Rioters, looters, and their enablers on the Left love to chant, "No justice, no peace!"  In one sense of these words, I completely agree. There can be no durable and genuine peace without justice.  But there can be no administration of justice without respect for  truth.  In the Ferguson affair, did justice demand the indictment of Officer Darren Wilson?  No, because the evidence presented to the grand jury, which is as close as we are likely to come to the truth of what happened in the altercation between Wilson and Michael Brown, did not warrant Wilson's indictment.<\/span><\/p>\n

But leftists, true to form, have chosen to ignore the truth.  They value truth only if it fits their 'narrative.'  According to the 'narrative,' white cops driven by racial animus routinely gun down unarmed blacks.  That's a lie and a slander, and leftists  know it.  But playing the race card works for them politically which is why they play it.  So their calls for justice are hollow and indeed absurd.  There can be no justice without truth.<\/span><\/p>\n

No truth, no justice!<\/span><\/p>\n
