Calm has come to Ferguson, Missouri, after nights of violent unrest over the shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown. But a crucial question lingers: What happens if the grand jury considering the case doesn't return a charge against the officer?

Good question, but not one that the grand jury ought to consider.
I’m worried about their safety, however.
The “cough, cough” guvner, AG and el prezidente need to come out now and clearly state the outcome of the jury, if any, will be respected and that no rioting will be tolerated.
If they want to riot, loot, burn, and kill ... Suppress them by whatever means necessary.
Things will escalate..instead of throwing their urine, the natives will start flinging their poo instead.
Just imagine that whumping sound that a gasoline explosion makes
That would be the logical consequence of that the loudmouths are asking for. Have they really thought this through?
The blacks will go ape. Seriously.
Ferguson will likely be acquitted in the trial, but that will offer the opportunity for more riots and "dialog about race" which is exactly what the race-baiters want.
Since any charges are not scheduled to be given until at least October [meaning “after the midterm elections”], probably nothing will happen, except that there will be lots of howling, some demonstrations, and we will be hearing about Michael Brown for the rest of our lives, just as we will be hearing about Trayvon Martin for the rest of our lives. Any human death is tragic, but not all human deaths require recompense.
Zimmerman all over again.
Just like “innocent Palestinian civilians” they’re not doing a damned thing to stop them, mostly because they’re too busy rooting for them.
If somehow there are no local charges brought, the Feds are on the case and will make sure Officer Wilson spends the rest of his life in jail or on the run!
Of course they'll riot, that's what they do. Then, after awhile, things will settle down until the next time.

Certainly they could charge his accomplice with robbery and felony murder.
I have absolutely no faith that the right thing will happen in Ferguson. What should happen is that Martial (not marshall) law is declared and it is announced in media (all forms) that curfew is announced and ANYONE who is outside after dark will be shot down like the criminals that they are. This should include media (read into that what you want). BUT WE ALL KNOW THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN.
target practice will continue, potentially.
It would appear that there ought not be charges, except for the other accomplice in the strong-arm robbery, who then filed a false police statement.
I sure hope they charge him.
I’ve been saying.... its an area of 3 or 4 blocks. Put a tall fence around all of them, slide food under it each day.... and call it good.
