U.S. civil rights advocates aired their concerns about the recent Michael Brown shooting to the United Nations in Geneva, according to a press call from the organizations on Wednesday.

“This issue was front and center,” Hilary O. Shelton, director of the NAACP Washington Bureau, explained during the call.

According to Shelton, Trayvon Martin’s mother Sabrina Fulton and Jordan Davis’s father Ron Davis told their stories about losing their teenage children in shootings in each of the pre-briefings of the process.

“I think that everyone was outraged and horrified to hear that, yet again, it had happened in St. Louis, Missouri,” he said.

The group of activists presented to a U.N. panel in Geneva, Switzerland, documenting their concerns of U.S. compliance with the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (CERD) treaty.

Hillary also pointed out that U.N. delegates at the hearing made a point of asking the U.S. delegation about African-Americans being “disportionately targeted” by law enforcement....

Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of Christians are being slaughtered or run out of their homeland.

Seems GENOCIDE would get their attention.

Of course they are. They’ve been planning for a situation like this.

The police chief just released new information. The officer has a swollen face from being punched by Brown.

Blacks are 100x more likely to get shot by another black than by a policeman. They don’t really give a flip when that happens. Seems so many of them value violence more than life.

Their families are broken. Almost 80% of the fathers don’t live with the mother and child. The mother may have children by several different men. How can they expect a child to grow up in that environment? This type of family has never existed before in a civilized society and it doesn’t seem to be showing any signs of improvement.

The ones that don’t care enough to give their very own children a good family environment, don’t care about anyone.

I’m still calling it a rumor but I’m hearing on the net that there is an extensive police record as a minor from the St Ann Police department that includes burglary, armed criminal action, multiple counts of assault.

We’ll see what shakes out in a few days.

Get their attention? Oh, it got their attention alright. The Muzzie loving SOBs at the UN are cheering it on.

You know the Democrats are in complete desperation mode when they’re scaring up the minority vote and it’s only August. They’re not just throwing out the race card now. Hell, they’re throwing out the entire deck of race cards. Fear is all the left can sell to its zombies, excuse me constituents.

If the UN wants to get involved with something, let them turn their efforts towards the ISIS genocide of Christians, including crucifixions, mass executions, mass burials, the raping of young girls, the beheading of children and other unspeakable atrocities.

The UN, by their inaction, has blood on their hands.
