It certainly is nothing compared to some events in foreign countries. I'll give you that. All I'm getting at is with the media coverage of this, it certainly could have been much worse. Do the police prepare for the worst and protect businesses or just let these people run wild and burn the town to the ground? And with some of the threats, why leave anything to chance?
Well the police are way more heavily armed, plus you have the Missouri National Guard.
Take advantage of this power and protect the city from thugs....
After comparing physical facts the ones that fit the facts were supported and led the grand jury to return with their decision. This was one of the most open fairest GJ ever.
Even the squirrely prosecutor admitted it's a secret process, meant to be secret. The paperwork supposedly will be released. It will be interesting to see it.
Welcome to your country --- where an unarmed person 100 feet away from an armed cop is deemed a threat to that cop's life. Like...really? Really? Do you feel safer now if you are ever approached by a cop? I don't.

Brown started out at 158 feet away and was killed 50 feet closer to Wilson meaning he charged the officer. Would you not do the same with a 300 lb angry man running full boar at you?
What I can't "wrap myself around" is how liberals are able to dissociate black death at the hands of police with the higher black crime rate. To hear these people, even after the logical jury decision in face of the available physical evidence and unreliable witnesses, this is somehow an illogical miscarriage of justice and there is apparently nothing to explain the higher rate of blacks killed by police.
What's the solution? To ignore higher black crime and violence to adjust the numbers for political purposes?
I think that blacks made a mistake in choosing a clearly valid shooting on the part of a police officer to address perceived civil rights complaints. The lack of indictment of Wilson indicts the protestors for their property destruction and removes the platform on which they attempted to stand, making it difficult to later be heard when a more legitimate situation arises.
And again with the false narrative. It was proven, with physical evidence, that Brown was charging the officer. Did you even watch the prosecutor's press conference?
It was not. That is not even what the sweating Prosecutor said, why don't you re-watch what that guy said?

How many strong armed robberies have you committed?
P.S. The autopsy results didn't jive with most of the *public* testimony from Browns friend. That's how people determine whom to believe, what testimony matches up with physical evidence.
