He wasn't uncovered during all of that time, and they couldn't move him until they secured and processed the scene. This investigation was handled by the book. Yes, Officer Wilson has been proven not guilty of murder, but his life has been absolutely ruined by folks who have an evil agenda, truth be damned. | ||

Well put. I'm here in Times Square. No violence ..... Just sporadic tunnel and roadway closures. They moved from the Lincoln tunnel to the FDR drive at 6th street. The part that bothers me is all these identical signs and military like coordination. This does not appear "spontaneous ". | ||

I don't know that "planning" and "coordination" play into it as much as "common thought process" and "internet". Think about it. Hashtag anything, post it, and people across the globe can copy it. If they have the drive to appear "united"...all they have to do is Google it. | ||

Thank you, Officer Wilson for doing your job to protect the community. Thank you, all police officers who put their lives in danger daily to protect us against criminals. Thank you, police officers and former police officers who frequent Badweb! The individuals in the Mob should contemplate that their "outrage" is based on lies fueled by Racists like Obama, Holder, Jackson, and Sharpton. What Obama's Ferguson Sermon Left Out By Michelle Malkin · Nov. 26, 2014 In his 967-word statement to the nation about the Ferguson grand jury decision on Tuesday night, President Obama devoted precisely one sentence to the risks and sacrifices police officers make to keep the peace. One. Obama delivered a tepid, obligatory acknowledgement that “our police officers put their lives on the line for us every single day.” But he sandwiched it between a finger-wagging admonition that cops need to “show care and restraint” and a pandering discourse justifying the “deep distrust” that “communities of color” have toward law enforcement because of the “legacy of racial discrimination in this country.” Note: Multiple African-American witnesses told the panel that teen Michael Brown, suspected of robbing a local market, charged Officer Darren Wilson before his shooting death. The grand jury concluded that there was no probable cause for indicting Wilson after considering hundreds of pages and scores of hours of witness and expert testimony. Yet, Obama’s first priority was to dwell on racial injustice against “communities of color,” and his first instinct was to warn police officers to restrain themselves. Only after expending 756 words on the need to “understand” the “problem” that “communities of color” have with police did Obama address the thugs of color “throwing bottles” and “smashing car windows” and “using this as an excuse to vandalize property” in the name of social justice. The Nobel Peace Prize winner had nothing to say about the hate-filled “F–k the police” refrain from rioters of color in Ferguson and anarchists of pallor in Oakland and Occupy Wall Street pot-stirrers of privilege poisoning social media. The nation’s self-styled healer of souls was mum in response to black radical grievance-mongers' calls to vengefully burn Ferguson to the ground – a seething sentiment echoed the next day by Brown’s stepfather. Mr. Hope and Change stayed silent about the lynch-mob instigators calling for Wilson to be shot and his family murdered. And while the uniter-in-chief has given several public shout-outs to Brown and his family, he has delivered no special national address addressing the families of police officers ruthlessly targeted by domestic terrorists and racist radicals. Obama used his bully pulpit this week to bemoan the “real issues” of discrimination by some police officers. But he said nothing about the murderous strain of racial animus against America’s men and women in blue. It’s part of a longstanding cultural war against cops that has permeated academia, Hollywood, media and “progressive” halls of power for decades – from the “pig”-hating Weather Underground to mainstream rappers to MSNBC’s Al Sharpton to high-ranking convicted cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal’s advocates such as former Obama administration green jobs czar Van Jones. And the bloody beat goes on. In October, a militant black nationalist and jihadist vigilante attacked white New York police officers with a hatchet. Zale Thompson maliciously wounded Officer Kenneth Healey in the head and slashed Officer Joseph Meeker in the arm. Thompson was no poor, uneducated youth. He is a College of New Rochelle liberal arts alumnus and one-time master’s degree candidate at Obama’s alma mater, Columbia University. As the New York Post reported, Thompson was a radical “black power” proponent who converted to Islam, obsessed over jihad, spent months consuming pro-ISIS propaganda and “wanted ‘white people to pay’ for slavery.” Thompson was hailed as a “crusader for justice” by the Queens chapter of the New Black Panther Party. That’s the same anti-white hate group whose members instigated racially charged chaos in Ferguson; racially charged intimidation at a Philadelphia voting booth in 2008 that went unpunished by the Obama administration; and racially inflammatory threats against the innocent Duke lacrosse players exonerated of false rape accusations in 2007. A week after Thompson waged his racist anti-cop jihad, another police officer in Washington, D.C., was ambushed by an ax-wielding assailant in a chillingly similar attack. He remains on the loose. To these men and women of all colors on the front lines, risking their lives against homeland security threats of all kinds, Obama last night offered hundreds of lines of warning and lecturing. But not this one word: “Thanks." http://patriotpost.us/opinion/31279 | ||

