One march was led by his father. The other by his mother. One went to the cemetery where he is buried, the other to a patch of black asphalt where his body lay for more than four hours.

Ah, the Gentle Giant! Will they rough up a storekeeper to commemorate the day?
See my tagline
“He wasn’t a good thug but he was our thug. Whenever he committed a strongarmed robbery he’d share his Swisher Sweets with us.”
No law enforcement officers were killed in the making of this Mockumentary.
“...and then turned to the crowd of demonstrators, saying, “Burn this motherf-—er down” and “Burn this bitch down,” according to a New York Times video.
The comments by Brown’s stepfather, Louis Head, came shortly before an eruption of rage by some protesters ...”
