NORMANDY, Mo. (AP) — Michael Brown once told an uncle that the world would know his name one day, and he was right. Fifteen months after the black 18-year-old's killing by a white Ferguson police officer made him a key figure in the debate over the treatment of blacks by U.S. law enforcement, though, Brown lies buried in relative obscurity.
Brown is among the most notable residents of 160-year-old St. Peter's Cemetery, but there is no headstone marking his grave. Instead the burial plot — Section 10, Block F, Lot 12, Grave 4 — is visible only when gazing down at a concrete slab simply spray-painted in orange with "MB."(continued)

Tombstone would cut into profits.
The only thing I remember him for was threatening that poor convenience store owner. He was a thug.
As well they should.
Don’t wanta spend any of dat money on a hunk of stone. Gonna buy me a Cadillac.
Dead thugs lives don’t matter ...
I guess they want a monument.
Kinda hard to steal one of those, though.
What exactly is the purpose of this article? Are we supposed to build a shrine to him instead? A shrine for pilgrims to visit???
And his initials in orange graffiti...fitting somehow.
So are we supposed to set up a shrine to him and have pilgrimages?
Too bad his grave is marked at all. Better that he had had his ashes scattered to the wind.
My prayers for the police officer whose life was ruined because of this thug.
Here lies Michael Beiwn
Gibsmedat!
And with his initials sprayed on with orange graffiti -— fitting somehow.
Isn't he the graphics guy behind those "Sue Xarelto" commercials?
No?
Well, good. Because he ain't really performing up to industry standards.
But the worms are eatin’ good. There was a lot of him.
“Tombstone would cut into profits.”
I was thinking that too. These “parents” only cared about their son after he died, when they could make money on him. Don’t even love him enough to buy a proper headstone for his grave.
No wonder the kids turn into thugs and criminals. They don’t have parents who love them. All they have are a sperm donor and a fertilized egg.
Good. He has paid his debt to society, now he should remain obscure.
“Fifteen months after the black 18-year-old’s killing by a white Ferguson police officer made him a key figure in the debate over the treatment of blacks by U.S. law enforcement, though, Brown lies buried in relative obscurity.”
Congratulations, Mr. Brown on 15 crime-free months!
Way to go!
Which all touches on the subject of how ghetto culture is toxic to raising children. But it is not politically correct to talk about how some people are neglectful in raising their children. In fact liberals call it racist to criticize her to culture.
And Dan Quayle found out how the forces of political correctness come down on you if you criticize how we have normalized single motherhood. Which is also a major part of ghetto culture.
” Are we supposed to build a shrine to him instead?”
A nice Granite urinal?
