An announcement that might announce charges or that might not announce charges that might cause rioting or might not cause rioting?
Are you enjoying this?
I am. Always funny to watch BDK show off his stupidity. They were going to offer him a role in Dumb and Dumber to, but he's not funny. Just dumb.

Why even use a grand jury? Shouldn't you be able to trust the DA to make the correct decision on whether or not to charge someone?

There never was any doubt about what the decision will be. This way it takes the heat off of the DA.
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by c squared. Then you energy.

But the DA presents the case to the grand jury. The evidence, circumcised or otherwise, will be heavily criticized by the justice seekers from the losing side. And the town(s) will burn.

I believe that's referred to as the "covered wagon strategy".

You now have a state of emergency declared a head of time.

Does that change your opinion?

because there is no evidence it was a bad shoot. in fact, there is quite a bit if evidence that refutes the Rhodes Scholar they have for a witness

if not for the racially charged atmosphere caused by inner city blacks who dont care enough to vote, this case never would have even gone to a grand jury. Grand juries are just an elected prosecutor's way of washing his hands

So there is justice
No Justice, No Peace! #Ferguson Protest Leader Has Car Stolen During “F*ck the Police” Rally

Gateway Pundit ^ | November 18, 2014 |

No Justice, No Peace! Elizabeth Vega is one of the Ferguson protest leaders. She protested at sports venues and attempted a banner drop. She co-led the St Louis Symphony interruption, was arrested at the pumpkin smashing, yelled at the St Louis Post Dispatch protest, and helped block traffic with her freak show in Clayton yesterday. While yelling “F*ck the Police!” apparently her car got stolen.

I assume you didn't go to high school in the Bodymore, Murderland sections of Baltimore, made famous in HBO's The Wire.

All the cities in the DC-Boston corridor are, like cities everywhere. I hear the Washington people speak of Spokompton, etc. so I assume western cities suck too. Get 10 miles away from I-95/NJTP in either direction and it's not a shithole at all.
