If the reports are true that Michael Brown\’s blood was in Officer Darren Wilson\’s police car – and they come from the New York Times and other credible sources – it coincides with Wilson\’s claim that the scuffle between them was partially in that car.
A demand for justice would take that into account.
But the endlessly-changed demand that there be “Justice For Michael Brown” evidently would not.
Article after article, news report after news report, continue to quote agitator after agitator telling us that if Wilson is not charged there will be, in the words of one, “hell to pay”. In the words of the execrable Missouri State Senator jamilah nasheed – which she has never backtracked from – “If you should decide not to indict this police officer, the rioting we witnessed this past week will seem like a picnic compared to the havoc that will likely occur.” And so on and so on and so on.
It seems clear that “Justice For Michael Brown”, in reality, has nothing to do with justice at all. It means “If you don\’t fry that cop we\’re going to take this place apart again, and then some”.
People who want true justice wait until they know what they\’re talking about before demanding it for one side over the other.
This is not justice, it is lawless anarchy.
Time to call things as they are.
