A grand jury has reached a decision on whether to indict Darren Wilson, the white Ferguson, Mo. police officer whose fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager sparked days of turbulent protests, sources close to the process said.

Sources said that press conferences are being prepared by the county prosecutors’ office and the Missouri governor. Those press conferences will likely come later today.

And I didn’t intend for my comment to sound racist, but I can’t see anything but an all (or nearly all) black jury that is hell-bent on an anti-police agenda would indict.

Not heavy enough to stop a slug, though. My shotgun can carry 20 12ga slugs.

The Governor just took a question from an obnoxious communist retard and handled him quite effectively.

Maybe you are right, but I don’t trust juries.

Spoken like someone that does not have friends and family in the area. I hope there is enough blood and brains on TV to keep you entertained.

Earlier this afternoon I had an appointment up in Creve Coeur in St. Louis County, and on the way back home to south St. Louis County, I passed near Clayton. I had some paperwork to fill out and then drop off at an office in downtown Clayton, so I stopped at the county library in Clayton to fill out those forms. The library was closed. So I sat in the car in the parking lot and did the paperwork. Then I walked over to the office building, the Clayton Towers, a couple blocks away. The office building was closed. I called the office—got a recording. I waited till someone walked out the door of the building and then walked in. Office is on the third floor. Door is locked. I knock on the door. Fortunately, someone comes to the door, and I drop off the paperwork. So the trip to Clayton was not wasted.

Normally, downtown Clayton is a hustling, bustling place, full of activity. Today it was like a ghost town. On my walk, though, I did see lots of TV satellite trucks. All the networks are here. I saw orange barricades over by the county government building. Everyone is bracing for the reaction to the grand jury announcement, coming up shortly. It’s nice and cold and windy in St. Louis today, so I hope any rioters, vandals, and looters have an unpleasant time.

Not a bad idea. School has been cancelled for tomorrow anyway. Let’s see how well the rioters perform with hangovers. (You just know, in that weather, there is some imbibing doing on.)

Why do they all have that queer hysterical tone to their voice?

By the way the only way to watch this is on MSNBC, it’s like getting a free freak show.

Got both bases covered here - Saiga 12 and long-barrel FAL. Only thing is 7.62x51 can be hard on the scenery and neighbors in a city.

Wonder if the same grand jury can indict an individual for inciting riots or hold individuals responsible for damage to others property? Hit em with both barrels!

Don’t forget that the NYT published Wilson’s address, along with his bride and kids.

And Holder’s people will invite themselves over for a cookout - it’s cold outside, doncha know...
