The driver was the one charged with murder? That seems quite unexpected. Eagerly awaiting the details...

I'm guessing this indicates that they believe the cause of death was a "rough ride," wherein they drove erratically with the intention of slamming Gray around the back of the van.

I'm not going to celebrate until they start repealing some of the laws that allow officers to harass, detain, arrest, and imprison people for no particular reason.

But that will never happen so commence with the circus trials.

How would not charging these officers have helped get toward your goal?

How does charging them get me anywhere?

Explain to me the steps that you think will get society toward the systemic reform you claim to want.

1. Teach people how the system works in our compulsory education system.

Civics, taxation, and socioeconomics. Imagine what would happen when the proletariat learn that they pay the same marginal tax rate on their first dollar of income as Warren Buffet pays on his long-term capital gains.

I can't promise people will react they way I'd like, but ignorance will no longer grease the wheels of this Animal Farm.

OK. Now how is that incompatible with prosecuting people who kidnapped and murdered a man?

Are you arguing somehow that they were just following orders?

That's an insane analogy. Talk about the case at hand.
