On Monday night, after the release of the grand jury verdict rejecting indictment of Officer Darren Wilson in the Ferguson, Missouri shooting of 18-year-old black man Michael Brown, President Obama took to the microphones. We need to recognize that this is not just an issue for Ferguson, this is an issue for America, he said. [T]here are still problems and communities of color aren't just making these problems up.
Obama was wrong, at least in the case of Darren Wilson. In viewing thousands of pages of FBI interviews and grand jury testimony, it becomes eminently clear that many members of the local community did make up the story about Michael Brown being executed by Wilson and pressured others to lie to police or keep silent.
According to the St. Louis County Police Investigative Report, the mob mentality took root almost immediately after the shooting. By the time detectives arrived at the scene of the incident, there was a large crowd of bystanders and a large uniformed police presence at the scene when detectives arrived. That crowd included both Browns mother and his stepfather, according to witness testimony. The police report states, Many individuals were clearly upset and were expressing their frustration, by at times yelling obscenities and threats, and attempting to encroach on the crime scene itself.
It got worse:
As the scene investigation continued, there were several large groups of hostile individuals around the perimeter of the crime scene. The investigation of the scene was interrupted several times by death threats directed toward police officers and gunshots being fired by an unknown persons around the crime scene.

True. And it was also reported in many media sources - once.
It was specifically and artificially downplayed by all media due to several factors included but not limited to:
1.Upcoming State elections with marijuana on the ballot.
2.Negative stereotypes (true but not PC) that illegal drug usage is pervasive in ALL poor communities.
3.If the majority of people ever put together the numerous instances of “stoned people” who are committing extremely violent acts against others, it would blow the entire manufactured concept of marijuana use as just being a harmless mild, peaceful giggle and munchie inducing temporary high. In 2014, the baggie sold on the street isn't the same herb it was in 1975.
Needless to say, I rarely consider MSM entertainment sources reliable on any given topic....
The real problem with these "communities" is they embrace criminals and criminal behavior, that's why they hate the police police.
Yes, these large cities, such as St. Louis, are forever socialist no matter what.
Blacks will definitely feel the pinch from illegals; at my job legal Hispanic immigrants have already displaced many blacks (and those remaining resent them).
Probably, but by choosing thugs as their “hills to die on” they’re losing any sympathy among non-blacks, and even middle-class blacks who are terrified of the thugs.
IMO, they don’t want sympathy. They want fear.
They have that already; that is why they are avoided like the plague, and Americans are importing people from all corners of the earth to replace them.
Remind me again we would won’t to live with these people?

He is a PAID PROFESSIONAL ACTIVIST, and a MUSLIM.
HE works with the Black Panthers. Here he is with Malik Shabbaz.
Enjoyed your post and agree... (on the subject of false witness)
As I listen to these protesters and rioters and race baiters such as holder, Obama, Sharpton, Crump, I wonder, at what point, do they believe Brown had at least some responsibility for his own demise?
Thanks for the post...
