Missouri Police Union Announced “Darren Wilson Day” on Anniversary of Mike Brown Shooting

One year later, as unrest and protest returned to Ferguson Missouri marking the first year anniversary of the shooting of Mike Brown, the police union in Missouri is apparently having its own celebration. The union has taken to Facebook and proclaimed Brown’s death as Darren Wilson Day. You remember Darren Wilson right? He is the police officer who served and protected Mike Brown by pumping multiple bullets into Brown’s body as Brown ran away.

The post on the page of the Columbia Police Officers’ Association incited outrage in the college town, including among city officials. Protestors gathered Monday outside the police department, according to the newspaper.

The post said the shooting had nothing to do with race and referred to Wilson, who was a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, as an “innocent, but persecuted, officer,” according to the Post-Dispatch. It also said Wilson was innocent because of “the fact that he was thoroughly investigated… and found he did NOTHING wrong,” according to the report.

The post was shared almost 60 times, according to an ABC affiliate.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
