Where is the black leadership now that a grand jury has decided not to indict the police officer that killed Michael Brown?
Where is Al Sharpton? He advertises himself as a spokesman for the best interests of black America. But he is absent.
Where is Jesse Jackson, another popular media personality who says he speaks for black America? He’s missing in action, too.
It breaks my heart to see televised images of violence from Ferguson, Missouri juxtaposed next to President Obama, the first black president. The president represents black power beyond anyone’s imagination just a few years ago.

It depends on whether NG was called out as front-line troops or as back-office workers to free up police (who are supposed to be better trained for non-lethal intervention).
Adding guns to a mixer like this is a mistake if the gun holders are not trained in the applicable rules of engagement.
Shouldn’t be a call to anything. Obey the laws! Period! (Well, at least if you bend them, don’t break them!)
Sadly, I will be breaking bread on Thursday with some family members that do epitomize the liberal mindset. Pray for me.
The rule: "I live and you may die!"
jc,
I believe in the truth and justice.
When a man attacks a police officer, the officer is justified in defending himself.
Native American cop, Korean assailant...
Croatian American cop, Caucasian assailant...
Doesn’t matter to me.
...but it does matter to those who are racist and seek any opportunity to bearing false witness as a means of getting stuff.
The answer lies in addressing the culture of the community that produces the criminal and that is in no way limited to one race or the other.
Maybe the Democrats should introduce a "Restoring Community Confidence in Law Enforcement" bill which will stipulate that whenever a member of the African American community is killed by a law enforcement officer on duty, the grand jury must indict said officer, if said officer is of the Caucasian race.
“work toward a vision of justice”
BS.
Want blacks to have better lives?
Teach them the rules.
THE RULES
1. Complete school.
2. Get a job.
3. Get married.
4. THEN and only then have children.
Your chances of living in poverty in the U.S. are almost zero if you follow this exact order.
Sigh. If only those needing to see and comprehend these words could. BTW, thank you for your service and that of every active duty and reserve member of all branches of the military. Your service allows the rest of us to enjoy the blessings of this great nation.
Where is the black leadership? Well at least they have leadership. It is amazing to me how the asian community can even remotely function with no high profile asian leadership at all
Did he denounce the black jurors too? Or just the white ones?
jeremiah nixon is a worthless pos.
Let’s hope this is the beginning of the end of his political career.
Has any information come out on whether or not the vote was unanimous? If it wasn’t the breakdown would not necessarily be on racial lines. A number of the witnesses who corroborated Darren Wilson’s version were black.
Nixon was looking ahead at a US Senate run in two years.
I think it got fatally singed in Ferguson.
