Ferguson update: hacktivism, smear campaigns and missed court dates

Anonymous says Darren Wilson won't get indicted -- far-right whites pat themselves on the back, Ferguson community undeterred.

FERGUSON, Mo., Oct. 28 (UPI) -- In the wake of the Ferguson Report, Anonymous offshoot Operation Ferguson issued a series of tweets claiming to confirm Darren Wilson will not be indicted by a grand jury for shooting Mike Brown. In a case now as much defined by leaked information as racial tensions, Operation Ferguson claims two sources confirmed the grand jury's inaction against Wilson and are intentionally delaying the announcement until after the Nov. 4 midterm elections.

We have been receiving very reliable leaks on this for
several days. As we have always done, we chose to wait
until we were sure. We are.

The news comes on the heels of the leaked Ferguson Report, which seemingly confirmed Wilson's account of the incident with Brown -- news that's sent Wilson's few supporters into a public victory lap of decrying Brown and the protesters in Ferguson.

"Unburdened by jobs or other responsibilities, these people are free to drift from city to city and cause to cause, occupying Wall Street and decrying capitalism in New York City one day, lamenting global warming in Chicago on another day, and now marching against police brutality in St. Louis today," says the historically far-right National Review. Author Jack Dunphy used the Ferguson Report to springboard talking points about racial tensions being exaggerated by those with little connection to the St. Louis suburb.

"These people's raison d'être is to march and express their outrage; the target of that outrage is whatever is most convenient at the time."

In an editorial for AllHipHop.com, Saint Louis University Law Professor Justin Hansford points out the leak of the Ferguson Report was an irrefutable criminal act, and, in Hansford's eyes, is not being investigated as part of a conscious smear campaign to paint Mike Brown as deserving of his fate.

"As a law professor I can say that this was illegal and wrong, but the prosecutor's office has denied involvement and doesn't even feel the need to investigate who leaked it," notes Hansford.

"Even attorney general Eric Holder expressed his 'exasperation' at the 'selective leaks.' But it fits a pattern. On August 14, I was there standing on West Florissant when protesters peacefully celebrated the removal of Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson from authority over the protest site. He responded to the victory by releasing the video of Mike Brown in the convenience store."

Meanwhile, Wilson remains essentially in hiding, missing four more court appearances since no-showing to testify against an alleged drug dealer he won an accommodation for arresting.

"[Officer Wilson] beat my ass in my front yard while I was handcuffed then gave me six felonies," described the defendant in that case.

Each of the five cases Wilson failed to testify in was dismissed.

The worst they can come up with now is that he missed some court dates while in seclusion, hiding from a mob that wants him dead? This thing must be just about over, then. Oh, and he has many more "supporters" than you think, Matt. And a writer for an international news service doesn't know the difference between "won a commendation" and "won an accommodation"? And if the National Review seems far-right, but you'll quote chapter-and-verse from AllHipHop.com, what does that say about your world-view?

The administration is providing the leaks. You can count on it. I do not believe, myself, that the admin wants any further rioting. I think they’ve done their little skit and have moved on. If Sharpton and Jackson want to make more of this than they already have, then so be it, but I do NOT think the admin is quite that dumb. This has been 300% overplayed as it is.

...he won an accommodation for arresting.

I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night. The accommodations were very nice.

The “National Review” is much more libertarian pro-capitalism than far right. For the Marxist who wrote this hit piece, I can understand the confusion.

Remember, we are fighting the mainstream media and academia more than the self-destructing Democratic party.

“The administration is providing the leaks.”

Leaking the no bill before the election will enrage the usual racist hucksters and self-hating whites in the demoncRAT party and they will then be motivated to vote.

I hope the no bill comes AFTER the mid-term elections.

video of Mike Brown in the convenience store."

Yes, just standing around, doing nothing, at worst loitering. Oh wait, he was "in the convenience store" attacking an employee and stealing.

Wherever Africans go, they bring Africa with them.....Roughly 2,300 immigrants, many of them from Africa, are roaming the streets and sleeping in makeshift camps in and around Calais while waiting to attempt the final leg of their bid to reach Britain

Doesn't look like that belongs in Europe?

what do you expect from "college trained" any more? It's learning howto effectively propagandize and such. Not junk like grammar or diction or vocabulary or punctuation. That stuff is like so twentieth century.
