    Browns death is maybe the straw that breaks the camels back, or at least I hope so.

    The system is broken.

    Great. Fucking idiots in LA now joining in.

    Running across a major freeway here.

    With cars still driving on it.

    I hope this is the idiocy-level we'll reach tonight in this neck of the country.

    So I just flipped back and apparently it is madness. This is accomplishing nothing and helping no one. What percentage of these "protestors" are even from Ferguson? Feel terrible for the business owners watching their livelihoods burn.

    Ferguson is tiny so not many. The people blocking the highway by where I live look to be 90% SLU students.

    "No justice, no peace"

    Seriously? So since its apparent that Wilson acted in self defense and the evidence shows that Brown was the aggressor, the "citizens" of Ferguson are going to make THEIR city a war zone. Makes perfect sense to me.

    Outside agitators who wanted exactly what we are seeing now.

    You can go back in this thread (and others) and see plenty of evidence posted about what is wrong with the system, police abuse and obvious racial profiling among other things.

    I could go on and on but I think a good place to start is to watch this documentary.

    The system is rigged and fucked.

    I'm not saying the system does not have its flaws, but is it possible that the grand jury ruled correctly based on the evidence they had?

    I've heard no shots in the back. I've heard Brown attacked several times. I've heard DNA on pants, shirt, and inside car of Wilson's. I've also heard many key witnesses recanted their testimony- saying they were influenced by social media.

    They are releasing all the evidence from what I have heard. This should help make things a little clearer, but it really is hard to know what to think given the media playing us like fiddles over the last few months.

    Ok, but what was rigged in this case?
