A grand jury may decide not to indict the officer who shot Michael Brown. If that happens, Ferguson will explode again.
The Rev. Carlon Lee, pastor of Flood Christian Church in Ferguson, Mo., was sending out links to a New York Times story Friday night to friends, family and community members who have spent the last two months absorbed in the events surrounding the death of teenager Michael Brown. The story cited forensic evidence offered by federal officials that showed Browns blood on officer Darren Wilsons uniform and gun, which was found to have been fired inside Wilsons patrol car.
I believe that when people have received (the Times) article and see whats going on it will infuriate people and set us back, Lee said. No matter what happened in (Wilsons) car, Michael Browns hands were up. No matter if he beat the crap out of Officer Wilson, his hands were upa universal sign of surrendering.
Its impossible to tell whether the story being sent out by Lee on Friday night would result in increased action on the streets of Ferguson, but one thing, as it has all along, remains clear: If Wilson isnt indicted chaos will once again reign.
If theres a non-indictment I think youll see an immediate uproar, Lee said. I dont think people have seen the amount of unrest and anger that will come if theres a non-indictment.
If the evidence released Friday is any indication, both are inevitable.

In a way I hope the black destroy their own city. Nothing could please me more because I am getting damn tired of this poor black shi!. This time break out the heavy weapons and convince that it is better to accept the truth than just riot for the hell of it.
Evidence? Doesn’t matter. We get our way or ELSE!
It is easy to ignore this situation if you don’t live near that area, but honestly what do the protesters want? Do they want an all black government and police force? Would they still distrust the police if they were all black? Do they want a type of justice where no evidence is needed and a man is just strung up in the street? Nothing is going to satisfy them. Even if Darren Wilson is indicted and found guilty, they won’t be happy - they WANT to protest and cause trouble. That is the end game, not any sort of justice in their eyes. I believe some involved in keeping the folks angry want Wilson to not be indicted so they can continue to destroy and raise hell.
Thug mentality. Gimme yo money or I'll beat you up. OR, gimme dat cop or we beat everybody up.
Good, let them explode. Bring in the national guard, if they start looting and rioting shoot the mofos down. These people are hypocritical racist feral pigs, they say absolutely nothing about gang shootings but when a punk ass thug who just robbed a store gets shot, most likely because he attacked a cop, they flip out? F them! They want to “explode” bring it on. But of course no doubt though the pussies running things will let the ferals do what they want and more innocent store owners will get screwed.
There goes another wig shop!
Leftwing racists have their agenda to overthrow the Constitution
Truth & Fact: Michael (Son of Obama) Brown is naught but a thug, bully, druggie and would be cop killer!!! End of story!!!
I wonder if the good reverend realizes a person’s hands are up when they approach someone to choke them.
Brown had already struck the officer. Now they want us to believe he was running at the officer to surrender.
I have never in my life seen video of a person surrendering by running at an officer with his/her hands up.
So instead of hearing facts about this incident and realize the guy you were defending wasn’t worthy of the defense, this pastor dismisses the facts, to guess he was innocently charging the officer.
Those are some interesting powers of deduction.
He should be indicted based on community emotion. Evidence shouldn't be considered until trial./s
All I know is that my Slavic (Slave-ic) ancestors came to the US completely legally in the early 1920s, about 55 years after slavery was abolished. They were treated like slaves in the Pennsylvania coal mines and probably never in their lives interacted with a black person. And really, I didn’t either until I went to college. So, all this injustice stuff, ya know, I really feel bad about it.
