It shouldn't have. Oh, and I have no desire to go to Missouri to survey every black individual to see WHY it did.

I think I agree and don't understand why or where folks are claiming that it is?

...the point is that nothing points to race being a factor?

I was hoping to understand the point of those that are saying that race was somehow a factor. I'd like to hear and better understand such a position.

In all honesty, no which is why I am asking. What does white or black have to do with the killing it self? I am genuinely asking.

What don't you get about race wasn't a factor until he was killed by a white man? Media made race a factor because WHITE killed BLACK.

What I don't get is how the race has any influence on the events.

What is the role or factor that race played that the media is reporting?

If the races were different would the events have unfolded any different? I know that's speculative but I'mmore interested in understanding how one race of the individuals has any particular influence on the events that occurred.

Sigh....I have no reason to "troll".

I'm trying to be open minded and understand those who are feeling cheated by this lack of indictment.

Understood? Sit them down and talk with them, and I'm sure you're be further from understanding them. Why are they rioting? B/c they thought the white cop shooting the black kid was all out of race. Why do they feel that? Because they don't give a shit about any facts brought up by the grand jury. A black kid could've shot the cop in the leg, and they'd still be up in arms if the cop turned around and killed the kid (in obvious self defense). What is there to "understand" in any of this?

This may be the only African-American in the U.S.A. who's happy with the Ferguson decision.

A grand jury, probably the most unbiased group you can get, found there to be no wrongdoing. 25% of that unbiased group was black. Still, nothing.
Remember too, a grand jury is biased towards indictment because the prosecutor selects the jury. Basically, there is ZERO evidence corroborating anything that puts MB in a decent light. Most of the "eye witnesses" they found were not even near the crime scene and had admitted they were just repeating stories heard from a select few. One of these alleged eye witnesses stated that Brown was killed by the cop execution style(ie. Wilson was standing behind him and shot him point blank in the back of the head) which of course is ridiculous based on the forensic evidence.
