I want to believe the DA but this just does not pass my smell test ....

... but in the end Michael Brown was killed for shop lifting and the system
protected the cop.

I gotta give DU and the news a break for sometime now.

I hope for peace and no violence in Missouri but that will be a tall order.

So his credibility was already at zero.

Allowed Darren Wilson to look at the evidence presented and prepare his own defense in the grand jury?

Fuck that.

Time to get Obama to order the arrest of one Darren Wilson and get it done properly.

...if there was conflicting evidence or scientific evidence or autopsies....the fact remains that at boy with a fistful of stolen cigars was chased down shot multiple times and killed...period.

Any one of us can think of at least half a dozen mass murders who were armed and dangerous and still apprehended ALIVE.

This is something that would NEVER happen to a white boy.
