" In fact, the entire “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” protest was based on a lie. Michael Brown did not have his hands up when he was shot in Ferguson, Mo."

Perhaps, but the final kill shot was straight down through the top of Brown's head, a fact the cop lied about in his testimony to the grand jury. Normally, when a potential suspect lies to the grand jury, there will be charges brought so that the truth can be sorted out in a trial. But the grand jury process in Ferguson was obviously a sham run by the DA, designed to get the cop off the hook. And that is the problem. The PROCESS of justice was denied, so people, especially minorities, can't trust the cops or the entire legal justice system. And that is a condition they were very used to in Ferguson, as evidenced by MANY examples of police targeting blacks there with no repercussions and no justice.
