Having quietly got married this weekend, the 28-year-old Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson - who fatally shot unarmed black teen Michael Brown in August - will discover shortly after 5pmET today if he will stand trial for Brown's death after the grand jury verdict is released by the St.Louis prosecutors office. As Brown's lawyer previously noted "ninety-nine percent of the time the police officer is not held accountable for killing a young black boy," Crump said. "The police officer gets all the consideration." Dragging the decision out over the weekend has some fearing it has merely stoked tensions, and protests have already been arranged for later this evening. Police, as we previously noted, are prepared; and the White House has reiterated their call for calm. After-school activities in Ferguson have been cancelled (somewhat suggesting the outcome is not what Ferguson residents are hoping for).

A timeline of key events following the fatal police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson. (via FOX)
___
AUG. 9 — Brown and a companion, both black, are confronted by an officer as they walk back to Brown's home from a convenience store. Brown and the officer, who is white, are involved in a scuffle, followed by gunshots. Brown dies at the scene, and his body remains in the street for four hours in the summer heat. Neighbors later lash out at authorities, saying they mistreated the body.
AUG. 10 — After a candlelight vigil, people protesting Brown's death smash car windows and carry away armloads of looted goods from stores. In the first of several nights of violence, looters are seen making off with bags of food, toilet paper and alcohol. Some protesters stand atop police cars and taunt officers.
AUG. 11 — The FBI opens an investigation into Brown's death, and two men who said they saw the shooting tell reporters that Brown had his hands raised when the officer approached with his weapon and fired repeatedly. That night, police in riot gear fire tear gas and rubber bullets to try to disperse a crowd.
AUG. 12 — Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson cancels plans to release the name of the officer who shot Brown, citing death threats against the police department and City Hall.
AUG. 14 — The Missouri Highway Patrol takes control of security in Ferguson, relieving St. Louis County and local police of their law-enforcement authority following four days of violence. The shift in command comes after images from the protests show many officers equipped with military style gear, including armored vehicles, body armor and assault rifles. In scores of photographs that circulate online, officers are seen pointing their weapons at demonstrators.
AUG. 15 — Police identify the officer who shot Brown as Darren Wilson, 28. They also release a video purporting to show Brown robbing a convenience store of almost $50 worth of cigars shortly before he was killed, a move that further inflames protesters.
AUG. 16 — Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon declares a state of emergency and imposes a curfew in Ferguson.
AUG. 17 — Attorney General Eric Holder orders a federal medical examiner to perform another autopsy on Brown.
AUG. 18 — Nixon calls the National Guard to Ferguson to help restore order and lifts the curfew.
AUG. 19 — Nixon says he will not seek the removal of St. Louis County prosecutor Bob McCulloch from the investigation into Brown's death. Some black leaders questioned whether the prosecutor's deep family connections to police would affect his ability to be impartial. McCulloch's father was a police officer who was killed in the line of duty when McCulloch was a child, and he has many relatives who work in law enforcement.
AUG. 20 — Holder visits Ferguson to offer assurances about the investigation into Brown's death and to meet with investigators and Brown's family. In nearby Clayton, a grand jury begins hearing evidence to determine whether Wilson should be charged.
AUG. 21 — Nixon orders the National Guard to begin withdrawing from Ferguson.
SEPT. 25 — Holder announces his resignation but says he plans to remain in office until his successor is confirmed.
SEPT. 25 — Ferguson Chief Tom Jackson releases a videotaped apology to Brown's family and attempts to march in solidarity with protesters, a move that backfires when Ferguson officers scuffle with demonstrators and arrest one person moments after Jackson joins the group.
OCT. 10 — Protesters from across the country descend on the St. Louis region for "Ferguson October," four days of coordinated and spontaneous protests. A weekend march and rally in downtown St. Louis draws several thousand participants.
