If you look deeply into the palm of your hand, you will see your parents and all generations of your ancestors. All of them are alive in this moment. Each is present in your body. You are the continuation of each of these people.

Missouri AG Confirms Michael Brown Grand Jury Misled by St. Louis DA
by Frank Vyan WaltonFollow
Subsequent to a previous report from Lawrence O’Donnell the Missouri Attorney General has confirmed with Last Word that they instructions given the Michael Brown Grand Jury describing the Police “use of force” laws was incorrect and misleading.
Video from Program
The background of this situation is that Lawrence O’Donnell reported that after reviewing the transcripts of the Darren Wilson Grand Jury, his analyst discovered that Assistant District Attorney’s working for Bob McCullough gave the Jurors an outdated copy of Missouri Lawthat all that was required for an Officer to use deadly force is their “reasonable belief” that there was a threat.
In 1985 the Supreme Court amended this law to include a “probable cause” requirement underTennessee v Garner and the Jury wasn’t informed of this until 3 months later just before their deliberations, nor even at that time was the difference and relevance of this explained to them clearly.
The misleading information was given to the Grand Jury directly before Darren Wilson’s testimony giving the impression that all that was required under the law for Wilson to kill Michael Brown was his belief that he was in danger, without the additional requirement ofprobable cause for such a belief.
The Missouri AG now proclaims that was wrong and the Missouri Law needs to be changed and updated to reflect the Supreme Court’s ruling.

There is literally no cap on this level of fuckery. Don’t just fire McCulloch. Charge him with a crime. #staywoke

Can non indictment be thrown out?

This is one of my favorite messages ever.

pommentary asked: What do you think of the #crimingwhilewhite Twitter conversation?

Enlightening, important, a little annoying, and an important part of the broader conversation on white privilege.

bloodfl0w asked: Your posts are always reblogged to my dash & over the past few days I've read so many things I agree with... so, basically, I feel like a huge asshole for my condescending remark regarding your "tumblr staff thanksgiving photo" post. I sincerely apologize. I really wasn't aware that staff was taking down so many posts about what's currently happening - I don't use this site as much as I once did, but that's not an excuse. I was in the wrong, and I am genuinely sorry.

Apology accepted, new friend!

Hey ppl with snow

Please remember to let your faucets drip (6-8 drops per min)

Flush you toilets often

Run your showers often

Open up cabinets where your water pipes are to have heat touch them.

So your pipes don’t freeze and potentially bust and ruin your home, possessions and your paychecks.

Please reblog this to send out a message, subfreezing is a very real and very expensive problem. Thanks!

just a quick reminder for the upcoming winter!
