11 days of
riots, a flood of agents from the FBI and now the most politicized AG on scene
The facts
from distortions and rush to judgment once again so hard to wean
News today
is that Darren Wilson was by Michael Brown beaten up
Eye socket
broken and one eye probably swollen shut
If the
latest account is true that Brown at 292 pounds turned and then charged
No wonder
six shots at him by the officer were discharged
It is a tragedy
that Brown was killed but the facts seem to leaning that his is not the
martyred saint
No matter
how much the demonstrators with looting and rioting want to him so paint
It is only
natural when black police in Ferguson are only five percent of the force
In a town
two thirds black the tendency will be a rush to judgment from the facts to be
divorced
So Holder in
his own rush to judgment has sent in 40 plus FBI agents to witnesses interview
Stirring the
pot of the quick to play racial stew
Three
autopsies to try to determine whether to prosecute this physically assaulted
cop
Already the
Sharptons of the world bemoaning that the bullets did not stop
If ever we
needed some voices of reason to urge calm now is the time
11 nights of
looting, Molotov cocktails, rocks, bottles without reason or rhyme
Enough time
to let the process of assembling the facts to determine whether the cop was in
fear of his life
Enough of
this ongoing racial strife
One thing is
certain the city was penny wise and pound foolish not have cameras in police
car
The shooting
on film would most likely have meant the outrage would not have come this far
A tragedy
anytime a young life is cut down short
Magnified
when the initial rush to judgment the facts distort
Maybe Holder
in his rush to judgment might learn some investigative skills
Apply them
to the non investigation of the IRS with Lerner trying to conservative voices
still