OCT. 13 — Amid a downpour, an interfaith group of clergy cross a police barricade on the final day of Ferguson October as part of an event dubbed "Moral Monday." The protests extend beyond Ferguson to sites such as the nearby headquarters of Fortune 500 company Emerson Electric and the Edward Jones Dome in downtown St. Louis, site of a Monday Night Football game between the St. Louis Rams and the San Francisco 49ers.
OCT. 21 — Nixon pledges to create an independent Ferguson Commission to examine race relations, failing schools and other broader social and economic issues in the aftermath of Brown's death.
NOV. 17 — The Democratic governor declares a state of emergency and activates the National Guard again ahead of a decision from a grand jury. He places the St. Louis County Police Department in charge of security in Ferguson, with orders to work as a unified command with St. Louis city police and the Missouri Highway Patrol.
NOV. 18 — Nixon names 16 people to the Ferguson Commission, selecting a diverse group that includes the owner of construction-supply company, two pastors, two attorneys, a university professor, a 20-year-old community activist and a police detective. Nine of its members are black. Seven are white.

These protesters are such hypocrites. There "pop"-culture(no pun intended, maybe) says what to do. Someone does it and then they get mad. I just don't understand.
Dr. Dre- The Chronic.
"Rat-tat-tat-tat tata-tat like that and uh
Never hesitate to put a nigga on his back"
Hey these people are willing to take to the streets, and in the streets is where the future lies. Looks like these folk are going to rule you long after Obama is gone.
Taking it to the streets for all the wrong reasons by my calculations.
This will render them to the margins and become a "reason" for more militarization.
They fell right in to the trap.
So the answer to tyranny (theoretical) is to comply?
No, but pretending these punks are revolting against tyranny doesn't help the cause of educating the population, it just feeds right into TPTB's narrative.
Rioting and looting will be looked down upon when done over what these sheep are doing it for.
Wow, my post is a bit tongue in check....they, the blacks allegedly are fighting against tyranny and again are acting, unlike the millions who rail against claimed treason and tyranny, yet do absolutely nothing but post drivel about banksters and joos. Those posters are the weakest, most cowardly slime in Amerika. It is little wonder they mouth the Third Reich/Muslim swill.
OK ZH, I gotta get some zzz. Gotta work in the danger zone tomorrow. Will keep reporting.
Re: Officer Wilson's response...
Response:
You had to reach deep for that one.
Few movies present violence like Unforgiven does.
Okay, now that the evidence is to be made public... where are the autopsy photos and sworn depositions?
I expect a full compliment of blood tests, including tests for steroids from Officer Trigger Happy will be made public as well.
Maybe not?
I won't be sad or angry if by some miracle, the Fergustan revolt goes national. They have balls and the whites are dutiful sheep accepting their governmental beatings.
If the American people, in so doing, kick out Israel Firster vermin like you - I concur.
I'm not Jewish or Zionist, but if the American people, in so doing, kick out a Muzzie Raghead Firster vermin like you - I concur.
We're fucking sick of hearing about your lazy freeloading Arabs and their stupid ass religion.
Suck my koster cack you low caste, no class swine.
The media. What is their current role in our society? They have covered this and Bill Cosby incessantly, but how many people, through the media, know about fast and furious, or wall street corruption, or DOJ corruption. We don't even know where Obama was born for fucks sake, yet we know every woman that Cosby has allegedly raped, and very little about all the women Clinton raped other than that they were all sleazy whores who were asking for it.What do we REALLY know about the OKC bombing in '95 or the 9/11 'terrorist attack'?
Who is the media - what is their agenda? It sure isn't 'news'.
Finally someone with a clear sense to get this conversation past race baiting .
We are being played here. The media are part of it , yes the protests are planned by our government . Everything set into play ... For what exactly ?
How much worse can it get ?
They can't stop reporting about Bill Cosby, but there was EXTREMELY limited coverage of Bill Clinton. Does the media think that Bill Cosby is capable and Bill Clinton isn't? Hmmm .... maybe the media is revealing its true colors.
