Ferguson Will Bring Change

Never Forget Micheal Brown

We must remember the day when Justice failed and how change took course.

The facts and circumstances over the death of Micheal Brown do not hold true the feeling of disgust and distrust when the words fell upon me that his killer had been set free. 

The grand jury and the political edge of the prosecutor who sharpened the outcome, only solidifies the breakdown of justice in this case. 

There was no reasoning for Micheal Brown's death, there were no solid absolutes that resonated reason for the killing of Micheal Brown. There were no witnesses who could speak for this young man, who could provide justice, and factuality beyond questioning. 

There was no evidence of truth, or accountability from the policeman Darrin Wilson, only a glorified recounting that would give him freedom. No apology, no acceptance of fault, just his reasoning for pulling a trigger to cause death. 

Today we must put aside our anger, and recognize the chance for changing the way Americans are policed. We must devote our anger and disgust in a system of failure, towards making accountability and witnessing a matter of technology, where truth can never be denied.

I hope that Micheal Brown's death begins a new era of police accountability, where words are meaningless against the review of video footage and factuality that can not be denied.

We use this same technology to review football games, and events. 

We use technology to improve our lives, to recount the past, and to tell our stories for the future. We use technology for the betterment of everything in our world, so we must also embrace this era of change in how police are held accountable. 

I do not accept Micheal Brown's death and the injustice that followed as a dead end. 

I have hopes that in the near future, police vehicles will not be allowed to leave a police-station parking lot without accountability being fixed and mounted in that vehicle. We need video capturing devices to be implemented on the body of policemen for preserving our rights as civilians, and to force police to always act correctly and orderly.

If there was a video dash camera in Darrin Wilson's police vehicle, none of what we have witnessed for the last few months would have ever occurred.

In order for police to be held accountable, we can no longer rely on their own forms of accountability. 

Police must be made to wear video cameras on their person. Video capturing their actions would be the only way to keep the death of Micheal Brown from ever happening again. There is no accountability greater than technology, and we must voice our concerns, and tell our system of failure we demand accountability.

Robert McCulloch Failed Ferguson 

Prosecution starts with the desire to bring justice. 

If the protection of one person is of more importance than justice, prosecution will not prevail. Indictments will not be found against anyone, if the desire to keep someone unaccountable is the main factor, justice and equality will be lost.

Unless police brutality is captured by a onlooker with a video camera, or captured by a police dash camera, evidence to prosecute policemen fall short on the steps of justice. Actual accountability becomes nullified in the discourse of interdepartmental partnerships between the prosecutor's office and the police department for which they serve.

Without accountability, police have absolute power over those they are serving. If accountability was utilized by the use of worn video and audio capturing devices, civilians would have a third party behind them. A third party that can never be denied.

What happened in Ferguson should never be forgotten. America should be appalled and angered, but not everyone feels the same as I do, and I accept that. What I hope for is that his death will be remembered as a new law, that will bring change to how police are held accountable.

That is my hope.
