What I'm watching on CNN is heartbreaking.
The lack of indictment is a joke. Fine.
But then the police went to tear gas. And that empowers the worst elements of the crowd. And those worst elements have certainly had their moment. The looting and the vandalism are just infuriating. There is a very clear and strong message: We can no longer have two different justice systems for blacks and whites.
And yet the actions of looters and vandals have trampled any hope of that.
Why did they wait until night to announce this? Whose fucking idea was that?
Who let lose the tear gas?
Where were the community figures who wanted peaceful protests?
Our system is broken.