Drink in hand, popping the popcorn... Huffington Post big RED capital letters "NO INDICTMENT" (shameful, but I expected nothing less from the red diaper doper babies on staff there)
Huffpo? Who the fuck actually browses there? Breitbart said that his greatest achievement was creating that cesspool. No greater mensch than A. Breitbart in this century.
Entertainment, Can't begin to tell you how many times I've been banned for posting some truth to their fiction. But where else can you see liberalism in it's full blown glory (i.e. racist censoring asswipes.)
But in other news...

This was expected as well. On with the Kabuki.

Asymmetric Solutions, a St. Louis-based security and intelligence company that is staffed by U.S. special-operations veterans, has been working with companies around the metropolitan area whose assets are valuable enough to justify the firm’s steep rates.
On rare occasions, science fiction writers get it right. William Gibson's works come to mind. But the age of private armies has just come forward and center stage.
Standard Disclaimer: And who says private industry doesn't create jobs. For veterans, no less!
I'm on a William Gibson binge RIGHT NOW. They need to make The Sprawl into movies!
Napoleon Williams III, an outreach director at the nonprofit Connections to Success, says that many of his colleagues are distressed at how the security obsession has interfered with discussions about deeper systemic issues. “There’s a lot of frustration that that’s the reaction from the white community—the branding of a victim position,” Williams said.
Well there are many facets of this thing. Sure they need security and private citizens & businesses need protection and defenses.
It is not like Welfare is the only solution for the Disgruntled in Ferguson either. Everyone wants a purpose in life... for some maybe sitting at home works for them... while others want careers, low cost education, low cost health care for current problems... beer & liquor for others. I don't live in Ferguson or know the place, but many of the past protesters seemed like good people and educated people. So we have to think there are some issues within the black, hispanic or asian families.
- Welfare seems very Robust in the USA, not sure there is a need for more
- Police & Government may need quotas and support to get minorities involved and employed
- Corruption issues, Auditing, Inspections, Independent reviews of government institutions could help
- Probably Ferguson has the same issues we see at National Level, people want respect, systems should have integrity, politics should really work to examine peoples issues, money should not provide huge advantages to certain people, corporations should not over power the people in terms of government attention and action
- Media & Press should reflect the people's values, feelings, thoughts, judgements, lives... should not be corporate owned or controlled by the wealthy or influential
Lots of Room for Change.
I figured you for one of the Fox news/Drudge kind of ignortanti who don't know a thing about economics or libertarians, just hate them Aye-rabs and want yer Jeeeezus to come back right quick, eh?
Git er done, eh?
If that was addressed to me, my entire life has been spent dealing with problems others have created and I do my best to solve them. Expediency in this case dictates action to prevent loss of life and property. Krugman would be proud of you with your desire for more broken windows.
Jonathan Equine needs to shut her muzzie cunt up about her fucking rag head Aye-rabs and their stupid ass religion.
Don't go away mad NAZI johnathon, just go away. ;')
Don't these people realize that the election is over? The entire point of this media circus was to boost African-American turnout for the midterm elections. There'll will be plenty of other police shootings that the media can promote in time for the 2016 vote.
There was an election? I thought it was a selection.
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED??
Cold weather is a bitch. Strategically timed decision no doubt. Shit like this happens all the time:
http://www.wltx.com/story/news/local/2014/09/24/video-released-released-...
This sort of brutality cannot be countered with civil disobedience. I find that the saddest fact in all of this is that 'Murica is too fat, lazy & medicated to do shit about it.
Ironic thing about it is most cops are the fattest, laziest, most medicated among the entire population.
The media will feed onthe riots.
Holder and Obama will use the riots to their advantage.
Who'd a thunk it? An iota of justice left in America.

Liberal white guilt?
Ha.
If by "guilt", you mean shame that I share a pigmentation of the skin with you folks, then yes.
How do you know he is white? Could be from the Sub-continent, Asian, Mestizo, Hispanic, Arab, Jewish, wevs.
