Yes they were engaging in violence. What do you call shooting tear gas into a crowd and using armored vehicles?

It was announced over loudspeakers 5 minutes earlier that anyone in the street was now part of an unlawful gathering, they had time to disperse, and instead kept shooting off guns and throwing rocks and bottles. Its called dispersing a riot/protecting the city.
 
I gotta hand it to the jury, they had the balls to call it as they saw it. I doubt I would have had the courage to do that. I certainly hope that jury list NEVER EVER gets out. There were a few blacks on the panel so that gives it much more credibility.

Well the riots started, I'm praying for no innocent casualties.

Again it's possible that the cop just executed the kid while he had his hands up for disrespecting him. It's also possible I'll win the powerball tomorrow.

I just don't understand how people could objectively lean towards the former given all the info; extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

It's because Wilson was not just accused of murdering Brown. The mindset in the media and the mob was Wilson was on trial for every injustice done against any person of dark skin color in the history of this nation. Injustices have been done to people in the past, that is a proven fact, and therefore Wilson must be found guilty. It doesn't matter what the facts are. Injustices have occurred, Wilson must be punished.

It's a very sad thing to watch...

They gassed the hell out of that one street. I wonder how many protesters have gas masks. Watching ABC news on appletv live stream.

What are protesters trying to accomplish now? There won't be an indictment and no repeat grand jury, so do they have a purpose now or are they just expressing anger?

Expressing anger is my guess.

FTP and anarchy, they are out there to have some fun and a short stay leisurely stay in jail.
 
We need to launch an investigation on mal practice of the prosecutor, and possible disbarment. We need to investigate witness tampering, and juror intimidation. A federal investigation is needed.

No. But we should launch an investigation into why you are so obtuse.

The anger they should be feeling is the anger towards those who manipulated them into believing a false version of reality.

Ain't gonna happen, though.

Exactly. All this shit started because some low-life hooligans LIED to police and the media about what actually happened. Then some low-life political opportunists jumped onboard the ignorance bandwagon and the whole thing deteriorated from there.

Its not quite as bad as the fiasco caused by Mary lying about being a virgin, but it aint good.
