https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/nixonjustice?refcode=sm&%3Bamount=10.00&%3Brecurring=12Before news of the grand jury verdict in the case against Officer Darren Wilson, we have a key window of opportunity to stop County Attorney McCulloch from preventing justice for Mike Brown but we need Governor Nixon to act.
If enough people contribute, we can increase pressure on Governor Nixon to leverage his influence and secure a special prosecutor before it's too late. We finally found a St. Louis billboard company willing to help hold Governor Nixon accountable, we just need your support to make it happen.
Will you donate today to get this powerful billboard running outside Gov. Nixon's St. Louis right away?
I just did. please join me.

They can be years old, if the pictures of my house are anything to go by.

I know they're not real time . I'm wondering if this is a legit fundraiser or a scam. The site should give more details because for all we know their version of a billboard could be a $25 sign from Kinkos with 99.9% of the donation monies going to "administrative costs".

been shameful. He needs to go imho. I doubt he'll be much help in influencing anything that doesn't favor the political class. Maybe he can be shamed into it, but watching him throughout this situation, I wouldn't count on it.
