Man, all those poor business owners helplessly watching their stores and everything they built up burned to the ground or looted. I'd like to say I'd be there fully armed to make sure my store didn't get looted, but in reality my life is worth more than the material goods in the store or store itself.

If ever there was a good example of why everyone should have the right to bear arms, this is it. You can't count on the cops to protect you or maintain law and order, you have to protect yourself and your family.

Or they could have left town and visiting you guys instead. Staying home during an inevitable riot and potentially having a shootout is not the smartest move.

Are we still a nation of law and order or lawlessness, rioting, looting, and destroying?

Where the hell are the local/county/state police? Where are the National Guards? Where are the FBI? Look like places are burning and being looted with scumbags running around without any consequences.

Can anyone interpret the THC levels?

Wilson only showed a high creatinine level.

Site is slammed, so keep trying.

I can't really interpret, but I found a couple of articles that may shed some light.

http://www.denverpost.com/ci_22351391/yes-creating-standard-drivers-thc-levels-is-essential

All current, peer-reviewed, validated studies say that people are generally under the influence at 5 nanograms(ng) of delta-9 THC per milliliter of whole blood (mL).
• A person with 5 ng/mL delta-9 is 6.6 times more likely to cause a crash than a person with no detectable delta-9.
• At 5 ng/mL, most users will exhibit objective signs of impairment, including impairment of psychomotor skills. Highly automated behaviors, those not requiring conscious monitoring (i.e., driving), are most affected as well as critical tracking, ability to complete divided attention tasks, and complex tasks. Signs of impairment begin between 1-2.5 ng/mL. Global impairment is observed between 2.5-5 ng/mL.
• Chronic users may partially compensate for some impairing effects of THC, but only for short periods of time and for simple tasks, not for unexpected or high-demand circumstances. Heavy users may develop partial tolerance for some of the impairing effects of THC but insufficient for the complex tasks required to drive.
• When smoked, peak delta-9 THC levels are reached while actively smoking and range from 25-100s of ng/mL. This level drops to less than 5 ng/mL within three hours after smoking. Heavy users may have residual levels of less than 2-3 ng/mL within twelve hours after smoking. Very low levels of THC (less than 1 ng/mL) may be detected in heavy users for weeks following smoking.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16723194
Binomial tests showed an initial and significant shift toward impairment in the Critical tracking task for serum THC concentrations between 2 and 5 ng/ml. At concentrations between 5 and 10 ng/ml approximately 75-90% of the observations were indicative of significant impairment in every performance test. At THC concentrations >30 ng/ml the proportion of observations indicative of significant impairment increased to a full 100% in every performance tests. It is concluded that serum THC concentrations between 2 and 5 ng/ml establish the lower and upper range of a THC limit for impairment.
And a bunch of stuff here: http://www.nhtsa.gov/people/injury/research/job185drugs/cannabis.htm

Multiple eye witnesses have Brown at a full blown charge towards Wilson when shots were fired. Eye witnesses who gave accurate information in addition to this charging aspect of what they describe (that other accurate info being shot count, timing, distances corroborated by physical and other evidence).

The pause in the audio we all heard of the shots appears to be out of mercy... before Brown once again goes into a full blown charge towards Wilson. Distance appears to be less than 10 yards when shots began.



Media still getting this totally wrong, none more than MSNBC and their clown crew.

I've been attempting to call the Taco Bell in Ferguson for half an hour, getting only a busy signal or no connection at all. Fortunately I just saw someone pull into the drive thru, order food and receive it on CNN.

For that man so loved his fourth meal that he himself was watching the Autozone next door burn down on CNN but said to himself, "Ya know, I really want that chalupa."

And people call that injustice. After the evidence has fully come to light, who does not support Officer Wilson?

creatinine = creatine?

Loading creatine monohydrate which converts to creatinine in 24-48 hours is an old trick people use employing the dilution method to "trick" integrity checks on a urine drug screen. People who eat a lot of red meat and weight lifters can also have abnormally high creatinine levels but one must take well above the recommended daily dosage to achieve this.

I think it's time for martial law and the NG gets deployed.

Careful there! That would allow Obama to remain in office beyond his term and suspend the constitution, thereby making him a dictator. Want that?
