Actor Jesse Williams Joins Ferguson October: This Is a Basic Desire Not to Be Killed With Impunity 

Beautiful soul; am not one to be impressed by celebrity, but am well pleased to have taken time to listen to Jesse Williams. He appears to be sincerely caring and well informed; and not just another 'pretty face' working the 'screen facades' pumped out of network tv. Has substance, like most hardworking actors, sadly, who're compelled to to work myriad jobs outside career choice before finding success in the theater and/or film. "You're only as good as you last show," in show biz. So am delighted Jesse used his tv celebrity status to shine light on the horrific 'reality' of racism and police violence in Ferguson. Gotta love the empowerment of celebrity that can 'move mountains' for minorities forced by prejudice to live on the fringes of society, yes? Bless your astute presence to the cause, Jesse Williams; "BRAVO!"

I support the peaceful protesters in Ferguson and elsewhere. Thank you Jesse Williams for lending your support and using your platform to make a difference overall. Racial Profiling and Police Brutality are very serious issues!

Jesse is so articulate and inspiring .

So upset I missed him while I was in ferguson. He is brilliant.

Speak tbe truth Mr. Williams

Love you Jesse! I support you!!!

I am Darren Wilson! May God protect the officer who's given his whole life protecting the weak.

"Impunity", great way to put it.

Forgive if I don't know the exact terminology. With the "rules of engagement" being what they were the day Mike Brown was shot and killed by this police officer, I just don't see a conviction of him where he's going to have to do a significant time behind bars. Clearly, what happened was wrong; but to fix, we need to concentrate on getting these "rules of engagement" changed, not just putting one cop in prison. Sure, let's try to put him in jail, but let's also address how cops are allowed to interact with citizens who are, as this actor Jesse Williams said, "...just walking down the street...". I think Mike Brown was walking down the street in a manner that showed anybody who wanted to look his way that his testicles were huge. I don't believe the witness who said that they were just crossing the street. I think that both Mike Brown and his friend were walking down the middle of the street for quite awhile, for dozens of yards, for hundreds of feet. When I happen along in my three thousand pound vehicle, and I'm not doing what I usually do, which is driving on the sidewalk, but I'm driving in the street instead, and I have huge testicles by the way, and when there's a pedestrian walking down the middle of the street, guess who wins? I run him over. Why? Because I have bigger testes. Cops were invented to try to work out these differences among citizens before they become fatal. Cops happen along to these "shows of strength" and say to the pedestrian walking for a long time in the middle of the street: "OK, great. You have huge round things down there. Take you and your round mounds of greatness and walk them over to the sidewalk so that this other guy doesn't run you over." And then if you change direction at that point, and make a beeline for the sidewalk, and get there in a timely fashion--five or ten seconds--that cop won't shoot you. There has to be a way to move the pedestrians on over to the sidewalk without gunplay. Yes, we need to change the rules of engagement to save lives, but why is it wrong for a cop to remind a pedestrian that sidewalks are for pedestrians, and streets are for motor vehicles and bicycles? Yes, that cop swore at Mike Brown to get the eff out of the street. He was 18 years old. I learned a long time before I was 18 that you don't go walking down the middle of the street unless you're in a parade.

Yeah!!

Should have asked what do you think about them robbing stores
