On Thursday a grand jury decided there was no criminal conduct by [Sgt Greg Capers, who shot the kid] in the case.
What the fuck is wrong with that grand jury? I mean, presumably the prosecutor didn’t want to get an indictment and should also rot in hell, but the jury? Probably a bunch of cowards or assholes.
Though when I was on a grand jury, the assholes voted to indict on every charge. Sending kids to jail for selling pot? No problem!
There was a little old white lady who sat behind me. I asked her to imagine being asked to indict a black man for sitting at an all-whites counter in the 50s. Would she indict? She said she didn’t know.
Sadly, grand jury (at least where I was) was a simple majority, so I couldn’t hang the jury.
Sorry for the double post, but
