed. Various sources mention that claims of Brown having his hands up or being shot in the back were false. The Obama-era DOJ investigated and found the shooting justified. Critics condemn attempts to portray Brown as a victim, emphasizing his criminal actions and the need for justice and accountability.
True or false? Before Michael Brown was shot and killed, he raised his hands above his head and shouted, “Hands up. Don’t shoot.” @larryelder has the answer. https://t.co/71ShbGTku2
"Hands up, Don't shoot" was built on a lie. Michael Brown tried to kill a cop and people rioted in his honor. https://t.co/Hyki7RQBbt
All the evidence shows that Mike Brown is responsible for what happened...to Mike Brown. https://t.co/GifvbxrvSX

What @RepCori never mentions is the six black witnesses who confirmed Officer Wilson's account of the shooting of Michael Brown. To this day, not one witness has ever stepped forward because "snitches get stitches." Bush exploited the false "hands up, don't shoot" narrative to… https://t.co/CDD3fTTqIn
He was a violent menace who attacked a police officer and tried to take his gun after robbing and terrorizing an convenience store owner. You degrade yourself by honoring him. https://t.co/BOmNyZ4eLZ
It’s tragic how Mike Brown got shot. It’s also tragic how he victimized other people which led to him getting shot. It’s also tragic how I once got bamboozled by the “hands up; don’t shoot” lie. I’ll be much more guarded in the future. https://t.co/MorLIqY8nI
Mike Brown got killed because he was an asshole https://t.co/X2bA2c01Ru
Michael Brown was a thug who robbed a grocery store and attacked the police officer who showed up by going for his firearm. Obama’s own Justice Department found the officer’s shooting to be completely justified. He had it coming, and posting a picture of the barely literate… https://t.co/KBmMrjKmgG
Hey @NAACP, why don’t you celebrate a genuine black man of character and accomplishment instead of a thief who initiated a fight with police and reached for an officer’s gun. Also, the Obama DOJ determined that the police response was warranted. https://t.co/5FusyPpx4L
'Black people continue to be targeted by police who view us as a threat.' He said, defending a young black man who was killed while violently assaulting a police officer after violently assaulting a shop owner he was stealing from. https://t.co/VHAcnyBlkU
Michael Brown, on film, brutally assaulted a shop owner he was stealing from, then assaulted a police officer who defended himself. How do you imagine you'll reduce the image of black men as a threat by turning a violent man into a martyr simply because he was black? https://t.co/VHAcnyBlkU
RACISM: Black police who kill black suspects are racist... https://t.co/EnpNwE2zn6
Yes, he should be. But organizations like the @NAACP have sadly abandoned the fight for justice and accountability for false narratives that bring them power and money. Watch "What Killed Michael Brown?": https://t.co/Lk82D69wWp https://t.co/SpnWi0Mqvo
But instead he chose to steal from a convenience store and then, per multiple independent forensic reports including one from the Obama DOJ, was proven to have gone for a cop's gun while trying to murder a cop resulting in gunpowder residue on his hand. Have you tweeted for… https://t.co/v98rxuPp38

Michael Brown robbed swisher sweets from a convenience store, assaulted a police officer, tried to steal his gun, charged at him before being shot and killed, and "Hands up don't shoot" was determined to be a lie by Eric Holder's DOJ. https://t.co/9hiYbwXkDk
Criminal Michael Brown authored his own demise when he attacked a police officer. For the @NAACP to be suggesting that he is a victim of violence and not a perpetrator of it is an unconscionable act of anti-white racism. Shame on them. https://t.co/89gnlHrtnC
Michael Brown should be 28 today. And 1—Darren Wilson STILL not indicted 2—DW’s police report STILL blank 3—STILL a local cover-up 4—DOJ report still a copy & paste of #3 5—That used fake witnesses (like #40) 6—Ignored ONLY real-time witnesses “He fucking had his hands up!” 👇 https://t.co/mgGxNsvM6y
This is deranged and needlessly ramps up racial tensions. The shooting was justified according to the evidence. This case was always filled with lies, such as the claim Brown had his hands up, or that he was shot in the back. Both false. The Obama-era DOJ investigated this and… https://t.co/nf5o7XOIc1
This is deranged and needlessly ramps up racial tensions. This case was always filled with lies, such as the claim Brown had his hands up, or that he was shot in the back. Both false. The Obama-era DOJ investigated this and concluded the same. Stop trying to divide us along… https://t.co/nf5o7XOIc1
Michael Brown made a series of choices. He chose to rob a convenience store. He chose to attack the cop who tried to arrest him after he robbed the convenience store. Few killings have been as exhaustively investigated. His death was justified. https://t.co/xvoB3fHUsQ