Yeah, right. Like there are any minorities on this site.
More assumptions...how do know they are posting from the USA where your concept of ''minorities'' is valid? No one thinks like that in other nations.
Haha.
Good one.
I'd suggest shoe polish and a one way ticket to Liberia. That will take care of your "shame".
Soros clan, just ignore.
You deserve the fate of Emmett Till you piece of shit.
In fact, I'd be willing to bet your inbred family was in on Emmett Till's murder.
From the point of view of the DemPervs, they can be optimistic that the next grand jury in this or similar matters will understand what the right political decision means.
If you can break the law on live TV without consequences then the bankers got nothing to worry about
I had thought that the police were militarizing to prepare for battling preppers - but Ferguson makes me think that the militarizing may be targeted more toward these mass protests - which are inevitable just before the collapse, and will likely be extremely violent.
A hardened criminal felon gets capped for assaulting a police officer. No loss.
Yes its no loss but some chose to make this case set a precedent across the country . lighting 'fires' in their own backyard . .
It's just a smokescreen
That's SOP for the inbred ghetto types...
WTF happened to the people who gave us Loius Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, The Supremes, and Dionne Warwick? To say nothing of the doo-wop bands of the 1950s...

An excuse for the hoodlums to riot and burn down the town.
An excuse that was planned by TPTB to exploit the anger/rage/ & hopelessness of those very 'hoodlums' ... Who have nothing to lose.
Who are the real hoodlums ?
KFC is going up in flames. This is a full fledged chimp out.
When will the Democrat KKK cavalry roll into Ferguson? Or Cleveland? I need my soulmate to get back to Charleston, SC. Worries.
whites are pissed off because in their docile, compliant minds, there is NO fucking reason, under any circumstances where attacking government property and those who willingly pay for government property is warranted. Moooo!
Except they aren't attacking government property or the institutions that brought them to this point, are they? Otherwise they'd be burning down the Federal Reserve.
If they were attacking the Fed down there, or the banks in the area that would be one thing, but they are burning down and looting businesses in their own neighborhoods thus ensuring they remain in poverty when no businesses will open there.
Don't be lulled in by the false media narrative.
Oh, no way I'm playing to the media narrative. I'm simply pointing out that whether right or wrong, those blacks take it to the streets, whereas the whites, the taxpayers lament what they rightly figure is a marxist bloodless revolution and won't take it to the streets. Which is more pathetic?
i wish these people had the same passion for justice when it came to the(ir) guy in the WH.
The media is all atwitter hoping it gets really bad so martial law can be enacted. That is my only conclusion for the way they have focused on this BS like a laser beam for weeks now.

Good call on that one. I was seing a lot of McDonalds with the lights still on. Someone must have finally made the call to shut that branch down for a little while. I don't think they were selling many Happy Meals in amongst the infernos, tear gas, gun fire and such.
Black kid wears his uniform, which includes a baseball cap. White kid wears his uniform, which includes a gun. Words are exchanged. White kid shoots black kid, not once, but twelve times. White kid goes free.
You forgot the part where the black kid was on top of the white kid, bashing his head onto the concrete.
...and where the black kid went on a crime spree that day...and where the black kid was huge and weighed 300 lbs.
175 pound white man vs 300 pound black man. If attacked by a 300 pound anyone, boy howdy I'd pull my gun. Damn straight!
How does a 300-pound man attack a 4,000-pound police car?
Now youre just being silly
Brown door-slammed him. That's what we called it, back when. It's an old technique, bash the door when someone attempts to egress.
I didn't forget that part. I never heard that part, all this time, until you just now told me. Is that really what happened? Was Brown on top of Wilson, bashing Wilson's head into the pavement?
Resisting arrest, trying to grab Wilson's gun.
Did you not see the video of Brown shaking the small Pakistani shop owner by the neck when he tried to stop Brown from stealing a box of cigars and soda from his store?
