The father of Michael Brown appeared at a news conference Tuesday wearing a T-shirt with the slogan, “No Justice No Peace,” but he did not speak about a grand jury decision not to indict the Ferguson, Missouri, police officer who shot his son.

“He doesn’t want to misspeak because of such emotions that are going through him that will later be held against him,” his lawyer Benjamin Crump said.

“This process is broken. The process should be indicted.”

The idea is to make is so costly to arrest any black person in the hood, it effectively creates “No Go Zones.”

Then guess who moves in?

TROP.

Wait a minute, doesn’t he get to bill the State of Missouri, or the City of Ferguson, or somebody, for all the hours he spent ‘working’ on this case?

The system is broken because we can’t lynch whitey.

Actually, it indicates the exact opposite.

The Giant Thug had committed several crimes in a few minutes that day.

1)stealing
2)assaulting the store owner who tried to stop the theft
3)punching an officer while the officer was in his squad car
4)not stopping when the officer tried to arrest him for punching him in the squad car
5)charging towards the officer once (bang)
6)charging towards the officer again(bang,bang..)
7)within a few feet of the officer, still charging (final bang)

You only get so many chances to be an idiot in one day.

The argument of this “attorney” was indict at any cost and let the judge schedule the execution.

“We who labor here see only the truth.”

How did he ever become a lawyer? (oh yes, they now give out law degrees like candy.)

only if it is a civil rights case.

all he has left is nuisance suit which exposes vexatious litigation charges against the legal team of the family and the family.

“his lawyer Benjamin Crump” should be checked for membership in the Klu Klux Klan/Aryan Nations because I don’t think anyone has done more recently to create new racists where there were none before outside Al, Jessie and Barry.

And if he’s not in their employ/membership, he should be paid for his unintentional volunteer work.

Here in Wisconsin, a person who graduates from a law school in WI, and practices in WI, never even needs to pass the BAR Exam. A little known fact that Mark Belling says on his radio show every now and then (Mark subs for Rush sometimes). This would explain the abundance of lawyers running around Wisconsin.

law schools now have (for a few years now) more first year openings than applications.

Non bankruptcy dischargeable student loans and a cash cow.

ANYONE with a four year degree IN ANYTHING can become a lawyer.

the black community is broken.

and if they will not fix it, everyone else will, one way or another.

blacks do not have carte blanche to commit murder and riot when a real jury hearing real evidence doesn’t come to their desires.

the rest of us are done being target practice for urban feral blacks. it’s important to qualify that b/c there are a sieable numbe of hrd working, well-adjusted to society, blacks who want no part of the mike browns and trayvons of the world that the race baiters lift up as saints.

Crump is a dolt. He mischaraterizes the Grand Jury process, ignores evidence given, and then has the audacity to say that Michael Brown couldn’t testify....Well duh no kidding. The thug attacked a store owner, stole from the store, was strutting in the middle of the street, attacked a police officer and tried to get his gun. Then even though wounded turned back to face the officer and charge him. I don’t care what race you are, that will get you killed. End of story.

I am tired of O’s thugs continuing to race pimp every situation

I think the Police officer should sue the Federal Government for violating his Civil Rights. If and when they try him for Civil Rights violations, it will ONLY be because he is white. It is easily proven in a court. The best defense is a good offense.
