I agree with you but I don't think the grand jury was arrogant; the deliberation went on for two days and I think everyone is scared as hell. That said, the police are out of control here, there are so many goddamn guns on the street - there was an unarmed black shot just three days ago in NYC in a stairwell! You know who's arrogant? All of us who look at these symbols and say - they're out there, they're not us. But at least in the U.S. it's all us, we're all arrogant, and racism is so embedded in this society that it's a wonder war hasn't broken out here yet. And it will I think.

Ferguson is going to burn down, that's for sure. And the grand joury
should be conscient and take their responsability about what is going
to happen. That's the kind of arrogant behaviour who make people
angry, frustrated and violent.

See images below:

A Missouri grand jury has decided not to indict Ferguson police Officer
Darren Wilson [www.cnn.com] in the August 9 shooting death of Michael Brown,
prosecutor Robert McCulloch said Monday.

The incident became a flashpoint for racial tension in the St. Louis suburb;
Brown was black and Wilson is white. Brown's father and others had called
for calm ahead of the grand jury's decision, which comes amid concerns over
the possibility of violent protests.
