Main stream Media are reporting that the Jury considering the Michael Brown case in Missouri have reached a decision. It is reported that the Grand jury will announce it’s decision at 9:pm tonight. In the meantime Authorities are bragging they will be prepared to deal with whatever emanates from the decision. They tell News Organizations they have over a thousand police in place to quell unrest and if that is not enough the state’s Democratic Governor Jay Nixon have already activated the state’s national guard.
Protesters are lining up for the verdict all across the country, whether Officer Darren Wilson is guilty or not we don’t know, however Wilson does not seem too worried about the outcome of the case we learned Wilson recently married. According to a report from the New York Times’ Julie Bosman and Campbell Robertson, Wilson managed to get married in October to a fellow officer in the Ferguson Police Department, Officer Barbara Spradling, 37, without anyone finding out.
We don’t want to prejudge what is going on in the mind of Darren Wilson, however it seem he is not particularly worried one way or the other about the outcome of this case.
Conventional wisdom dictates that he would have stayed low and away from the lime-light. Salon.com reports.
The couple obtained their marriage license in Clayton, Mo., outside St. Louis, in the recorder of deeds office on the fourth floor of the Lawrence K. Roos administrative building, steps away from the courthouse where the grand jury has been meeting.
While security guards question people going in and out of the building, the deeds office itself is a blandly bureaucratic place where clerks sit in open cubicles. A clerk at the marriage license desk said on Monday that she was surprised that Officer Wilson went there, as opposed to another county or state — possibly Las Vegas, she said — where he could have filled out paperwork with a greater guarantee of privacy.
Authorities seem tone deaf to what citizens in Ferguson are saying, some people are happy to tell the President he is not a King. The same people are woefully incapable of understanding that black people are Americans. They are going nowhere. The sooner they lose the sense of sole ownership the better everyone will be.
There will need to be a lot more of the hand holding than the guns and militarization . The sooner they realize that the better.
