ST. LOUIS — The father of a black 18-year-old shot to death by a white police officer in Ferguson pleaded Sunday for a “day of silence” as he lays his son to rest Monday.
“Tomorrow all I want is peace,” Michael Brown Sr. told hundreds of people in St. Louis’ largest city park during brief remarks at a festival that promotes peace over violence. “That’s all I ask.”(continued)

For all the calls for silence, I’m sure hearing a lot of comments.
Saint Charging Bull did enough of that all on his lonesome.
By silence, I presume that he means peace.
Lets hope that they (the looters and rioters) respect his wishes.
Peace...and a big check.
A day of silence?
I’d challenge them to have a month of silence. If that goes well, maybe a year or a decade.
At least Michael Brown received justice before his funeral.
He had a ‘dad’?................
Yes, lets not do anything to defile the memory of Michael Brown, a black hoodlum that tried to jack an officer, and wound up put down instead. Can anything defile the memory of an a-hole like that?
Well ten days of rioting and a funeral as if the man were a head of state might do it.
Might? Who are we kidding. This clown act continues, and only one or two blacks in the nation have stood up and old it like it is.
Until other blacks come to their senses, I’m going to have to consider them incapable of grasping truth. I have been trying to give blacks more credit, but I’m at the end of my patience.
If a white kid pulled the Michael Brown routine, I’d be saying that he got what was coming to him. Now for Michael Brown, I’m supposed to fee pity for the guy.
Not a chance of that..
(Nothing to “defile” the name of Michael Brown)
Brown did a good job of defiling it all by himself.
24 hour coverage on CNN and PMSNBC for Saint Michael. A national day of mourning and flags flown at half staff to be ordered by OFraud.
Take a look at the funeral they are really not calling for peace..at least when I looked in.They have a full house fighting to see who can get the most time on TV I think..These trouble makers are not all from the town the thug was killed in..
Shouldn’t’ they be more concerned about uttering things that defile the name of God?
Did he REALLY order flags to half staff?
Mike Brown, crap wrapped in skin thuggin and robbin, just wanted to be a cRap artist and bling laden playa.
If ONLY the eeeeeevil light skinned devils had left him alone!
*nose blow honk*
How’s that for a thug eulogy?
He should be heaped with scorn, not praise and pity.
“Michael Brown’s dad urges ‘day of silence’ “
Tell it to the Justice Brothers.
A day of silence?
A whole day?
The victims of 9/11 rated all of a single moment of silence and this narcissistic moron wants us to give his gangster thug son a whole day?
Screw that
