Good for that grand jury. They looked at THE FACTS of the case and didn't bend to the will of the ghetto mob.

Thank God. Lol I'd love to seem them try and riot now

He wasn't charged because he didn't do anything wrong. The grand jury saw that, and thank goodness they did.

Even XDCX sees it for what it is. And he's a California liberal .

You know I'm just kidding, pal .

Is he going too return to work you guys think?

it was no surprise, you go for a cops gun, what do you expect!!

And the gunshots and vandalism starts. What's the possibility of federal charges against Officer Wilson? No doubt there will be a civil suit for $$$$.

I gots to get mine!

Santas little elves will be making a list and checking it twice, just before they go looting for the Xmas in Ferguson.

They should put up an electric fence and leave the good citizens of Ferguson to their own devices. Let them kill each other. It's no great loss to humanity.

Amen. What a bunch of animals ! Let em kill each other,

I had not heard before: Officer Wilson was where he was because he had just answered a call about a baby who had stopped breathing.

I'm glad the suspense is over but not that surprised at the decision.

I was surprised the grand jury got to see all the evidence in the case.

That never ever happens. They normally get only some of the evidence that favors the prosecutions case. If that is all they see it should have warranted a trial.

It does not mean he was guilty or even close to guility. I know there are at least two lawyers on this site. I wonder what they think about this?

Oh get this the blacks caucus thinks its is a disgrace. I think the black caucus is a disgrace. Why because they wont take a black congressman on their caucus if that black congressmen is a republican that's why. There a fucking joke.

This is the Missouri law about a police officer's use of deadly force:

563.046. A law enforcement officer in effecting an arrest or in preventing an escape from custody is justified in using deadly force:

"...(2) When he reasonably believes that such use of deadly force is immediately necessary to effect the arrest and also reasonably believes that the person to be arrested

(a) Has committed or attempted to commit a felony; or

(b) Is attempting to escape by use of a deadly weapon; or

(c) May otherwise endanger life or inflict serious physical injury unless arrested without delay."

In light of this law, the fact that Officer Wilson did know about the convenience store robbery, and the physical evidence there was no credible evidence remaining that Officer Wilson had broken the law. It was the prosecutor's discretion to give the remaining evidence (all the evidence) to the Grand Jury.

For that grand jury to decide NOT to indict despite being under enormous pressure to do so and despite the fact some on that jury were black clearly proves the evidence supporting the officers use of deadly force was OVERWHELMING.
The officer was clearly punched and beaten by that thug and thats something the public never knew. That animal just committed a robbery and was another out of control black male born out of wedlock. Gotta wonder if that thug has any kids running around. I hate to sound crass but its reality.
99.9% of all those so called protestors can give 2 shits about that thug, they were foaming at the mouth at the prospect of an excuse to start looting. Did you see the smiles on their faces??? It was priceless. Yeah, go ahead and ruin your own neighborhoods some more and then expect the government to come in and fix your own mess.

It's really sad that this cop has to live with the fact that he killed someone. Justified or not, there is really no telling what that does to a person's emotional state.

Everyone worries about the african american community; how it will react. But, not much is written or spoken about how the other individual may be affected. He was considering resigning. Why? because he did, what he thought was his job? Protect and Serve.

Make this about black/white, thin blue line, whatever. But, I don't think the cop went out people hunting that day.

He should have gotten the No Bill as he acted within the law. Brown was the aggressor and criminal but the black community refuses to see this. Many of them are just waiting for an excuse to riot and loot. As was show live on Fox news the looters were smiling and laughing as they robber the liquor store- they were not mourning for Michael Brown. What confuses me is that now that this phase is over what can/ will the Federal Grand Jury do ?? I would expect that Mr Holder would stack the deck. I also know this isn't the last time this happens. Lastly I am bothered that much of the news media was completely on the side of Brown- They are well educated enough to read the facts

They can do whatever they want. But I think what happened with the grand jury shows that people are tired of this bullshit. They'll never win, no matter the venue. If they try to bring something Federally it's just sour grapes.


You're surprised that the media has a liberal bias? I'm just surprised that CNN hasn't petitioned to close schools on Michael Brown's birthday.

There was looting and rioting in downtown Los Angeles, as well. A whole crowd of protesters stormed the 110 freeway and blocked traffic for hours. Some of them were even lying down in the middle of the street.

