Thousands Attend Michael Brown's Funeral in St. Louis 
------------------------------------------------------


 
Thousands of people attended a funeral in St. Louis Monday to remember
Michael Brown. Rev. Al Sharpton was among the speakers.

Reverend Al Sharpton: "This is about justice. This is about fairness.
And America is gong to have to come to terms with there's something
wrong that we have money to give military equipment to police forces,
but we don't have money for training or public education or money to
train our children."

We'll have more from the funeral after headlines.
