Ferguson aftermath

Ferguson Aftermath

Missouri National Guard reinforcements helped contain the latest protests in Ferguson, preventing a second night of the chaos that led to arson and looting after a grand jury decided not to indict the white police officer who killed an unarmed black 18-year-old., a case that has inflamed racial tensions in the U.S. Since the grand jury's decision, thousands from Los Angeles to New York have rallied behind the refrain "hands up, don't shoot," and drawing attention to other police killings. As the tension in Ferguson eased somewhat, officer Darren Wilson broke his long public silence, insisting on national television that he could not have done anything differently in the confrontation.

The thing is when it comes to police shootings, you would rather be safe then sorry if your the police officer. It is really to bad that the police officer did kill a unarmed black person.