That's L.A. for ya. They love a good race riot.

look at the responses in this thread

ain't much changed plus ferguson's county (jurors) has a hisotry of racism

What responses? That people have had it with Black cretins getting their way out of political correctness? That a Black attorney general fanned the flames of this fire from day one? That he wouldn't have even survived the many scandals of his run as attorney general if he wasn't blacker than Shinola?


If you'd be so kind, Mista Calhoun, can you provide a link to back up those claims of racism?

You know, there are quite a few White liberals on this website. Hell, I'm pretty liberal on some social issues myself. They're normally pretty vocal about race and such. But their silence speaks volumes here. Good for them.

It's 1:25 pm, and Michael Brown is still rotting in his grave. I'm Pizzaboy and I approve of this shooting.

What bothers me most about this situation is how there's an absolute firestorm on social media all in defense and in complete tears about the decision. Especially from my generation which uses it the most.

Social media isn't the great boon to mankind people are envisioning it to be, and while it has its uses, its become another tool for idiots to express opinions on things they don't know shit about. Case and point being the Ferguson fiasco. Whining and talking "no justice" "blacklivesmatter" "white privilege" when most didn't even bother looking at the evidence surrounding the case.

In addition to all of this, while the Brown family had the dignity and respect to call for peaceful protests, we see yet again more looting, gunfire, rioting, burning and hoarding.

These fuckin animals don't give a damn about Mike Brown they're just using this and his death to justify destroying and stealing. But of course the liberal left ignores this. Rocks and stones were thrown at law enforcement, and a CNN reporter got hit by a rock in the head! So much for bringing out a 'peaceful' demonstration. If this is the great change to the system that's supposed to come after this, I want no fucking part of it. I'm absolutely done with all this nonsense and the ignorant masses who don't know their ass from their elbow

This is why you DON'T believe all you hear on social media. The crack head that was with him swore up and down he was shot in the back with his hands up too. Yea right.

I'll never understand "hey he didn't get indicted, lets destroy every business in OUR neighborhood!". Fucking losers need a life!

And hey I hate most police officers too, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna reach for their gun and go to hitting them either.

For anyone who is interested, this is the New York Times link to the Grand Jury material that was released last night:

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2014/11/25/us/evidence-released-in-michael-brown-case.html?_r=1

The witness interviews can be pretty interesting.

well, the fact that there were 3 blacks on the grand jury tells me the evidence was overwhelming, and the cop was only defending himself, if there was any doubt would not have the

three black people voted to indict the cop?

I realize you claim to have no political leanings one way or the other (and I believe that, when it comes to questions between Republicans/Democrats - which are really just two sides of the same coin), but let's not pretend your views aren't coloured by a conservative bias. That much is obvious. America itself tends towards a conservative bias, I mean, the Democrats in Canada would be more rightwing than our Tory party.

Your arguments in this thread, PB, are unusually brow beating, intellectually disingenuous and seem like a thin guise for your obvious racial prejudices (which shine bright and clear whenever you talk to cookcounty and while I understand your contempt for the kid, it doesn't justify stooping to the lowest level possible). You're a smart man, but set in your ways and put too much emphasis on information conveyed by sources that are intrinsically misleading; the media, whether it's left or right leaning and (let's not pretend that there are not outlets who tend towards the right), simply pander to peoples' confirmative biases.

So you tell me which you think is more credible and more importantly why you think that? I see you guys talking about all this evidence that conclusively proves the officer is innocent of aggression. Okay, well, what is it? Where is it? I see everything here on this topic EXCEPT any evidence one way or the other. This case is so distorted that I quite honestly cannot separate fact from fiction, yet you all seem to have zero issue with it.

Darren Wilson breaks his silence, "I wouldn't change a thing..."

And it's been clear from your very first post that you're a left leaning European with a clear bias against Americans. I wasn't going to mention it. But since you're giving yourself away here, why not?

And you're as entitled to your liberal worldview as anyone else. But until you've lived in this country and walked these neighborhoods, I'm sorry, but your opinion just doesn't matter all that much to me. You're a foreigner, plain and simple. That doesn't mean you're a bad guy. As a matter of fact I find your posts to be well written and intelligent. But when it comes to what goes on in America, I'd rather bang heads with Cook County. I don't like him, he doesn't like me. But he's an American. And by virtue of his birthright, his opinion (as retarded as I believe it to be) is going to mean more to me than that of a left leaning Englishman.


The autopsy is all I need. That cretin went for the cop's gun. And now he's dead. Case closed. Until these animals find another excuse to burn down their own neighborhoods.
