They got married in August.
Edit: Which I just realized might mean they got married after Brown died.

While some may say who cares, I admire him as a public figure not afraid to speak against the grain. Lots of other celebs are doing things like not releasing their designer shoes in protest of the Ferguson decision (Solange Knowles).

Good for you Charles.
Big whoop. Everybody has their opinion on this. And of course you admire him since he has the same opinion of you.

I've posted that a couple of times.

I'm sure it won't work its way into "the ghetto".

I'm sure that he will be labeled an uncle tom.

The one's that will refute this guys statements, are more than likely the ones that cause problems.

People hate common sense, especially when it goes against their common sense.

Just a thought...but if they are married, she can't testify against him. I wonder if there is something we don't know that they thought might come to light with the publicity surrounding MB? Just wondering why they'd hurry and get married after he died.

I tried to search for a marriage license application for them. They are available online for some counties in Missouri but I couldn't find anything for St. Louis County.

You know what they say...thugs of a feather...

I'm sick of the family's fake outrage. If they cared about their son, they would have cared enough to raise him not to be a thug for the last 18 or 19 years. Kind of late to start pretending to care about him now. I personally think they are wanting to see how they can profit from this and that's why they are so "outraged."

Lesley and Louis are going to milk this for all it's worth
.
^^^Exactly. Typical ghetto family raising ghetto kids to rob, steal, defy authority, ignore the laws/rules and hope something happens that they can sue, yell discrimination and make a few bucks off of an ugly situation.
MB's family is responsible for what happened and this incident has set their race back and any accomplishments they've made a 100 years.

Wow.

My mother sent me to my grandmother's house when I was 9 years old and we didn't reunite until I was 12. I had no idea that it might have happened because I was 'out of control'.

At the time, there was some indication that it was for my own welfare since my mother was nuts, abusing valium and other drugs, banging new boyfriends and not functioning like a parent.

Now, decades later: I am definitely out of control, although more by choice than circumstance.

The cops in Ferguson are throwing a temper tantrum because one of their own wasn't allowed to kill an unarmed man without consequences.

Eye for an eye. Blood for blood.

Been watching the news, hoping the folks in Ferguson take a cop down before this is all over.
