The parents of Michael Brown said Saturday in an interview with The Associated Press they were unmoved by the apology of the Ferguson, Missouri, police chief gave weeks after their unarmed 18-year-old son was killed by a police officer. Brown's mother, Lesley McSpadden, said, "yes," when asked if Chief Tom Jackson should be fired, and his father, Michael Brown Sr., said rather than an apology, they would rather see Officer Darren Wilson arrested for the death of their son on Aug. 9.
"An apology would be when Darren Wilson has handcuffs, processed and charged with murder," Brown Sr. said....

Accepting an apology might mean less money.

So they demanded an apology, but now that they got it, they’re unmoved.
The police chief didn’t understand. By “apology”, they meant a large cash settlement and Officer Wilson’s head on a silver plate.

Well sorry people that’s the breaks when you raise a kid to a a consciounceless gang banging criminal thug who thinks he can violently bully everyone (even cops) into giving him everything he wants.
Take it as a life lesson. You should have raised your son better.

No one, not the thug’s parents, nor the police, nor the looters, nor anyone else, is even going to consider apologizing to the storeowner that the thug terrorized, nor all the businesses that have been looted and destroyed. In fact, the looters are gearing up for another go.

We've seen the liquor store video.We've heard that he wasn't shot in the back.We've heard that he had mind altering drugs in his system.We've heard statements that he rushed the cop.We've heard reports of the cop having been injured.We've heard that a round was discharged inside the cop car.
Apology? It's the "Gentle Giant",and his family,who should be apologizing.No trial for the cop.Not a nickel for the dead giant's family,or their lawyers!

Well, as far as I am concerned, the owner's blood is on their own head. They have had ample opportunity to leave. Their lives should be worth more than their merchandise. From past experience they should that the police will not protect them and should they decide to protect themselves they will find themselves in the same predicament that Darren Wilson is in; To wit} being brought before a kangaroo grand jury, indicted on a trumped up charge and before a kangaroo court.