The New York Times and Other Members of the Ferguson Hall of Shame by Roger Simon, November 25th, 2014 That the photograph of Walter Duranty — the New York Times Moscow correspondent who deliberately whitewashed Stalin’s 1930s forced starvation of millions of Ukrainians and won the Pulitzer for it — still is on the newspaper’s wall of fame with their other prize winners is apparently no aberration. The New York Times has no moral center. In fact, it’s despicable. On November 24, they published the home address of Officer Darren Wilson. By now most of America knows who Wilson is — the Ferguson, Missouri, police officer exonerated for the murder of Michael Brown, the supposed, three-hundred-pound “gentle giant” who was reportedly on his way to college, but it turns out was holding up convenience stores and trying to grab Wilson’s gun and bashing him in the face all while the officer was sitting in his police car. We also all know the reaction of some of the angrier members of the Ferguson community and those omnipresent “outside agitator” dime-store anarchists to the grand jury announcement — cars torched, minority businesses burned down, looting, gunfire, freeways blocked, etc., etc. A lot of out-of-control mayhem from L.A. to NY with racial hatred fanned at every turn. The NYT apparently doesn’t give a shit (excuse the French, but it’s merited). In the midst of all this, they print Wilson’s address. It was to them “all the news that’s fit to print.” Who cares what might happen to the cop and his family? He’s just a cop, after all, and a white one at that. Definitely not a member of the elite — not bon type, bon genre. (Maybe someone should do a country song — “Two thousand miles from Zabar’s.”) So much for that newspaper. They’re cancer. Not quite cancer but pretty bad is Jay Nixon, the governor of Missouri. Not only did he attempt to prejudge the case, calling for Wilson’s head like some minor league Robespierre months before there was any evidence, but then, on the night of the grand jury announcement, after having brought in the National Guard, he goes completely AWOL and doesn’t use the Guards at all, leaving the poor store owners of Ferguson to fend for themselves, not to mention the police. Everyone got to watch the results on TV. Peter Kinder, the vice governor of Missouri, wants to know what happened. Why no Guards, when they were all set to go? Did the word come down from the White House or the Department of Justice to keep the Guards out? Nixon didn’t answer, just accused Kinder of playing politics. (At least he didn’t play the race card, but that would be hard, white man to white man…. although it’s possible.) So we don’t know… yet. And then there’s Brown’s stepfather who looks about five years older than Brown himself and exhorted the crowds to “Burn the bitch down.” Geraldo wants him indicted, which says a lot. To me he’s a minor player. And finally there’s the Revered Al, a character straight out of the pages of Ralph Ellison’s The Invisible Man. A demagogue with the ear of the president and attorney general, he’s no minor player. No wonder he hasn’t been collared for the 4.5 million in back taxes his various organizations are said to owe. O’Reilly thinks he’s the most hated man in America right now and he may be right. He’s certainly in competition with the KKK of old for outright race incitement, although he hasn’t gone as far as lynching, unless you count the Tawana Brawley case, which was pretty close to that. But the real top of the Ferguson Hall of Shame goes to the people who brought us Ferguson from the beginning. I mean the real beginning. I mean… what happened to black America in the post-civil rights era? Why has such a wonderful group of people who fought so hard against a racist society and won, who brought so much to American (and world) culture had the guts torn out of their community? Why is what was once one of our most family-oriented groups now virtually without family, seventy percent of their babies born out of wedlock? That was unheard of when I was a young civil rights worker in the sixties. And the endless black on black crime? Where did that come from? What caused that? Forget Brown. Forget Wilson. They’re trivial by comparison. Those are the real questions. I submit that some of the answer is above — it’s part Al Sharpton (and his ilk) and part the New York Times. When I say the Times, I mean the liberal ideology for which they remain the standard bearer, even in their weakened state. They lead the way for the dependent welfare state that has pushed generation after generation of black people deeper and deeper into self hatred and shame, the inevitable psychological result of the welfare state, culminating on the streets of Ferguson and across the country today. I’m sure they would scoff, if they or their fans read what I just wrote. Simon’s just an apostate, to be ignored. But when it comes to civil rights, more than most of them, I have been there and done that. I was there in the sixties and I was, to my shame, a financial supporter of the Black Panthers. I’m not a young guy and I have seen a lot. And nothing I have seen, after all this time, is sadder than Ferguson. http://pjmedia.com/rogerlsimon/2014/11/25/nyt-ferg uson-hall-of-shame/?singlepage=true | ||

