    No true bill. The evidence acquitted the officer.

    And the natives trying to flip cars, set fires, shots fired. Honor a thug with thuggery?

    It may be getting closer to the point where even liberal politicians, some "activists" and mainstream media are running out of excuses blaming systematic racism, the police and America for the problems and violence within, and coming out of certain "communities".

    I'm afraid the vast majority of us/non-criminal educated people feel uncomfortable or outright frightened to say the obvious reasons regarding why a certain ethnic group has a very disproportionate number of it's members in prison, or wrongly convicted, murdered by gunfire or killed by police officers- Unable to produce enough qualified applicants to fill the rosters of police departments patrolling their very communities with a balanced "representative" number reflecting their population.

    We may be getting closer to the point where the cat finally jumps out of the bag and EVERYONE sees it and there is no other politically correct or painless way to describe it.

    About time, Justice Spoke Up. This BS carried on way too long, enough to begin a new volley of riots I bet. Let 'em burn down their own neighborhoods, stores, et al. Like they did in L.A. sit back watch it burn. What bone can one throw the racists thugs to lean 'em towards starting fires, (again in their own neighborhood shopping centers).

    Eric Holder owes, the St. Louis Police Chief more than an apology, the one Holder never gave a minute of his shit head time to hear out, or even meet with.

    Holder and Obuma, Sharpton and Jackson, thugs who get away with racists agendas, only to watch it all blow up in their faces. Hope we see more of the 4 choking on Facts over the rest of their miserable show boating ambulance chasing lives....:shitstorm::stirthepot:

    Black, white, yellow, martian....you attack a police officer and you get what you get. Brown got exactly what he deserved. Yet Officer Wilson's career is destroyed for doing his duty.

    That is the problem Rick....people are foolish enough to thinks its not that simple. It is exactly that fucking simple. The officer has authority, as the civilian you comply respectfully. Michael Brown is alive today if he followed the instructions of Officer Wilson. There's no gray area here Rick.

    Now apparently too many black males seem to think officer commands are suggestions. I blame the lack of family, father figures and the welfare state in general. Respect of authority is where the black community needs to rehabilitate themselves, then perhaps law enforcement will relax their vigilance.

    Wow.....setting fires, fire dept shows up and then shots being fired. Fire dept has to pull back and let the structures burn. This is definitely orchestrated.

    ...I don't know why the extra show of police et al was ordered ahead of time in the first place if they were not going to be used to protect property and enforce the law...instead, they just stand by and watch.

    "Lets burn some buildings, flip some cars over & loot all the stores that are basically owned & run by members of our own race. That'll show these honkey bastards. That'll raise the kid from the dead & take away the pain felt by the parents. That'll make them over turn there decisions & find the cop guilty. Yeah lets be as distructive as possible & act like complete animals. That'll show them".

    Unbelievable.

    Exactly. If I'm a business owner I'm fuming mad. Suing the town, city and state. Getting the videos and demanding forensics and charges against the rioters that can be identified, etc.

    The first paragraph is just you disagreeing again just for the sake of disagreeing. Take the blinders off, there's ALWAYS a grey area.

    However the 2nd paragraph to an extent I do agree with. It starts with the family & the up bringing.

    Blinders? Just common sense. I grew up in a law enforcement family, so once again I have subject matter expertise. When you interact with law enforcement, you care to point out these gray areas? You have the right to be silent....a right that is strongly recommended to be exercised. Now if you want to say that an officer cutting you some slack in the gray area...OK. But again from my first paragraph above, being respectful and complaint is the only route to a less severe outcome. Problem is Rick, people seem to justify their actions in the heat of the interaction and delude themselves they are owed 'justice'. Well justice is what is coming, and its a painful and costly lesson to realize you got the definition wrong.

    The more we purge your mentality from society, the sooner people will realize the justice they seek. Sorry man, you need to evolve on this topic. I know your intent and heart are in the right place, but they are getting in the way of your brain.

    Brown was most likely taunting the officer while thinking "you can't shoot me, I'm an unarmed black "kid", do you know what will happen if a white LEO shoots a black "kid"....well we know what happens.