The militarized police response later was overblown, and the militarization of police forces is a problem; but so is the entitled hooliganism of the youth.
I want to see the video of Brown trying to grab Wilson's gun. And was he trying to grab Wilson's gun or was he busy slamming Wilson into the pavement? Was Wilson in his car, and if he was, then how could Brown be slamming his head into the pavement?
You can read all the evidence for yourself once it's released and relieve yourself of your MSM induced fantasy.
Okay.
I would have emptied my clip into him and reloaded just to be safe, its a job, I expect to be able to go home at night like everybody else not end up in the grave or critical care because some huge Black guy feels entitled to beat or kill me,
Actually he was a normal size Pakistani shop owner, but next to the Mike Brown thug, at 6'4" and 300# , he looked small.
This is quite simple. One should always do their own research before rendering an opinion, based on the available facts. If the facts change, then one should recognize their original opinion was incorrect, and then suck it up by admitting one was wrong.
Standard Disclaimer: Personal bias not withstanding.
Apparently quite a number of people have done their own research, based on the evidence available to them, and have been making their opinions known for quite a while now.
If more facts become available, I will be very glad to read them. I promise to read them. If you find something helpful and post it, that would be appreciated.
For the moment, from what I have been able to find, it appears to me that the policeman could have handled the situation without killing anyone. To me, "To PROTECT and serve" means prioritizing learning how to handle people without killing them. I, and I bet many others here, have personally handled big strong young men without killing them. Discipline, training, and attitude.
On the citizen side, I have had as many interactions with the police as probably an average person. Some were wonderful, almost all were professional, but a couple seemed to me to be bullies. Power will always attract bullies. Bullies with speed traps. Bullies confiscating personal property for no reason. Bullies busting down the doors of the wrong house and then shooting people inside. Bullies invading foreign countries on made-up pretexts.
Also, it seems that the makeup of the Grand Jury is a problem. I can imagine how the Afro American community of Ferguson can consider justice to have been denied when only 3 of its members were included on the the 12-member Grand Jury, when 9 would be required to indict. Yet, was that their own fault? Aren't jury rolls made from voter lists? Don't the Afro Americans of Ferguson vote? After Martin Luther King's voting marches? If they don't vote, then any failure of the Grand Jury to protect them is their own fault. Yet their are posters on ZH who say "don't vote".
And what about the parents? If the kid was a bully, how did he grow up to become that way? Do not they who birth him have a duty to train him? And once he is grown up, and big and strong, if he was a bully, it might not have been physically possible for the parents to physically control him anymore, but they could always kick him out of the house. Let him work off his excess energy at a tough job trying to make money to pay his own rent somewhere.
Ultimately, I blame the government. First, it pays people to have babies, and then it brings in millions of cheap foreign laborers, to take the entry-level jobs.
If the Afro American community of Ferguson wants better, perhaps they should stop having more babies and start voting. If they have churches, then perhaps their preachers could preach that.
Thats a nice simpleton MSM explanation of the situation.
I've never posted a video on here, but it feel like this short George Carlin clip is appropriate.
For the 5% of you with a soul, enjoy.
For the other 95%, feel free to keep being a slave to it.

They never figure it out. They destroy their own neighbourhood, looting Korean stores, and then when everything is burnt they wonder why they live in a shithole.
This stupidity happened in 1968.
Trash a bank if you've got real balls, or better yet go into the suburbs you want to exact revenge against.
Except the suburbs have hired their own private army.
I'm going to repost the link.

From the link - "Securitas, a security firm..."
Your point is well taken however we, the senior community I live in, have Securitas ~$1mm contract per year. These folks provide security theatre at best for our ~10,000 population. In a real emergency we all know that they would be useless.
yeah right big trouble in Clayton. Try being a black kid and driving south of Delmar Blvd from the northern parts of St Louis County and go anywhere in Clayton including the Galleria or the Promenande under normal circumstances let alone before this started.
This is a bad thing?
