Black Lives Matter Activists demand release of all body cam video and justice for Amonderez P. Green on anniversery date of no indictment of Darren Wilson

#OccupyFerguson PD Tuesday, November 24, 2015 @6pm

Ferguson Protesters-Black Lives Matter Activists demand release of all Ferguson's police department video-cam footage and justice for Amonderez P. Green. The entire event was likely caught on video by body cameras, but local officials are refusing to release the footage. Ferguson Police claims Green fatally shot himself during a shoot out with officers near Ferguson MO. But his father claims reports of suicide are a lie. In a scene all too similar to the police shooting of 18-year-old Mike Brown in Ferguson MO, dozens of people saw the shooting unfold.

Police say Green and officers exchanged gunfire but either was struck.They say Green after exchanging gunfire ran a short distance then shot himself. Green also was black, the officer, a 12-year veteran of the department, is white,  he is on paid leave. Green's father, Jermell Simpson, told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that reports of suicide are a total lie. Videos posted to YouTube and other social media sites also questioned the police account of suicide, with some witness claiming Ferguson police officer shot Green.
http://fox2now.com/2015/11/19/body-camera-video-shows-moments-after-police-say-normandy-teen-shoots-self/

All eye-witness accounts of what happened to Green point to murder. We need the cam footage of the shooting in order to hold law enforcement accountable for this brutal violence. Time and time again, we've seen what happens when local officials are able to keep this type of key information from family members and the public. The longer videos are kept secret the easier it is for police to doctor the footage or alter their stories to fit what's caught on camera instead of what actually happened. Although Ferguson MO police have released edited partial video to support their conclusions  https://youtu.be/P1I7qxpjybM this is not enough when they have the entire footage on tape. We need full transparency and public accountability or else we will never be able to end the racist culture of corruption and violence that leads to these tragedies. We need answers now!

Ferguson Police released this second video November 19, 2015 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lsWbBWUPzM&sns=em If Green shot himself in the head like Ferguson Police alleged, why is the gun 200 feet away from Green's body?

Now, it's time for us to help turn up the pressure to get Green family the answers they deserve. Enough is enough, join us November 24, 2015 at 6 p.m, in Ferguson MO, in front of the Ferguson police department. The anniversary date of the no indictment of Darren Wilson, the Ferguson cop that murdered Mike Brown, we will demand the unedited version of the cam footage. They must hear us, and together we can make it so.

But I'll be frank, we need you with us and your help. We've got to build up as much power as we possibly can.  This is a call for every single activist who stands up for justice.

Days away from victory

Ushering in reforms in the City of Ferguson with most City officials resigning. We are just steps away from wholesale  corrective action holding the last duet of the remaining City officials of the corrupt regime accountable. Ferguson City Prosecutor Stephanie Karr and Mayor James Knowles. 

Attorney General Eric Holder said "some of the protesters was right" after a Department of Justice Report (DOJ) revealed a pattern of racial bias by the City of Ferguson officials. http://time.com/3732227/eric-holder-ferguson-law-enforcement/

But I'll be frank, we need you with us and your help.

We've got to build up as much power as we possibly can. Every single activist who proudly stands up for justice and equality brings us closer to where we need to be.

We need to demand our Court protect our recall petition and sustain the recall of Mayor Knowles-demand that our lawmakers hold Ferguson City Prosecutor Stephanie Karr accountable and ensure justice thrives for all. Until they do, we need to hold them accountable by keeping the momentum alive here in Ferguson Missouri.

They must hear us, and together we can make it so.

NOT ONE DIME 2015

 LETS KEEP APPLYING THE PRESSURE - RECALL FERGUSON MAYOR 2015 -NOT ONE DIME -NO MORE FERGUSON COLLECTING ON BLACKTAX

While the City of Ferguson Missouri officials - Counsel members continue to promote their on agendas, not a single one has expressed strong support of the Department of Justice (DOJ) or to protect the rights of the registered voters in Ferguson and their rights to sign the recall petition of Mayor James Knowles.  A public office is a public trust;' solely for the good of the public, the people of Ferguson have express they have no trust in the office of Mayor.

We have been outraged by the fact that with new elected Counsel members in Ferguson that they would standby and watch the injustice all to save one person, Mayor James Knowles. "[I]nitiative, referendum and recall are rights reserved by the people, and as such are to be construed to make effective the reservation of power by the people." State ex rel. Ferro v. Oellermann, 458 S.W.2d 583, 586 (Mo. App.1970). Whether City officials agree or not with the recall, their constituents signed the petition and counsel members should have worked hard to assure that the people they represent has a voice.

