Three White House officials will attend the funeral Monday of Michael Brown, the unarmed Ferguson teen shot and killed by a police officer Aug. 9.
According to a White House official, Broderick Johnson, who heads the White Houses My Brothers Keeper Task Force, will attend the service along with Marlon Marshall, a St. Louis native who attended high school with Browns mother. Heather Foster, who works with Marshall in the White House Office of Public Engagement, will also be in the pews at Browns funeral.
Brown was shot six times by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson.
The service is set for 10 a.m. at the Friendly Temple Missionary Baptist Church, where Browns uncle, the Rev. Charles Ewing, will eulogize the teen, whose death has set off protests and conversations about racial profiling and the militarization of the police. The church can accommodate 4,500 people and the arrangements are being paid for by Alpha Phi Alpha, the nations oldest black fraternity.
The Rev. Al Sharpton will also speak at the service, which is likely to draw a large crowd....

Barry is really pissed when Reggie’s is at...’half mast’!! (Barry: “For cryin’ out loud Reggie, can ya just put down the crack pipe for one damn night? Ya know what it does to ya every time.....and then some damn how my Big Mooch beard KNOWS you flunked out again and laughs at me all the next day”!)
General Greene will be getting a huge fanfare in heaven and Michael, well, he’s where God knows that he (Michael) chose to go.
You just made the day so much better; now such bias shown will thwart any judicial means of persecuting Officer Wilson.
Uh-huh. 3 White Crib/Hutters from 0sambo’s race riots team, to attend Fat Thug’s funeral, at US Taxpayers’ expense. Yeah, sure. Sum’ bitch. Natch.

When the very highest Representatives of our Country ,(Obama and Holder both consider black men by the black community), purposely not only side with but ‘stand with’ an individuals of the same race in a case and this before the evidence is presented etc. They have ‘set the pace’ for all we will see following “their position” they've taken.
This is the most racist positions I've ever seen in my life in this country.....there are not enough words to describe this great atrocity of any justice that might hoped to be seen for the Officer who will now bare the brunt of this administration...and he isn't the first. This is way beyond sad....

The flag is so often at half-staff at the post office and high school, I’ve given up any attempts at pretending to wonder who croaked.
Kenya’s under Secretary for Wild Life?
Who cares.
Obama and Co. have degraded the country’s goodwill to the point that, Brown and his phony post-mortem ‘friends’ can pound their troll-sized thug into a rat-hole tomorrow for all I care.
Less than two more years, but it seems like twenty.
...”Less than two more years, but it seems like twenty”....
And it came ‘to pass’.....
Someone please post a list of those White House Officials who attended the funeral of the General Green killed in Afghanistan.........

The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (who admittedly is not a White House official) was there.
