Supporters of Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson __ currently on leave in an undisclosed location after the shooting of teen Michael Brown rallied in St. Louis today, proclaiming We will not hide, before adding,We are Darren Wilson.
The rally, held in a parking lot adjacent to Barneys Sports Pub, drew a small crowd relative to the size of the Ferguson rallys in support of Brown, and featured a speaker claiming to represent the online campaign Support Darren Wilson.
The woman, wearing a support Darren Wilson ball cap, sunglasses, and eye-black, did not identify herself and read from a prepared statement (see below) which was provided to the attending press.
According to the woman, her group is not speaking on behalf of Wilson or his appointed representatives, but that they believe his actions on August 9th were warranted and justified, despite an almost an almost complete absence of information provided by the Ferguson police department.

What's wrong with these people? The media they listen to and their leaders keep telling them to be scared all the time about everything.
I hope the future of the country doesn't depend on these folks, they scare easy
