136. you are not fooling anyone

Mon Nov 17, 2014, 06:23 PM

Nov 2014

with your fearful response on thinking what the response(s) will be to a likely travesty of justice. This is not a country for ALL people. If/when executioner wilson walks our system of justice, when it comes to minorities, will have done what was expected of it. Won't be shocked, surprised. Just sick and goddamn tired of the BS passing for justice and wilson apologists. You can feel justice was served and I will say, well..............

Horseshit. Couching your apology for Wilson in rhetorical concessions GoneFishin Nov 2014 #36

Evidence doesn't seem to support that he was shot in the back phil89 Nov 2014 #56

Why would it defy the DoJ? GGJohn Nov 2014 #4

true. i doubt the doj included such a request in their talks hopemountain Nov 2014 #6

I can see the DoJ making that request, GGJohn Nov 2014 #7

Whites make up 29% of the population there, but get 75% of the grand jury. Ash_F Nov 2014 #76

Or there's just not the evidence that you proclaim there to be. GGJohn Nov 2014 #78

If the county government was not worried, they would seat a proper jury. /nt Ash_F Nov 2014 #84

Who says they haven't? GGJohn Nov 2014 #93

The courts are a county government function. Calista241 Nov 2014 #86

Still an unrepresentative jury. /nt Ash_F Nov 2014 #90

Absolutely not true. Feral Child Nov 2014 #81

Like noticing an officer is not writing enough tickets to the poor Black community? Ash_F Nov 2014 #85

Think he will be wearing a bullet proof vest a lot? L0oniX Nov 2014 #47
