Overturning that police car. Igniting protests nationwide. Those who think that what happened in ferguson is an engs kus for violence, i do not have any sympathy for them. New york, chicago, atlanta, l. A. , streams of protesters standing in solidarity with Michael Brown and his family. Were still hurting. I feel like we just killed him again. I think theyre grieving parents mourning the loss of their son. But the officer who shot the unarmed teenager sticks to his story and says skin color does not matter. When you look through your heart and your mind that if Michael Brown were white this would have gown down in exactly the same way . Yes. The fury still simmering in the streets. Looks like the National Guard is taking somebody . As missouris governor faces accusation he is held back the National Guard. That is false and absurd and politics and has nothing to do with what any of the folks up here are doing. Lets talk, live in the cnn news room. Good morning, im carol costello, thank
Thank you, rev. Don, to answer your question again, Lesley Mcspaddens initial reaction caught on videotape after the devastating news that the killer of her child was not going to be brought to justice was overwhelming to her. She and the Ferguson Community understands that we all have a responsibility to protect the community. Michael brown sr. Is here speaking on behalf of his family and you saw his p. S. A. Where he continued to ask for calm. Thats one of the reasons why he is not speaking today. You want to use the raw emotion of a family that has been devastated once by seeing their child dead on the ground and then getting the devastating news of a prosecutor who was supposed to go and represent people like Michael Brown but accused Michael Brown. So thats the raw emotion of it. And we tried to move on, focused on the cause of saying, nobody is going to condone violence. And were going to reject it. As reverend al said, people who do that stuff, its not appropriate. Michael said
