Sick of this story. I live in St. Louis, and it's been nonstop fanning of the flames by the media here for the past four months. Front page article in the St. Louis Post Disgrace (a liberal rag to end 'em all) every day is about this story, police brutality, etc. It's atrocious how the media has been pushing this story.

Why do WE need to come together? Excuse me, but I'm not assaulting officers. I'm not trying to take their firearm. I'm not burning down businesses. I'm not looting. I'm not preying on those weaker than I. I'm not race hustling. I'm not a criminal.

In other words, the "good" people of Ferguson need to come together with ME and people like ME. I don't owe these people jackshit.

I think i and many other people in this country would just rather them renounce their troublesome, thieving, drug pedaling, murderous gangs from this point on.

Their gangs are responsible for more deaths of black males than all police forces in the U.S. combined.

Are the behavioral expectations of some citizens so low, that two notorious, likely murderous, gang bangers putting aside their normal illegal activities for an evening is the "good" amongst the insanity?

Rome wasn't built in a day.

So will there be a Southpark on this or no?

They would have a field day with this but it may be a bit too risky even for them...

I agree. But my point was, if that's the "GOOD" in this situation, then this situation is much more dire than i first suspected.

I think there is other good going on in Ferguson. But you're right, to find it you really have to look for it.

Interesting... not a single word about race.

There was no race component in the incident. The only race part of this unfortunate event is by the race mangers who use it to personally or politically profit such as sharpton, Obama, etc. the cop was helping a black mother just prior to the incident and the physical evidence and black testimony back up the cops account which was totally proper and correct. The guy was a thieving thug and got what he deserved. To bad the town and a good cop have to pay for his mistakes.

Still can't imagine the ignorance needed to destroy your own neighborhood because you don't like a court ruling. Cities like Newark, Detroit, etc never recovere from the riots of the 60s. They should use video tape to prosecute every rioter, looter, and clear the garbage out off that town and others. There should also be stronger felony laws that they can use to dissuade people from doing violent protests, riots, etc. punishment instead of jail should offer the option of becoming a laborer that fixes the damage done or military service if appropriate.

Yup, you're right.

I'm late to this thread, but those are my thoughts exactly. People are claiming this kid was a saint who wouldn't hurt anyone, which clearly isn't the case.

You forget that only whites can be labeled as racist, and perform hate crimes.

Especially when its a cop who is attacked by an individual who just committed a robbery... yes, a hate crime.

Your IQ level is that of a peanut although my expectations were not different.

Especially when there were chants of "kill the white people" as this was happening. If slavery has anything to do with Ferguson, then this country if officially retarded.

Why do I deserve such an insult when I simply stated I wasn't aware of an event in history? Sounds like you're trying to read between the lines when it's not necessary. This country has been officially retarded for years, nothing new.

Also, why would you expect my IQ level to be that of a peanut? Please explain.

EDIT: Your link does not work.

Wait a minute, you stated that I have an IQ of a peanut because I didn't know Bosnians are Caucasians?

You also have a pre-conceived notion that I already would have a low IQ. How is that possible when you don't know anything about me other than the fact that I've stated my ethnicity a few times on here?

These are the exact reasons why all these issues arise, you are quick to judge and slow to help. Instead, how about informing a fellow member?

[grimlock]

^Maybe he thought you meant "Bostonians"...

[KingOfJericho]

I think his point is that if it was four white teens killing a black man with hammers in front of his wife, they would say it as such and label it a hate crime. Because it was the other way around, the perps are only referred to as "teens" and no possible motive is mentioned or insinuated.

Dafuq is a Bostonian? Wait, is this going to make my IQ level go down because I asked a question? (see: fallacious statement)
