You're making the mistake of assuming facts have ever mattered to the people who've rallied around this "cause"....

Within hours of the shooting, that community had already tried, convicted, and executed Darren Wilson. ( Figuratively of course )

The facts didn't matter then, and they won't matter now. The only relevant fact to them, is that a white man killed a black man, and that equals de facto racism in their eyes. It was the same thing with Trayvon Martin, and Eric Garner. Never mind that there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to conclude that race was a contributing factor in any of those cases.

And of course we saw the same thing with the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman situation leading up to the elections in 2012.

Watch for it again during the 2016 primary season, or by summertime before the election at the latest.
Don't forget about Soros and his funding for it.

How would you know if they are corrupt? Because the media said so? Because Eric Holder says so?

LOL. Both the media and Eric Holder are at least as corrupt as the Ferguson PD, however corrupt that they are.

And you don't have the first clue what "wilson backers" will "admit".

First of all, I was not a backer of either "side," rather, I was and I am a backer of justice in situations like this. That means that if Officer Wilson was guilty of wrongdoing here, then I would have expected to see him prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Likewise, if the Ferguson PD is corrupt, then it needs to be reformed and the corrupt people need to be held accountable. Not accountable to the whims of a protester lynch mob, or a media trial, or even to a racially biased racial agitator like Erik Holder, but to the law.

I am not clear if there are legitimate concerns about this, given that most of the information suggesting that there is, is coming from Eric Holder's office and a media that has already botched this story once. But it appears that investigations are underway in Missouri, people have resigned, and I expect to see this mess cleaned up, with no pre-concieved notions of any limits that need to be placed on that.

Meanwhile, you speak of "backers," of certain 'sides,' which almost certainly lets us now that you are inclined to jump to conclusions and treat this as if it is a situation where backing a person or a side is appropriate.

Just FYI: It isn't.

When a town is 70% (not sure of the actual number) black, why do people get pissed because more black people get tickets?

You have a well-known hatred of cops. So your statement is dismissed out of hand.
