RIP me.
Your response was mostly on course though. They did go to the UN, there just hasn't been a response. They should be ashamed, as should the group that flew them to geneva.
Waste of resources and waste of time.
Here's the real story -
http://www.cnn.com/2014/11/11/us/ferguson-brown-parents-u-n-/index.htmlSome gems.

The document says Brown's killing and force used by police officers during protests that followed the killing "represent violations of the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment."
Quote
It requests that the U.N. panel recommend the immediate arrest of Officer Darren Wilson, who killed Brown, as well as an end to "racial profiling and racially-biased police harassment across the jurisdictions surrounding Ferguson."
Quote
The statement also calls for recommendations that would apply to the entire United States, including that the attorney general and Department of Justice "must conduct a nationwide investigation of systematic police brutality and harassment in black and brown communities, and youth in particular. Methodology and findings of this investigation must be made publicly available."
Also, it's funny in the interview video, the mother says "we don't want anyone acting rational" she probably meant to say irrational but it's hilarious nonetheless because they're not thinking positive or protesting positively and they're most certainly not acting rational.
