about time. great to read this news, though i'm unsure how it'll end, considering we saw the undoubtedly guilty zimmerman walk free after being charged with trayvon martin's murder. still, this is a promising development, one that we must not let fall by the wayside. it's important to keep pressure on them until some measure of justice is seen in this case. we cannot allow this blatant disregard for our humanity and civil rights continue. even if it means more blood must be shed. this has to end.

Two weeks after 19-year-old Renisha McBride was shot and killed in Dearborn Heights, Mich., her killer has been charged with second degree murder. Theodore Wafer has also been charged with possession of a firearm in commission of a felony.

Wafer, 54, claims that his shotgun accidentally discharged, striking McBride in the face after he heard her banging on his door around 3:40 a.m. on Nov. 2. Her family believes she was seeking help following a car accident.

McBride reportedly crashed her father's car into a parked vehicle around 12:57 a.m. in Detroit. By the time police arrived at 1:40 a.m., McBride was already gone.

According to toxicology reports, McBride had a blood-alcohol level of .218 and marijuana in her system at the time of her death. MLive.com reports that Gerald Thurswell, who is currently representing McBride's family, will address the situation later today.

They're already doing it. We're being realistic here. The racist legal system will vilify the victim and slander her name just to let this cac go free.

then it's up to us not to allow them to do that. defend her. state that her use of alchohol and marijuana on that evening does nothing to mitigate the severity and illegality of what the accused did. she is the victim, and we must assert that fact at every opportunity given. black people need to stop surrendering.

Everyone knows this. Even white people. But what can we do? Keep in mind that the law doesn't view black people as citizens. That's why we get ridiculous charges and sentences without any major backlash. Going to the UN about human rights violations is far more effective than wasting time with a legal system that conspires against us.
