Long haired hippy dude has all the answers. If I were on this board I would get up and walk out and never look back.

Police escort, metal detectors. What a safe place to live and do business. Some ought to pause and think about what's being projected for all the world to see.

That speaker wants all of Ferguson police officers let go :facepalm:

If I were an officer, I'd be very tempted to say, "My pleasure."

John Chasnoff to the #Ferguson City Council: "You're going to have to step aside gracefully if this community is going to heal."

Speaker just got a standing ovation, cheers and hugs. Said city council should have sought input from community on new measures #ferguson

That big thud you hear is the property values in Ferguson.

 

[Lovejac]

I'm still holding out hope for one speaker, just one speaker who makes sense.

 

[popsicle]

I hope they have LE coverage there.

If you'd like, you can add this quote to the record. You've done a great and helpful job keeping these things together for us! :thanks:

CUOMO: First, what that Michael Brown past as a juvenile? There's speculation that, oh, it's inaccurate to say that there's nothing there. It's only as an adult there's nothing there. Is there any truth to that, that he had altercations or any kind of record as a juvenile?

PARKS: Let me say -- I'll say this, Chris. He was a typical kid. He may have had some situations that may have occurred as a juvenile, but, you know, we need not to be at a point where we start to blame the victim for what he did.
I think this officer's background is the one in question, because his actions are the ones that took Michael Brown's life.

Okay, I have another question. I know, I know.... If MB did have some charges against him regarding authority issues which were plead down in juvenal court and LE was aware of these charges would the fact that the judge is keeping them sealed have an impact on the GJ's decision. In other words, can the prosecutor say that they do not have access to the records therefore they cannot present them to the jury to show that MB was predisposed to not listening to authority figures, such as LE officers? Can the prosecutor just ignore the records or is he obligated to present those records to the GJ for them to consider?

So the crowd asks them a question and they try to answer and are booed by everyone in the crowd.

How many members does the city council have? 8 maybe?

The man was upset the council wouldn't answer questions. The man from the council said they are there to listen. And he got booed.
