Rick Canamore who has been a very active in the protest in Ferguson is one who has no faith in the system and feels Darren Wilson will not be indicted.
“Even if the officer is indicted, protest and demands for justice, must continue,” Canamore, of nearby Normandy, where Brown attended high school tells CNN. “The area’s working-class African-American are tired of being hassled by police over things residents of more affluent areas don’t have to contend with.”
