In my opinion, here's the money quote from the Ferguson fiasco.
"Before the results of the private autopsy were released, witnesses on social media, during interviews with the media, and even during questioning by law enforcement claimed that they saw Officer Wilson stand over Michael Brown and fire many rounds into his back.So are those who lied to the police being held accountable? Are those who are burning, looting, and rioting being held accountable?
"Others claimed that Officer Wilson shot Mr. Brown in the back as Mr. Brown was running away.
"However, once the autopsy findings were released showing that Michael Brown had not sustained any wound to the back of his body, no additional witnesses made such a claim and several witnesses adjusted their stories in subsequent statements. Some even admitted that they did not witness the event at all, but merely repeated what they heard," the prosecuting attorney said. (emphasis added)
Of course not.
Because to do so would be racist...
Peaceful protestors seeking justice for gentle giant Michael Brown. |

It is coming close to us having to do it ourselves... Just sayin...
Anon - it's not just the 'protesters' who weren't there. Neither were the 'journalists,' racial agitators, sleazy politicians, and everyone else seeking to self-promote themselves at the expense of a dead teenager and a pilloried cop.
NFO - Sadly, I think you're right. The gov and the mayor don't even have enough guts to instruct the cops to enforce the laws against rioting and looting.
