He said “I do” while protests raged.

Amid an uncertain future and an impending grand jury decision, Ferguson, Mo., police Officer Darren Wilson married his girlfriend, fellow Ferguson cop Barbara Spradling, last month.

The 28-year-old, awaiting news on whether he will stand trial for fatally shooting unarmed black teen Michael Brown in August, tied the knot Oct. 24 with 37-year-old colleague Spradling, a 10-year veteran of the suburban St. Louis police force.

The couple, who share a home in nearby Crestwood, Mo., applied for a license last month in Clayton and were married in Oakland, Mo., by a municipal judge.

They’re salivating at the thought of lynching them both! I hope Missouri Freepers are armed, because tonight may be a firestorm

This is as low as a journalist can sink. It seems to me they are clearly trying to incite the more aggressive types around Ferguson to commit a violent crime against Wilson and/or his wife. Maybe they want them beaten or worse ...maybe burn the home they identified in print.

If an attorney general as activist oriented as Eric Holder was working for the people this action might well be worth investigating for attempted murder.

If the media vans were not on site in Ferguson, would anyone be out in the streets protesting? It's doubtful.........

The Daily Snooze made sure to put the city of the Wilsons residence in the article. They are hoping these 2 are wiped out.

The bride is 9 years older than the 28-yr old Wilson.

And this trivia tidbit has exactly what to do with the Wilson-Brown shooting? So what NY Daily News — at least he married a woman instead of some gender bender.

Anyone have an idea as to HOW the Times was able to get a copy? According to Missouri Law, Vital Records are NOT available to the public. Like Barack’s Birth Certificate (in Hawaii) Vital Records can only be obtained by the individual, guardian or other legal party. https://health.mo.gov/data/vitalrecords/index.php

Older women are sexy and more mature. They don’t play games like the young gals.

A good drenching by a fire-hose will make it too cold for them to be out though.

They’re already having “for worse” - let’s hope they get to “for better.” Congratulations to them.

Hear hear. They don’t have as many sexual hang ups (usually) as the young ones either. Good luck to Darren and his bride. Their projected life spans are about the same.

Which makes them unambiguous targets for the left. The media wouldn't enjoy having to explain the scale of "Victim Hardness" to those unfortunate gems who don't happen to be the diamonds.
