My guess is this is nothing more than a ploy to calm the protesters down. I guess we'll see, but I'm thinking they don't have very strong evidence yet. The sad part is, this is playing with the lives of six officers and their families like they're puppets.

I agree, even if one of them somehow was guilty, if the other 5 are innocent their lives are now messed up either way.

Oh, without a doubt. Regardless of the trial outcome, the lives of all six and their families are forever changed.

The Police are not Animal Control for Humans. They cant just run around and arrest anyone without probable cause. It should have been "Why did you run?" "I dont like police" "Let me check for warrents... Oh nothing, Be on your merry way"
And even that is going too far. We do not live in a police state where police can arrest anyone for anything. There must be probable cause. And in this case they ruled that there was no probable cause. And there must be repercussions for those actions that left a man dead. Not a black man, but a man.

The law is too flexible on running from the cops. http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/national-international/Run-From-Police-US-Courts-Double-Standard-301733381.html
Why would you run if you are innocent? I mean if a cop makes eye contact with you in a car and you speed away in a hurry, will they pursue you for probable cause of suspicion?

We'll see how this plays out, it's early yet.

Innocent people don't run from the cops, simple as that.

While thats true, they still didnt have anything on him to even arrest him. They did find a knife, which is legal but they wanted to charge him with having a switchblade, even though it wasnt.

I guess I don't get why anybody would run away from a police officer unless you have something illegal on you or just did something illegal.
If I saw a police officer and made eye contact I'd just smile and nod and keep about my business. Last thing I would do is run. Or if they did arrest me, I wouldn't resist.
