FERGUSON: Michael Brown Sr. Asks for Calm

If Michael Brown's father can see this, everyone should -- he's asking for peace and calm when the grand jury's decision comes out.

America has been watching most of this while a suburban St. Louis grand jury decides whether Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson should stand trial for Brown's shooting death. And Michael Brown Senior knows passions will be high no matter what happens, so he recorded a PSA asking everyone to refrain from violence.

In the minute-long clip, Brown says, "Hurting others or destroying property is not the answer. No matter what the grand jury decides, I do not want my son's death to be in vain."

Ferguson police and the Missouri National Guard are bracing for a fervent reaction when the grand jury's decision is handed up.  bit.ly/1uNJpjw