We are currently still in court over the recall petition. Soon we will be filing for summary judgment over hundreds of valid signatures that the City of Ferguson and the Missouri Election Board tried to invalidate. Summary Judgment: A request for a decision by a court of the matters submitted to it, based upon legal arguments only, where no material facts are in dispute.

We "US" have the impact needed to demand and protect the people of Ferguson vote as they signed the recalled petition, and ensure justice is served by recalling Ferguson Mayor James Knowles.

This summer, we marched for Justice. We rallied, and we made our voices heard - our journey for justice must continue. We've got to make sure they still hear our call that our lives, and our votes matter. Help us apply the pressure needed.

We really need your help today in order to see this through to the end.  Can you CLICK this link and chip in? Yes I'll chip in.

Journey for Justice

In our journey for justice - moving Ferguson Forward and recall of Ferguson mayor James Knowles. 

We've protested and occupied streets, but not avenues with homes. We paved the way for ambulances and even apologized to other citizens and police, by making them work all night while hostile residents yelled out slurs pointing their fingers at us. These acts drew the attention of the world.

All citizens should have the rights to speak and voice their signature in a recall petition. Initiative, referendum and recall are rights reserved by the people, and as such are to be construed to make effective the reservation of power by the people. State ex rel. Voss v. Davis, Mo., 418 S.W.2d 163.

These rights can no way be thwarted by the act of a single individual, "the City of Ferguson Clerk." State ex rel. Ferro v. Oellermann, 458 S.W.2d 583 (Invalidating actual signatures in hopes of hindering the recall process of Ferguson mayor James Knowles.)

We need your support to keep our effort moving forward in recalling-ousting Ferguson mayor can you CLICK this link and chip in?

The effort has been incredibly inspiring so far—people of all ages, colors, faiths, have been protesting at Ferguson City hall with heat indexes well above 100 degrees hand in hand in the name of justice demanding the recall of Ferguson mayor.

And no matter the obstacle, we're protesting with our heads held high because we know we are on the right side of justice. We're on the right side of history, and we will not be silenced. #OurSignaturesMatter

Recalling Ferguson Warrants Is Not Enough

All Ferguson Tickets Should Be Abolished

Ferguson is painting a false picture as if they are trying to gain trust in the community with the recall of arrest warrants-court order issued by City of Ferguson Judge attached.

https://www.rt.com/usa/313405-ferguson-revokes-10000-warrants/

Before the City of Ferguson took the initiative to recall warrants other towns had already started. Kirkwood MO. http://www.kirkwoodmo.org/mm/files/MunicipalCourt/2015%20Documents/Municipal%20Court%20Warrant%20Recall%20Notice%20August%202015.pdf to be in compliance with Missouri New State Law, Senate Bill, that's takes effect August 28, 2015. 

http://www.senate.mo.gov/15info/BTS_Web/Bill.aspx?SessionType=R&BillID=160

Stltoday, talks more about the Senate Bill http://m.stltoday.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/sweeping-court-reform-comes-as-nixon-signs-bill-to-cap/article_cafffb7e-b24d-5292-b7bb-84ef81c6e81d.html?mobile_touch=true

As of today, the City of Jennings Missouri, has agreed to abolish ticket m.stltoday.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/city-of-jennings-settles-with-civil-rights-lawyers-on-major/article_480a7d9d-6006-5efc-8521-02ec0d0d3743.html?mobile_touch=true in parallel with the new Senate Bill. 

After the unrest in Ferguson 2014, the City of St. Louis, Missouri abolished tickets. http://m.stltoday.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/st-louis-to-forgive-about-warrants-for-nonviolent-municipal-offenses/article_7f9dbef3-7409-5e81-ae28-3c79faa8b147.html?mobile_touch=true Forgiving these ticket was a way for them to try and regain trust in the community.

Ferguson Missouri is the center of attention here. According to the Department of Justice, Ferguson Court Clerk, Prosecutor (Stephanie Karr), Judge and Mayor was involved in voiding tickets for each other and their family and friends. http://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/opa/press-releases/attachments/2015/03/04/ferguson_police_department_report.pdf

Prosecutor Stephanie Karr, was even accused of misconduct, http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/7707802 and is still working for the City of Ferguson after others accused resigned.