Put the Atlantic Ocean and the Sahara Desert between Ferguson and Clayton, and ye shall have things as they should be.
Hey man, they'll get a brand new and improved neighborhood courtesy of the US tax slaves.
you guilty fuckers youll get what you want. just wait a little...
What do you want from life?
To try and be happy
while you do the nasty things you must
Well, you can't have that, but if you're an American citizen you are entitled to:
a heated kidney shaped pool,
a microwave oven--don't watch the food cook,
a Dyna-Gym--I'll personally demonstrate it in the privacy of your own home,
a king-size Titanic unsinkable Molly Brown waterbed with polybendum,
a foolproof plan and an airtight alibi,
real simulated Indian jewelry,
a Gucci shoetree,
a year's supply of antibiotics,
a personally autographed picture of Randy Mantooth
and Bob Dylan's new unlisted phone number,
a beautifully restored 3rd Reich swizzle stick,
Rosemary's baby,
a dream date in kneepads with Paul Williams,
a new Matador, a new mastodon,
a Maverick, a Mustang, a Montego,
a Merc Montclair, a Mark IV, a meteor,
a Mercedes, an MG, or a Malibu,
a Mort Moriarty, a Maserati, a Mac truck,
a Mazda, a new Monza, or a moped,
a Winnebago--Hell, a herd of Winnebago's we're giving 'em away,
or how about a McCulloch chainsaw,
a Las Vegas wedding,
a Mexican divorce,
a solid gold Kama Sutra coffee pot,
or a baby's arm holding an apple?
McCulloch chainsaws suck ass, get a Stihl instead.
I would, however, like the Kama Sutra coffee pot.
I'll use the Montclair to practice Kama sutra in the back seat it won't steam up cause the rear window opens what a great car.
+1 for Stihl chainsaws but not so much for the current homeowner or farmer series. You have to go with the pro stuff. Husqvarna makes some nice saws too.
+1 just for the effort, assuming of course that those thoughts are yours and not stolen...
+1975 for including a shock-theatre troop of SFO rockers who did it to just piss off the 70's hippies, and making it relevant 40 years later.
Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables was supposed to be CAMP, a JOKE, SATIRE. Not a manual.
If you listen to that LP today, you can point to several news stories that fill the lyrics of each song.
The media has been race-baiting the niggers since the the Brown was shot.
If the races were reversed in the same situation, we would have never heard of any shooting unless one were to read the police blotter in the local paper.
Wouldn't've heard shit if it was a black on black kill either......The media is 100% .gov owned....
Must keep our eyes on the ball. Divide and conquer only works to the benefit of the tyrant....
The Media is owned by the same Holding Companies that own the govenrment.
The rioting and looting are a problem, but a far larger problem is the damage to the international reputation, built up in WW2, of the USA as protectors of defenseless people. There may not be much of that reputation left these days, but every time a cop shoots a black kid, and especially every time a white cop shoots a black kid, that whittles away the precious that still remains. It's like a bank account. You can't keep taking out and never put anything in. Such shootings take out. What are TPTB putting in?
"black kid..." how'd you like to have faced that 300 pound 6' 2" kid?
The "gentle giant" was also a hardened violent felon...the robbery footage wasn't the act of some kid down on his luck and desperate for a score of drugs but someone who knew what he was doing and how to execute it.
"You can't keep taking out and never put anything in"
You can as long as you own the media, the printing press and enough dumb humans to believe in the ponzi.
Ask Blankfein, Dimon, Thain, Fuld,.....etc about taking out and not putting in.
With all of this looting there won't be any deals left for Black Friday. I have not seen any work boots being looted yet.
No justice, then let there be war. Whose justice is up to the individual to decide.
Fuck Holder, Fuck the Cops, and Fuck those Fucking Looting Burning Animals.

Too bad those FerguStanians won't take it to the next logical step and visit Your neighborhood.
No need, just bought dog food.
Doubt they would have the balls,as they would get a lethal dose of lead poisoning.
