To avoid an even bigger riot that would happen if he is not indicted or found guilty.

if by "railroaded" you mean "fired for killing an unarmed man who was raising his hands in surrender and who was no longer an immediate threat to anybody" than yes. He will be "railroaded".

This man will end up serving time in federal prison.

it will be a travesty, and all done to appease "the community" of sub human filth looters.

This board seems to think that everything is going to incite a riot.

My first thought was that he would be railroaded. I knew the evidence was going to come out and show that MB was facing him at the time and possibly charging him..... Although I'm starting to really think about it and it sorta pisses me off that an unarmed man was shot 6 times with many being in the head/neck area. May have been a little over kill.... I hope justice is served and the right call is made, whatever that may be

I wouldn't worry about it. A lot of democrats are going to want this "grassroots" response to the shooting to continue for as long as possible. I don't think they want this to stop yet.

I left grassroots in quotes because it looks more like AstroTurf to me. The overwhelming majority of the violent offenders arrested in Ferguson last night were not from Missouri. They are agitators from out of town.

I actually think that Obama and Holder are feeling the opposite pressure that a White President and Attorney General would feel. Remember, Bush 41's administration prosecuted and convicted the Rodney King cops for civil rights violations, while Holder didn't bring civil rights charges against George Zimmerman, despite the demands of "his people". Obama and Holder are keen to avoid the impression that they're trying to "stick it to a White cop", while a White administration would try to avoid the impression that they're insensitive to the suffering of Black folks.

We are going to see the Rodney King model here.

If Wilson isn't indicted by the grand jury, the Feds will go after him on civil rights charges.

He's gonna have to clear both hurdles.

He shot an unarmed man six times, including once in the BACK of the head.
