Brown's hands were not close to the officer's gun, police officers are known to be lying bastards, but that's not the point, his hands were up in the air when he was shot, the autopsy shows his head was lowered
The stippling and powder residue on Gentle Giant's hands, as well as the presence of his blood in the vehicle, indicate that his hands were very close to the officer's gun.
Remember when many people were insisting that Gentle Giant was shot in the back?
It was funny how quickly they turned on a dime and memory-holed that narrative when the Brown family's own expert debunked it. Exactly like when the video of his armed robbery caused the 'Gentle Giant' frame to be abruptly revoked in favor of the 'well nobody is perfect' model.
Too many people live in an evidence-free world of tribal reality created by social pressure. Everybody repeating a narrative like parrots and waving their hands around in the air doesn't prove anything about the incident one way or another.
Brown was killed in self defense. The evidence from the two autopsies show that brown's hands were close to the Wilson's gun and was likely trying to reach for it. 
FNORD!
