    Why not just teach your kids not to steal, beat people up, assault cops ect ect ect? I guess it is easier to blame others... All i know is.... Play stupid games.. win stupid prizes.

    This was all about race, next stop Ohio on that front.

    This should have never been what it was. It's not just a black kid that did this. All races and nationalities fit the description, but America has a huge racial divide between Caucasians and African Americans that will probably never subside. It's sad, but it's reality.

    I believe the right outcome was reached, how things move forward next is anyone's guess. I don't know how the animosity and indifference will be handled or resolved in years to come. I just know that it is not likely to be resolved in my lifetime.

    Believe me the cops had better change their ways, the problems arise because the black population fails to realize that none of us trust the police, the cops shootings of family dogs, no knock warrants ending in innocent deaths, and untold deaths of the mentally ill have got to stop!

    This case, like the Travon Martin case, are examples of young black thugs being killed simply because of their life style choices, not because of racism in America.

    CNN and Mark Geriguse (sp) are inciting the rioters, stating that this lack of an indictment was a forgone conclusion and the whole grand jury was a cruel joke!

    Its small time as far as riots go, yet you can bet the news will root them on and film it all for us to see.

    Racism will never end as long as there are those that make money off of it.
    It's 35 degrees right now here in St.Louis, a fire hose solves this.
