Do we know for sure the man murdered the nights of the riots had, in fact, testified to the grand jury?

That’s an important bit of information I’ve never seen confirmed or denied by the LSM.

“That’s an important bit of information I’ve never seen confirmed or denied by the LSM.”

That doesn’t fit into the MediaMatters/DNC-approved Current Truth(tm) narrative, so it must be ignored.

Oh...
You are racist for daring to mention it.

Was it the same as this one? They deleted a Ted Cruz posting of mine this morning for no apparent reason that I know of.

There were also photos of the victim with cash and he allegedly was a drug dealer.

That was yet another HUGE hole in the MSM version of events: Fire a gunshot in the car on purpose so everyone in the area will hear and come be a witness... possibly with cell phone cameras on?

Three had the guts to testify what really happened to the grand jury. No doubt there were more that followed the ‘snitches get stitches’ stay quit approach.

Rush made a good point today that the facts of Michael Brown don’t matter. He’s now a symbol and they aren’t going to let you take away the symbol. Facts are irrelevant. That sums up the liberal attitude. There is no truth or God. There’s just power, spin, and what we tell the stupid American public happened.

The timing of all this is interesting. Blacks are by far the biggest losers from illegal immigration. Low skilled, low education jobs are all going to Hispanics now. I know many business owners who exclusively hire “Mexicans” (what they call all Hispanics) over blacks.

What better timing to have some non-issue like this keep the black masses distracted while handing over their jobs and futures to Hispanics.

He said he was unaware there were shots in the car or that black witnesses said Michael charged the cop. Then said he doesn’t trust the media even though he is a member.

Pray America is waking

He was the primary witness. The only one whose testimony perfectly matched the photography available.

Sometimes he says things that I think are outrageous, but this is one guy who fits that old wisdom about free speech perfectly: "I may not like what you have to say, but I'll always defend your right to say it."

Kudos for Barkley for having the courage to speak his mind even when it is politically incorrect to do so.

Do a Google search on "Charles Barkley quotes" to see why he's long been one of the most entertaining people in sports media for years. LOL.

Just a couple of my favorites:

"I had to explain to my daughter why that skank Monica Lewinski has an hour special on HBO this weekend."

"Well, when I went off to college, the guys I used to hang with were pumping gas and voting Democrat. Today they're still pumping gas and voting Democrat. Guess the Democrats didn't do much for them."

Interesting perspective from the guy who once said he'd run for governor of Alabama, and that one of his campaign promises would be to schedule a "death week" every year where five of the worst criminals in the state would be executed. LOL.
