Protesters shouted Hands up, dont shoot as they gathered at the protest, echoing the chant that has taken hold in Ferguson witness accounts say Brown had his hands up when he was shot dead two weeks ago.
T-shirts read Black man walking, dont shoot, Black lives matter and I have a dream, in reference to the most famous speech by the assassinated 1960s civil rights leader Martin Luther King.
Im here today because I dont want my nephews, who are aged one, two and three, to have to march when their generation grows up, said Carolyn Butts, 47, who publishes African Voices magazine, as she headed towards the protest.

That is correct. Urban blacks need to teach their children that the thug culture is not for them. They need to teach honesty and dignity and following the golden rule, not brainwash them that whitey is evil and cops are bad and that they need to be “separate” from mainstream society.
Join the American melting pot and get some non-black friends and place high value in education and have some goals for a successful life and get to bed at a reasonable hour instead of being on the streets at 3:00 AM and you’ll greatly diminish your chances of getting shot by the cops or anyone else. Oh, and don’t rob liquor stores and beat up the clerks.
What angers me is seeing these stupid white liberals marching as well. All they’re doing is encouraging this nonsensical thinking on the part of black people and patronizing them. All I can say to our black American brothers is “get a freaking clue”.
...so they’re going to crack down on men who assault police officers and commit strong arm robbery?
If they REALLY wanted to take this government to task for their childrens’ future, then they should be protesting the piles of debt they will all be saddled with for their entire lives.
What is this? National Band Practice? Nobody HAS to march. This isn't 1968 anymore, though so many don't want to leave all that behind. Newsflash: there are about a million other more beneficial things out there to do than march about every perceived injustice.
hey ..... no one wants violence.... so teach kids / adults NOT TO RESIST ARREST.... problem SOLVED...... genius
and keep dirtbags like Sharpton and Jackson et al away from emotional uneducated illiterate easily fooled dumbasses... Did Sharpton ever pay the judgement associated with the Tawana Brawley criminal fraud he perpetrated.... did the kid in Crown Heights MURDERED under Sharptons inflaming the community COME BACK TO LIFE... that pos belngs in prison.... did he ver pay his back taxes... take the jerk off tv and let him rot.. and fool his “congregation”... race hustler supreme
More horse manure and race baiting. Why don’t you people grow up and act like intelligent adults instead of ignorant hoodlums?
