++Ezra Klein at VOX , Josh Marshall at Talking Points Memo and John Cassidy at the New Yorker have their takes on Darren Wilson's testimony to the Grand Jury on facing down the "demon" who had the strength of the Hulk.
++Darren Wilson allegedly received $500,000 for his ABC interview and another $500,000 from another network. Throw in the prosecutor raising $432,000 for him. He shouldn't have to work as a cop anymore. Is a million bucks the fee for shooting an unarmed black man?
++The web has scores of analyses how the prosecutor blew being a prosecutor and made sure there was no indictment.
++Governor Nixon gets my Paul Bremmer Award for the clumsiness of his response or lack of response to the uproar in Ferguson.
++One of President Obama's legacies is--I think a good one--showing us how racist we still are. It should be remembered that President Obama won the Nobel Prize for Peace because of his continuation of Dr. King's struggle. He was a black man who won election in a racist society. That's what the Award was for.
++I have no further comments but I have been following the national protests closely.
