A GoFundMe campaign raised $234,910 and counting in support of Ferguson PD Officer Darren Wilson, the killer of Michael Brown who is currently not charged with a crime and is on leave with pay, as far as I know. The donations are even fucking tax-deductible.
Meanwhile, the preliminary grand jury case against Wilson is called “Michael Brown Case” throughout media, casually criminalizing the dead boy’s name while leaving Wilson’s name in the smaller print. He could probably walk the streets unrecognized, at least outside of the immediate St.Louis area. But he has a support fund now. Like George Zimmerman, cashing in for killing an unarmed kid.
I think I’ll go set something on fire now. Metaphorically, probably.
Thoughts?
