A grand jury has convened to determine what charges, if any, will be brought against Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson, the officer who shot and killed Michael Brown earlier this month.
Over at The New Republic, Yishai Schwartz argues that a conviction against Wilson is impossible because of Missouri's self defense laws
[Snip]
If Wilson isn't indicted by the grand jury or is acquitted at trial, the Brown family will most certainly file a wrongful death lawsuit. I also wouldn't be surprised if Eric Holder were to pursue a case against Wilson for federal civil rights violations. But that will do little to mollify the mob out for Wilson's blood. if Wilson isn't indicted and convicted then the unrest in Ferguson will resume with a vengeance as Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Spike Lee stoke the flames.

If the shop owners begin to pop a few of the looters, it would rapidly decrease the looting.
Good points-—fingerprint AND DNA.....solid gold evidence.
Yeah, facing the reality of a felony murder charge will cause you to figure out the truth real quick.
What needs to happen is that Wilson gets relocated at Eric Holder’s expense.
Who released the cops name anyway? Was it the Regime?
Liberals decry that we need to lower the toll on Gaia by lowering the population. They dream of taking out the Conservstives but the inner cities they created will take themselves out instead.
But balance will be achieved.
What’s interesting is if any of those store owners shot the looters which they had every right to do, no doubt they would have been charged with murder and racism.
What Will Happen to Officer Darren Wilson?
He will be crucified on the altar of the privileged class. Blacks can kill blacks, they can openly attack white people on the street but kill one thug and the someone has to pay.
Because nothing say's *Justice* like STEALING other people's property.
I notice the invasion on our southern border has been completely forgotten...
The number of autopsies is questionable. The first autopsy was performed by the St Louis medical examiner. The supposed second autopsy was done by a fake non-doctor named Shawn Parcells. Dr Badan did not participate in that autopsy and arrived in town two days after it was completed and only commented on the one done by the fake non-doctor Parcells. Attorney General Holder was going to have a third autopsy done but to my knowledge that has not been completed yet.
What message does this send other police officers? Just let the thugs who stole the cigars walk down the middle of the street. An altercation could make the thug mad and things could get out of hand and then you will spend the next five years in court.
Law and order will be restored through out the country. /s
Remember, the cops are only minutes away when seconds count, on second thought they may not be coming at all. Good luck America.
That scan of an eye is an example pic from this site:

Scroll down a bit.
Exactly. It doesn’t matter if there wasn’t a fracture. Based on what we’re told it appears brown punched him and tried to get his gun. If true that is enough.
Even if none of that happened but Brown charged him I would think he had reasonable cause to shoot him.
If his eye heals enough to allow him to return to duty, he'll return to duty.
If not, disability retirement with full or nearly full pay.
Pretty much what would and should happen to any of us who were assaulted, injured and defended ourselves with lethal force from a follow-on murderous attack.
Wilson might as well be placed in something akin to the Witness Protection Program. Even that may not be enough.
Agreed. My perception is that the lynch mobs’ values about what is reasonable are fundamentally different from the mainstream values that undergird the “contract” society asks police to enforce as “law & order”. (This is precisely what they perceive as racially-motivated injustice).
They might concede that Brown stole the cigars, roughed up the store owner, strutted down the center of the street (a passive-aggressive assertion of control if there ever was one), assaulted Officer Wilson, ran away, then charged back at him, and STILL believe that Wilson murdered an unarmed child out of racial hatred, because they dismiss all Brown’s problematic behavior:
1) cigar theft (store owner steals from the community every day by charging high prices; “he didn’t built that”);
2) roughing up the clerk (foreign devil disrespected Mike and was racist for assuming he was stealing the cigars and therefore deserved it);
3) dope in system (just normal teen behavior);
4) strutting down middle of street blocking traffic (black people get shot for merely walking down the street);
5) punched the officer (eyewitness says cop attempted to pull 300# Mike through the truck window; eye injury was self-inflicted/faked);
6) charged at Officer (but Mike had his hands up while charging; should have fired a warning shot; should have wrestled with him; etc).
It is a fact established by x-rays, witness testimony, and the hospital. It would hold up in court.
What will happen is he hanged on the courthouse lawn at noon by Jesse, Al and Holder after bowing down and kissing their rosie red behinds or in a more polite racially biased society 25 to life.
What should happen is honored with a key to the city which he should turn down flat and a year’s salary to help him relocate so he never has to set foot in that turd world hell hole again.
