(1,905 posts)1. Something about this whole deal with the Grand Jury there sticks like a dead fish laying in the sun
for 3 days.
So, they have deployed National Guard troops a couple of days before the GJ's findings. Not enough Guard troops I might add. Then, rather than making the Grand Jury's findings announcement EARLY in the morning, they wait until evening. WTF? Then, all hell breaks loose.
It's like the conservanazis wanted this to turn out this way. I'm willing to be the conservanazis sent agitators to stir up the people. Then, this afternoon, the state makes an announcement that maybe they shouldn't have done what they did and is now sending more National Guard troops.
Go figure.
