Ferguson Riots

Featured Replies

It said in an article that the grand jury has been seated since May. Are they sequestered like a regular jury? Having this going since May is crazy.

It's incredibly rare for a grand jury to do what this one just didhttp://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/ferguson-michael-brown-indictment-darren-wilson/

I think gj meet a few times a month,and they usually are considering more than one case. They're typically aa rubber stamp or a shield.

No. They met like once a week and unlike most grand juries where a prosecutor presents enough evidence to get an indictment after which point a trial would start the prosecutor decided to present all of the evidence, including testimony of the defendant.

 

All of which is not particularly common and makes a decent case that the prosecutor was trying to make sure an indictment did not happen.

Good. That makes much more sense.

So, at least 1, possibly 2 police cars on fire, lots of tear gas already deployed, several stores broken into and a couple being looted, some people pushing back against the looters but not enough, with an army moving in on top of that. Pretty much exactly the same setup we saw when this first broke out.

Police need to get these destructive animals off the streets

This is just crazy.. Cop car burned. Looting while just taking orange soda. This is just stupid

I would get perma-banned if I responded to this post the way I want to.

 

You have got to be kidding.

People are also burning American Flags in the streets...

Good on ya Ferguson. Shining example of how you can break sterotypes.... sigh.

We're a civilized society. This is the opposite of civilized.

People who riot don't care about what just happened. They have s*** lives and want free booze.

If I'm a parent I'm happy they decided that. Who knows how crazy this will get. Hopefully it'll be a whole lotta nothing.

 

 

SOLD! The type of animals being dealt with here. Lol!

Steady gunfire. Hundreds of shots. Stay classy guys.

I'm appalled at how the announcement was handled. To tell the family at the same time you told everyone else on national TV...that's awful.

 

That's like LeBron and The Decision, except this is a much more pressing matter.

Injustice!!

 

Burn that little Caesars!
