    This actually saves the taxpayers a great deal of money in the long run.
    Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

      Michael Brown also had an extensive criminal history. It wasn't like Wilson randomly executed Brown because he was sitting on his porch playing with a yo-yo.

        I disagree. I think it emboldens others in similar situations to lawyer up and sue. It will cost more now that the flood gates have been kicked even further in.

          In what universe was this a wrongful death?

              1: Average cost to incarcerate a prisoner per year: $47,000 x 20 years: $940,000
              2: Average cost to raise 12 illegitimate welfare children to 18 years of age: $2,490,000.00

              Looks like we saved about 50%.

                  The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                      A reward for evil. Sad day.
                      Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

                        The small capacity I have for empathy evaporated when I saw video of him pushing around a small shopkeeper.
                        I'm not saying that is right.

                        The shopkeeper should now sue the family for emotional distress.

                          The city should have fought it instead of trying to save money by settling. Now every parent with a thug for a child is going to have dollar signs in their eyes. And even though a settlement is not an admission of guilt, every low-info moron who hears this story is going to take it as proof that Officer Darren "The Hero" Wilson is guilty of murder.

                          Frankly, this pisses me off.
