The Department of Justice filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city of Ferguson, Missouri, following the city's attempt to revise a negotiated consent decree. The lawsuit details a pattern of unconstitutional policing and a "debtor's prison" system that disproportionately affects black residents. Speculation arises that the extensive requirements for body cameras and training may serve as a template for privatizing the local police department.

The Department of Justice report on the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson is analyzed, noting that forensic evidence did not support the "hands up, don't shoot" narrative. While Attorney General Eric Holder cleared Officer Darren Wilson of civil rights violations, the report's focus on systemic issues and racist emails within the Ferguson Police Department is viewed as a shift in the media narrative to maintain social pressure.

Listeners and former DHS Undersecretary Michael Brown shared a tactic to avoid full-body "slave scanners" by claiming a medical inability to raise one's arms. This typically results in the passenger being directed through a standard magnetometer instead of receiving a pat-down. Brown confirmed via email that this method is effective, though he anticipates the TSA may eventually require medical certificates to close the loophole.
