Ferguson activists disrupted a stunned city council meeting in St. Louis on Tuesday evening to demand an end to the continued delays of justice in the volatile aftermath of Michael Brown’s death.
According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the council listened for two hours as protesters raged against police and city leaders’ inaction after Brown, an unarmed black teenager, was shot to death by Officer Darren Wilson on August 9. Wilson remains free on administrative leave even as the FBI launches a civil rights investigation into the shooting.
One speaker gave the council a powerful warning for the future of the community if police and courts fail to bring Wilson to justice: “If Darren Wilson gets off, you all better bring every army you all have got. ‘Cause it’s going down.”more
