Counting down to the Ferguson Grand Jury Decision at 9 p.m. - and now we have it. At 9:24 the Prosecutor said the Grand Jury chose not to indict Officer Darren Wilson in the shooting death of Michael Brown. Unfortunately, this guy is a total idiot, and his "speech" is a joke, so this is not going to end well. I will have Part Two with video up later.
Blame the Victim, Blame the Witnesses, Blame Social Media
9:25-9:30
Over bullhorn at Ferguson PD: "That's bullshit." Now screaming. Lots of screaming. Glass shatters. Cars honking. Police hanging back.

McCulloch: All 12 jurors present for every session, heard every piece of evidence. Were extremely engaged in process #Ferguson
— KSDK NewsChannel 5 (@ksdknews) November 25, 2014His convoluted nonsense sounds like a long series of drunk tweets read out loud, not a grand jury decision announcement.

Anything short of an indictment of Darren Wilson will be a grave injustice.