Chief of Police Thomas Jackson http://www.cnn.com/2015/03/11/us/ferguson-police-chief/

City Judge http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/03/09/ferguson-mo-judge-resigns/24673097/

The DOJ Ferguson Report also pointed out that the City of Ferguson was bias among African Americans and violating their constitutional right. Giving them tickets for things such as "talking back." "Talking Back To Police." http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/03/05/us/us-calls-on-ferguson-to-overhaul-criminal-justice-system.html?referrer=&_r=0 As President Obama said: "we don't need a Ferguson report to see that." https://m.youtube.com/watchv=FLqLWBdZIVU&feature=youtu.be

Like the City of Jennings and St. Louis City, Mo, these tickets not only need to be recalled, but abolished. This would be a step in the right direction for leaders of Ferguson!

Ferguson officials have a track record of voiding-abolishing tickets for themselves, family and friends. But, when it comes to the poor people of Ferguson who has received tickets though way of the predator type of law enforcement in Ferguson, Ferguson feels those people are criminal and should be held accountable. Unlike their family and friend who received legitimate tickets and wasn't prayed upon.

The final steps in the right direction world be to give the boot to the final regime of the predators in the Ferguson DOJ Report, Prosecutor, Stephanie Karr and Mayor, James Knowles. Can you chip in to help our effort in Ferguson Missouri Mayor recall process. We have a pending lawsuit in court asking the court to order the City of Ferguson to certify our recall petition. Yes, I'll chip in

Ferguson Black Tax Continue

Here’s how incestuous and crooked the small-town of Ferguson officials and system has been

"Ferguson Black Tax" contiue and being heavily enforced by Ferguson Prosecutor, Stephanie Karr. The highest court we’ve got took decisive action to address the kangaroo municipal court where Ronald J. Brockmeyer galavants around St. Louis County playing judge sometimes and prosecutor at others. As judge in Ferguson, he essentially operated the city cash register by fining — and then fining some more — Ferguson’s black residents. "BlackTax" or FergusonBlackTax

St. Louis Post-Dispatch story painted Brockmeyer, a lawyer in St. Charles County, as a veritable Pone Express dispenser of legal services, working as a judge or prosecutor in five different municipalities, as well as representing defendants.

Here’s how incestuous and crooked the small-town system has been: “Judge” Brockmeyer once prevailed on Ferguson prosecutor Stephanie Karr to dismiss a traffic ticket he had been issued in a nearby municipality where Karr was also the prosecutor, also Ferguson mayor has had Karr to dismiss tickets for his friend and coworkers.

In a recent report, the U.S. Department of Justice http://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/opa/press-releases/attachments/2015/03/04/ferguson_police_department_report.pdf excoriated the Ferguson Police Department and Municipal Court for routinely violating people’s — mostly black people’s — constitutional rights. The report said Ferguson’s fines were among the highest in the region, with hundreds of dollars levied for such violations as “peace disturbance,” “failure to comply” and “manner of walking.”

Manner of walking?

Citing the need for “extraordinary action,” the Supreme Court appointed Judge Roy Richter of the Missouri Court of Appeals in St. Louis to go in, hear cases and clean up the mess.

But Stephanie Karr is not finish yet with Ferguson Black Tax, one year later she's still pumping out arrest warrants.

A year after the fatal shooting of Michael Brown sparked a firestorm in Ferguson, the city is still pumping out thousands of new arrest warrants and jailing people over minor offenses, according to an exclusive CNNMoney analysis. This practice continues despite a scathing report from the Department of Justice in March that found that Ferguson's police department and municipal court were unconstitutionally targeting low-income and minority residents with tickets and fines for minor offenses -- often in pursuit of revenue. The report noted that there were more than 16,000 people (residents and non-residents alike) with outstanding arrest warrants as of the end of last year, equivalent to around 75% of the town's population. http://money.cnn.com/2015/08/06/news/ferguson-arrest-warrants/

"Ferguson Municipal Court Judge Ronald Brockmeyer, has since resigned. But Karr -- who by day works for Curtis, Heinz, Garrett and O’Keefe, one of several St. Louis law firms that profit off of the county's network of tiny municipalities desperate for revenue -- is still around and doubles as the City of Ferguson counsel."  http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/7707802

In Ferguson Missouri, life of Black Lives Matter, residents, activists and protesters have opposed the city council and mayor hiring of the current city manger and chief of police. So far—City Officials are feeling the heat. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/08/13/ferguson-s-police-chief-was-suspended-three-times-from-his-previous-job.html

Activists and residents in Ferguson is still fighting to get Ferguson mayor James Knowles kicked out of office. Hiring of the two African Americans, city manager and chief of police was a unique idea by mayor Knowles to get support from the African American community of Ferguson. Since we have filed a lawsuit asking the court to order the City of Ferguson to immediately certify our recall petition Knowles has been quietly reaching out to dozens to explain his decisions and get them to join his side and support him. We are winning!! But now, we need to pay our attorneys that's fighting this for us. Can you chip in to help us pay our attorney? Yes, I'll chip in

The world is watching what happens next with the recall and oust of Ferguson mayor and his new appointees. They're trying to figure out what has really changed after the one year murder of Mike Brown by Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson. So this is the moment for us to double down.

