IRONIC … UNDER THE SEASONS GREETINGS SIGN
I don’t profess to be any legal scholar. I don’t know all the details of this case. I will leave that to the professionals and those in the legal system who should be working on this. However, I have been following this case closely through the posts presented in the blogospshere.
I feel for the family, for the town, for the state and for the nation.
THERE HAS BEEN NO CHANGE SINCE THE CIVIL RIGHTS DEMONSTRATIONS
The problem seems to be “walking while black”.
Call for calm … but don’t expect it. This is a wound that hasn’t been healed in a long time and keeps getting “salt” spread unto it.

On August 9th, Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson shot a black teenager named Mike Brown. Since then, the city has been protesting. The police did not react well.

It is headline news here. I have been watching it closely. It is not a good look when this happens again and again and nothing is learnt about it. But we also have to think about Darren Wilson too. His life is over now, he will have to live with the consequences – not just for himself but for the whole community. Even if he was charged he would never survive prison either. So there are no winners, only losers. 😦

I am not saying that I think this officer was justified in shooting an unarmed man 12 times. I find huge holes in the decision, but he is not getting off scot free.

By law, he is ….. as you say, his life as he knows it is over. Mike isn’t ciming back. No winners indeed. Neither is America! 😦
