Here’s the first sentence of the National Bar Association press release on the Ferguson Grand Jury decision:
WASHINGTON, DC – The National Bar Association is questioning how the Grand Jury, considering the evidence before them, could reach the conclusion that Darren Wilson should not be indicted and tried for the shooting death of Michael Brown.
Who is the National Bar Association?
They hold themselves out as the “black” version of the American Bar Association, as apparently the African-American Bar Association’s name wasn’t available at the time.
How, you ask, in spite of a mountain of damning evidence against robber Michael Brown and exonerating cop Darren Wilson, could the National Bar Association question the decision?
Thanks to an attorney in St. Louis posting a comment at the Truth About Guns, we have much of the answer:
1) Darryl Parks, who was one of the attorneys representing St. Trayvon Martin’s family, was recently president of the NBA. His law partner is Crump. Crump’s dad John was exec director of NBA for 25+ yrs.
2) Means is currently president and very close to Parks and Crump and stands to gain $$ from any civil suits
3) Crump is president-elect and used St. Trayvon’s death to jump in, and instead of spending several years like other leaders, moving up the ranks, and move from member at large, to VP, to President elect in 3 yrs.
4) The NBA only has about 2,200 paying members and is essentially broke, surviving on corporate donations. The “representing 60,000″ stuff is like the NRA says it represents all gun owners vs the 5M who actually pay
5) Sunny Hostin, who parades herself on CNN as a legal analyst and gave the wrong info during Zimmerman’s trial for killing St. Trayvon, is an NBA member and close to Parks and Crump. Funny CNN hasn’t put her to the side because of her close personal ties.
6) Al Sharpton is part of the shakedown with the NBA. He gets a cut of whatever fees get earned as a “consultant” and the NBA gets a referral.
It would certainly seem that the National Bar Association has all of the honesty and integrity of Michael Brown’s “friend” Dorian Brown.
I always rely on Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe for all of my legal advice.

Barry, that’s why I stick with Screwum, Stickem, & Shaftum.
National Bar Association does sound better than what they really should be called….. The National Blood Sucking Pig Waste Association.
Put all the lawyers in the grand canyon and have them lie each other to death. Then, fill with soil, manure and top with grass seed. You’ll have the world’s largest and longest golf course.
Putting extra manure on would be redundant.
and repetitious
… and duplicative.
