Darren Wilson Ain't No Ham Sandwich: Prosecutorial Manipulation of a Flawed Grand Jury System | Kris Hermes

Good article on prosecutors' use of grand juries to avoid indicting cops (which was written before the non-indictments in the Michael Brown and Eric Garner cases).

If your ministry involves ‘restoring’ an unjust illusion of ‘peace,’ then your ministry is a lie

Yet the Billy Graham team seems to think that peace is something that can be “restored” in Ferguson. They seem to think that “peace” is somehow an accurate description of Ferguson, Missouri, before the protests began. They seem to be so thick-headed and thick-hearted that they think the people’s response to the violence and injustice done against them is somehow the reason Ferguson lacks “peace.”

I'd be happy with three acres and a cow.

Eric Garner’s murder is not only about the justice system. It’s about how capitalism creates racialized categories of “surplus” people.

How Can We Stop Cops from Beating and Killing? by Molly Crabapple

"In order to end police violence, we have to start considering abolition [of the police]," she said. "At the very least, we are going to need to work on getting the cops 'out of our heads and our hearts.'
