“so was Michael Brown a fleeing felon or did he charge the officer?”
I haven’t heard him called a “fleeing felon” so I guess it’s option B.

The racism in this acquittal is breathtaking.
Sorry Honey, but this wasn't an "acquittal". It was a finding by a grand jury that there isn't any evidence the cop committed a crime. Jeesh....

So, a dozen Twitterers comprise a “Nation”???!!!!
I expect no less from a media source embedded in Obama’s hip pocket. And buried should deep in his backside!
Quiet as a church here in Falls Church, VA.
I guess that “riots in every major city of the U.S, was so much horse crap.

What were they trying to indict him for? It wasn't cold-blooded murder, Michael Brown had already attacked the Officer, and from witness accounts, after walking away, when he would have lived, chose instead to show his butt, turn around and run the Officer down. He was a much bigger man than the officer, by all accounts, and could have done some real damage to the officer, if the officer hadn't protected himself. By the placement of the bullets, it seemed as though the officer was trying first to shoot to warn, then shoot to slow Michael Brown down, then shoot to wound, but, because Brown went into a head butting stance, the last couple of shots got him in the head. The Grand Jury had no other choice but to NOT indict him on murder, or even manslaughter charges, because it was self-defense.
Of course, all that will be lost on the perpetually aggrieved, like the race hustlers, poverty pimps, and CodePink.

My son lives near Falls Church. In fact, he teaches at a college near there.

Really, NBC? The nation is upset?
I was satisfied with the ruling.
I am part of the nation.
Soooo....your headline, like much of your content, is a lie.

It isn’t about Darren Wilson, it is about the police. They, the Black, want to be the police. Nothing else will stand. .

The Grand Jury was impaneled in May for the entire St. Louis County Area. The makeup accurately reflects the composition of the County per local News reports.

The problem is that, as it was with the Rodney King decision, the media created expectations that the evidence did not support. So people began believing what they heard on the the TV, and when the legal system didn't support that, they blamed it on 'whitey', and a legal system that's rigged against black people.
Sadly, too many in the media don't bother with evidence, they're too interested in how people FEEL, which is irrelevant to the legal system, as it should be. I'm glad the Grand Jury released its findings and the evidence used to support it. Of course, for the perpetually aggrieved, it will make absolutely no difference, but maybe the people who read it with open minds will begin to understand WHY the police officer was not indicted, even though there were 5 choices given for doing so.
