If officer Darren Wilson gets away with this the next protests will make the first ones look like a sunday school walkathon.
Except you just know what has been spewed by the media, you don't know all the evidence, you were not there, so really you know jack . A jury will look at the evidence and make a determination, you are not on that jury so feel free to make whatever incriminating b.s. posts you like.

Yes, absolutely. But no more absurd than a cop would straight up execute a man in front of several potential witnesses in broad daylight. Regardless of what actually happened this case is going to be absurd.

People do extraordinary things when their higher reasoning centers are being drown out in high stress situations. Darren could very well have killed a submissive man in broad daylight in front of witnesses, and Michael could have decided to attack the man pointing a gun at him.

Update.

Police chief offers apologies.
http://news.nationalpost.com/2014/09...s-of-your-son/


Department of Justice tells Ferguson police to stop wearing " I am Darren Wilson bracelets" and to Start wearing their name tags again as the police officers had stopped wearing them.

Any opinions on #hoodsoff? IMO, this is the dumbest Anon move I have ever seen. Being a degenerate KKK member doesn't mean one should die, and I'm sure someone will get shot because of this doxxing.

Don't be a member of a hate group.

Problem solved.

Also, hilarious nickname/post context combination.

This is not going to be good.

I'm betting that there's no indictment.

How much information does the Grand Jury has to release if they choose not to indict?

You act like every move every perpetrated by Anon is by the same people, rather than whatever faceless internet denizens decide to take up arms.

I guess I've always seen Anon as a brand... like the 4chan echo-chamber is Nissan and Anon is Infiniti. They've championed some decent causes in the past. But you're right, that's not the correct way to see Anon.

Only surprise left in this will be the response when the grand jury does not indict. Mass riots or peaceful protests? Either way CNN has a massive hard on right now.

Reaction will be riots and looting if there is an indictment.

If there is no indictment, then there will be riots and looting.

Why do you say this? I would have guessed there would only be riots and looting if there isn't an indictment.

I get what he's saying. There will be a collective rage towards the cops if there's an indictment. It will be all about revenge

If there's not an indictment there will be a rage against the justice system.

I'm sure it's not going to end well, whatever the decision is.

Yeah, that's my feeling, too. No matter what comes back, things are going to get ugly.