Can you chip in to help buy literature to mail to Ferguson residents explaining our contentions, platforms and buy billboards in Ferguson calling out Mayor Knowles to resign.

This motion filed by the City of Ferguson is frivolous. I don't know what the attorney motive(s) was in regards to filing this motion to dismiss count 2 of our petition.

In regards to count 2 of our petition, if the City of Ferguson win on count 1, which I don't think they will, count 2 is automaticlly dismissed. So there was no need to file a motion to dismiss count 2.

When we win on count 1, the court will automatically grant count 2.

For these reasons stated above, it's my conclusion that the City of Ferguson understand that they will not win on count 1. So they are now preparing for count 2.

Here is an urgent request from some friends in Ferguson, Missouri.

Here's the quick back story: You probably heard that the Department of Justice recently issued an unprecedented report exposing leaders in Ferguson for grave violations of the civil rights of Black residents. Six community officials—including the chief of police—have been forced from their posts.

April 08, 2015 Ferguson added three new council people two blacks and one white, neither is for direct change in Ferguson Missouri.

A group of Ferguson community residents and leaders came together to oust the mayor in a recall petition for allowing the grave injustice committed by officials of the City of Ferguson. Leaders and residents turned in over 3,300 signatures when only 1,815 was needed. The clerk of Ferguson and the Board of Elections coupled together are trying to hinder the process of leaders and residents ousting the mayor.

Ferguson city Clerk who has the duty to verify the petition signatures certified the petition as invalid lacking 27 signatures from initiating the recall process getting the mayor name back on the ballot. Ferguson Clerk is trying to turn our valid petition into an invalid petition by invalidating actual valid signatures, alleging registered voters are not registered when in fact they are.

We have filed a lawsuit in Saint Louis County Circuit Court asking a judge to order the Clerk to certify our petition. NOW. And whether this gets off the ground is up to us—This effort will only succeed if organizers can raise money to sustain there efforts in Ferguson on the ground.

In the wake of crisis in Ferguson Missouri, city leaders have hired two "bonus blacks" http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/ferguson-gets-new-police-chief , 1st, a city manager from Arizona to handle Ferguson day-to-day operations who almost bankrupted the small town he was from in Arizona while working as city manager. 2nd, police chief from Arizona, the small town where the city manager came from who was hard on Latinos and African Americans, nor is he license in the State of Missouri to be a peace officer.

We cannot turn a blind eye to these soring incompetent decisions made by the new and old city officials after the blistering DOJ report. 

"In Ferguson, a city that's two-thirds African American, nearly all police officers are white. Black residents have been routinely harassed and detained by police without provocation. Dogs have been set on kids as young as 14, who were later not even charged with a crime. People have been thrown into crippling financial debt for low-level citations while high-ranking officials engaged in the worst forms of nepotism and cronyism to shirk their own speeding tickets."

It will be a huge undertaking to make the kinds of structural and leadership changes needed to address these issues that are affecting Ferguson—and many of our communities. But that change begins by having a mayor with leadership who will be responsive to communities of color. And what better place is there to start than Ferguson, Missouri?

With your support, residents and organizers will elect a new mayor for leadership to advocate for commonsense reforms, and demand leadership that will make competent decisions for the people of Ferguson.

This is the next step that some key local organizers in Ferguson want to take—and we're asking for your help. This is an opportunity to turn the national attention on Ferguson into meaningful action that will improve the lives of local residents while serving as a model for community empowerment that could be echoed and adopted throughout the country. But, because organizers rely on donations to push harder and move to the next step, we can only win if enough of us chip in. Can you chip in to support this important effort?

Yes, I'll chip in. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscrcmd=_sxclick&hosted_button_id=7T9H7GSZJXPXW

We need to make sure that in Ferguson, resignations in the wake of the Department of Justice report are just the beginning.

The officials who committed grave injustices against the people of Ferguson must be held accountable for the lives they altered and ruined. New leadership needs to be elected so Ferguson can rebuild and start again.

The world is watching what happens next in Ferguson—and organizers in Ferguson know what happens in their community has the potential to spur people all over the country to change unjust systems and build communities based on justice and dignity for all of us.

To get started, they need your support. I just chipped in—will you?

Yes, I'll chip in and help create lasting political change in Ferguson. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7T9H7GSZJXPXW
