I completely understand that Furguson is in the st louis metro area. Maybe my original response made it sound as if I didn't. That wasn't the point I was making. Most of these looters are not from the actual Furguson community and saw a chance to get some free **** and took advantage of the situation.
Thank you, that kinda makes my point. There was stuff going on across the country (mostly peaceful) as well.
This is insane. Mike Brown was and still is a thug. He tried to get in a cop car to assault a police officer, the police officer did what was needed for his protection, shot the guy. I would've done the exact same thing if I was put in his shoes.
Holy crap, they just had a interview with the Brown family attorney on fox news, hard to watch without shaking your head.
Their son was a thug. After watching his father in law chanting some non G rated words, it gives me an all new perspective on these people's lives
Could someone please post the links to all the riots that went on when OJ Simpson was found not guilty of killing two white people? Thanks.
That's what I have been saying. If ever there was a time for "protest" that was it. But looking back now, seems like all involved had some bad karma.
If Barry Hussein Obama, Eric Holder, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and whomever else has been involved in stirring up these pots could just be HONEST and tell these people the truth, that "their boy" was a TURD and is dead because he was too stupid to behave like a civil human being, it might help a little.... I hereby nominate Michael Brown for the 2014 Darwin Awards for being so stupid that after he'd already been shot, he found it in his very poorly functioning mind to charge at the police officer who'd shot him, causing his life to end as a result. Seriously though, until some of the prominent talking heads of the black community are HONEST about this situation, the pot will continue to boil and spill over.... This wasn't about RACE until they made it about race.... I'm sure that mother who's child Officer Wilson was tending to a few short minutes before this incident has a differing view of Wilson than the human garbage running amuck in he streets do, but she was able to experience him as a human being, and develop an HONEST assessment of him. The numerous people who LIED to the Grand Jury should be charged with PERJURY and jailed, those who potentiated the lies regarding the details of the shooting likewise should be charged with inciting public panic, if a news channel is guilty, they should be fined a SIGNIFICANT amount that would be likely to encourage them to broadcast more honestly in the future. This situation, much like the Trayvon Martin situation, was a very easy legal case, very easily open and closed with basic legal defenses that anyone with a couple days to read the constitution and review the facts could have made a quick and correct judgement exonerating both Zimmerman and Officer Wilson from any wrong-doing. It is very sad that the POTUS and AG have meddle so deeply into both situations, yet when an 8 yr old girl is killed in a drive-by shooting, it's 3rd or 4th page news that they don't want to address... I'll respect Obama, Holder, Jackson, Sharpton, or any of those others when they go into Chicago and try to curb gang violence, take issue with drug dealers and drug offenders, and show up at he funeral of an innocent child killed by a stray bullet in a drive-by shooting... These are the places they need to be showing up, where they can make a positive impact, rather than the negative impact they've made in the above to cases....
Racism is such an easy fire to stoke, had the media not blew it up in MO it would've been some local issue we never heard about. I'm a black man, sure there are people in America who don't like me just for that reason, not all just White folks either.......my problem with the outrage about the Mike Brown thing is its an isolated incident, everyday across America hundred of black men are killed at the hands of other black men......march and riot about that. I apologize for the world having to watch blacks react to the verdict how we did down there, we all aren't like that.
This is the sad truth. We have to remember that just like on both sides of this incident the actions of the few don't represent the whole.
We know you're not all like that. But these inner cities are creating a situation that reflects negatively on the black race (wrongfully so) if things in this country are going to get better with regards to race relations, these thugs need to be stopped and it will take a major change in mindset and it has to start with the chosen leaders of those communities, all the way up to the president. Imo, the welfare state in those areas are a BIG part of the problem.
Not to worry, us white folks are much the same, we seem particularly found of killing our own family and friends over the killing of strangers, such just seems be the way were wired. We all have evil within us, the choice to control it, or display it up to only us, you just have to hope that these events are reason enough to teach our children how not to act in the face of adversity. Happy Thanks giving!
Exactly. These groups of protesters should be spending their time protesting and ranting about the community standards/mindset that produced a doped up thug who eyewitnesses testified did in fact assault a police officer and reacted irrationally and violently to law enforcement after he robbed a store and brazenly walked down the middle of a busy street. No one cared what color he was before he was shot due to his actions.
As if journalistic standards couldn't get any lower, the New York Times have outdid themselves. In an article published the same day as the grand jury came to their decision, they released the street name and town of where officer Wilson and his family lived. In what one could call poetic justice, someone went and released the home addresses of the two slimeball journalists that did this. Hopefully they'll get a taste of their own medicine. http://rightwingnews.com/media/two-...wilsons-home-address-look-see-home-addresses/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The St Louis news stations were broadcasting from his driveway the day his name was released. He's supposedly living in Texas now.
