It's as if they're going out of their way to make Officer Wilson look racist.
.....
ugh, if Wilson and the department has any brains, they'll decline the KKK's money. What a shit show.
The prosecutor said the GJ presentation will take until mid-October, so don't look for any resolution soon.
I have no doubt that Officer Wilson will refuse this money and possibly speak out against anyone that's trying to make this into a race based incident.
Of course you don't.I've never understood this line of thinking.

Guess I can't accuse them of rushing.

I saw on CNN while out for lunch today and some were threatnening to riot if Wilson is not indicted. Are we still a nation of law and order or run by mob justice with no regard to the facts? Wow, just wow.

It's reasonable once you understand that Missouri law requires a trial to begin within 70-90 days depending on circumstance. Rush to indictment and the clock starts ticking.
This way if there is going to be a trial they can be ready and prepared if they delay indictment.

So, what are all the different issues that are getting intertwined like a plate of spaggetti?
1) What actual events took place between the time Wilson drove up on Brown and Johnson and the fatal shooting of Brown.
2) Percieved racial animosity by residents of Ferguson relating the Cops patrolling the area.
3) Early on a lack of transparency/openess from PD on information in the case. Continuing.
4) Socio-economic concerns in Ferguson that fuel lack of privelage and oppurtunity.
5) ???
6) Officer transparency through mandatory cameras
7) Lethality of Officer training/protocol
8) ???
I see some stuff piggy backing on #1, and I don't think we are sure #1 is going to have the legs to carry all that stuff and worse it may be the wrong item to place/wedge all the other concerns along with.

And saw this on the web:
Numerous studies have shown that two racial variables affect capital punishment sentencing: the race of the perpetrator and the race of the victim. First, defendants convicted of the homicide of a white victim are substantially more likely to face the death penalty than those convicted of killing nonwhite victims.
White people constitute half of murder victims in the United States each year,
70 but 77% of persons executed since 1976 were convicted of killing white victims. Comparatively, black people also constitute half of murder victims,72 but only 13% of persons executed since 1976 were convicted of killing black victims.
A 1990 Government Accountability Office survey of 28 separate studies found that in 82% of the studies, the race of the victim was shown to influence the likelihood of a defendant receiving the death penalty, with those convicted of murdering white victims more likely to be sentenced to death than those
convicted of murdering black victims even when the cases were controlled for crime-specific variables.
I would add police officer training and professionalism to the list. My biggest issue with anything that's happened is that several officers have appeared on film telling protesters they will shoot them and to "fuck off" (or variations). If you work for a telemarketing company and you tell a particularly awful customer to "fuck off," you're getting fired on the spot. I'm of the frame of mind that we should hold police to a slightly higher standard than a minimum wage telemarketer. So, hey, is that protester really annoying you to the point where you need to scream "I will fucking kill you"? That lack of professionalism means you aren't fit to be a police officer. Maybe you should go into telemarketing.
It would be interesting to note how many on that list of crimes are found guilty and what sentences they will receive.

Who knows maybe the people who conducted that study were high or something.

criminal stats overwhelmingly affect blacks, because blacks are overwhelmingly poverty stricken. always been my thought.
to me, its a poverty issue at the core.