The AP went to great lengths to try and put a spin on this one and make it look like the grand jury conclusion was based on misinformation, but crashed and burned as the facts started stacking up. If a community can't distinguish objective facts, it is well and truly screwed. The only choice left to them is who's servant they will be. Which is a tragedy. | ||

Still checking my previous pic.'s source, I can post this one at this time:  source for this one: http://www.cbsnews.com/videos/ferguson-police-release-surveillance-video-related-to-michael-brown-shooting/ I understand the position that he is only responsible for his own death. I am not ignorant of the bigger picture. In my opinion; He was the trigger. And that is how I should have said it. | ||

My source for the image that I have removed was bad. I should have dug deeper. Here is info about that pic.: " KANSAS CITY, MO (KCTV) - A Kansas City Police Department officer vented on Facebook about the Michael Brown shooting, and now he faces an internal review. Officer Marc Catron's postings have produced outrage on social media, particularly because he made strong comments about Michael Brown. He shared a picture that he and others have claimed is Brown in a compromising position, but it's actually an accused killer from Oregon. A spokeswoman for the Kansas City Police Department said this is a personnel issue that will be addressed with the officer. The department also provided a copy of the department's eight-page social media policy. "Because members of this department are held to a higher standard than general members of the public, the online activities of members of this department shall reflect such professional expectations and standards," the department policy states. Two cousins were accused in Oregon of using a sledge hammer to kill their great-grandmother last year. In one of the photos, Joda Cain has a wad of money stuffed in his mouth while pointing a gun at the camera. People have posted this photo of Cain to Facebook, including KCTV5's Facebook page, claiming that it's Brown, when it's not. Catron posted the photo of Cain to his Facebook page and wrote, "I'm sure young Michael Brown is innocent and just misunderstood. I'm sure he is a pillar of the Ferguson community." Catron also spoke about the violence that has rocked Ferguson over the past week since a police officer shot the unarmed teen.

Thanks, ourdee. The crimes of Michael Brown are a sensitive issue so it is imperative for the Good Guys (such as you) to have their facts straight. There are Trolls and Hobglobbins lurking here and they will pounce with hysterics if a nasty looking picture is discredited. We have an obligation to be better than them. | ||

"Burn this B**** down" (screamed repeatedly by Michael Brown's stepfather to incite a riot) apparently is excusable discourse, as continually reported by the MSM. The Left is trying to make Michael Brown into a civil rights hero. They are making a mistake. A BIG mistake. The Left and the MSM must be made accountable for their desire to destroy The United States of America. | ||

The Left is trying to make Michael Brown into a civil rights hero. The left has ALREADY made Michael Brown into a civil rights hero. It's a done deal, dude. Consider this: The pResident and AG have known the truth for MONTHS about the facts of this shooting, yet have intentionally thrown human lives onto the bonfire of alleged civil rights inequality in this country. Heck, turns out we knew the truth within just days after the shooting. MB is already a hero, my brother. What's happening now is watering and fertilizing the seeds of discontent, so that at the appropriate time this racial rage - all of it built on deliberate, calculated, cold-blooded manipulation and outright lies - can be harvested. Community organizing, taken to the extreme. Transformation, coming soon to a country near you. | ||

Racial rage. Thats right, FB.. All that slavery, KKK, lynchings, segregation, inequality stuff, thats all just outright lies. Any oppressed population is going to have racial rage. It goes on for generations. Don't act like its some big surprise. | ||

Awesome, maybe we can actually have an intelligent adult-to-adult conversation about civil rights in America. You're from Canada? Feel qualified to comment? Doesn't matter, I welcome your comments regardless. Yep, there was racial inequality in America in the past. And...it's mostly a thing of the past. Blacks have EXACTLY the same rights and opportunities here in America as whites. Blacks are well represented in every aspect of American life. Heck, we elected a black President. If you're suggesting that racial inequality still exists in present-day America, or that black Americans are being deprived of their civil rights in present-day America, or that whites are racists, please provide examples. I'm typing fast because I'm still at w*rk, so pardon any typos or weak or poor sentence structure. Thanks. Ferris | ||

PS: And so's that you know, I'm a 60-something white man. And also so's you know: My absolute top pick for the next president of America, if I could chose ANY person in this country, would be Allen West. I've sung his praises many times on this site. He's a hero in my eyes, and represents everything good about America. If you're not sure who he is, please take a moment to do some research. Just so's you know where I'm coming from.  |
