Here I am scrolling through Facebook without being able to ignore the ignorant babbling about this Ferguson issue like it is the worst thing that has ever happened. You all need to stand back, breathe... and appreciate the fact that a jury of 12 anonymous individuals listened to this case, determined fact from fiction, and made their judgement. These individuals were selected as unbiased and as such their choice carries significant weight. I have no basis for assumption in this case, but neither does anybody else. None of you (you who complain about the outcome) were present, nor do you begin to understand any of the complications involved. There are strong reasons to back either side, obviously... Although Id venture that most of the negativity on social media stems from a lack of understanding with regards to the judicial system. I have my opinions just like anybody else, but its sad to see such uneducated status messages in such a high volume.
