can't stomach the ignorance . . .

If they had this much enthusiasm for an education, can you imagine what they could do?

I wonder if the insurance companies that are insuring these businesses are going to allow these continued claims, or will they start refusing to insure properties in this area? Just a thought.

 

[SnoopyDawgDawg]

Can anyone get an estimate on the crowd size?

They seem to understand how fire works when lighting businesses on fire or throwing Molotov cocktails at police men's bodies, but candles and flames suddenly a mystery.

Think about the incredible restraint these officers must have. I'm a calm person, and not there being threatened, and I'm angry.

My concern is they feel constrained by Holder. :stormingmad:

Cameraman questions why cameras are not all turned on. There are about 10 officers there with a couple of them with their cameras on. Why would they need 10 cameras?? Aren't they run by batteries? He's a cameraman how could he not figure that out?

holder today:

"these tensions simmer every day in far too many communities across the country," holder said. "the situation in ferguson has presented leaders across the nation … with a moment of decision, a moment of decision, a series of important questions that can no longer be avoided."

"will we yet again turn a blind eye to the hard truths that ferguson exposed? Or will we finally accept this mandate for open and honest dialogue?" he said.

not helping, just advancing his agenda. Moo. :silenced:

Why is making something of one's self and having an honorable job always looked at as being a "token"?

I know . . . it's truly disturbing to me the lack of positive guidance these people have had in their lives uke:

I heard them say "... Burn Officer Wilson"! I couldn't make out the rest. This is sick. These fools are going to keep it up until they're stopped. Plain and simple.

Right?

Police have retreated back across the street. Protestors chanting "Mike Brown means we got to fight back."

can't stomach the ignorance . . .

Can someone explain why exactly they are taking it out on the shop owners on W. Florrisant?

Whether it's deemed justfied or unjustified, these shop owners had nothing to do with the death of MB.

I know . . . it's truly disturbing to me the lack of positive guidance these people have had in their lives uke:

It's sad. My husband has a friend that is black and an airline pilot. He was teased by friends and family and called "token" for going into the aviation profession.

No
F-ing
Doubt

isn't it time to go home & to bed for work/school tomorrow???

 

[SnoopyDawgDawg]

"As soon as ya'll leave, we're f**!!ing some more sh** up!"

"We got to fight back! We got to fight back!"

"No more business as usual"

"They think it's a joke!" (This is the latest chant ad nauseum).

Bad news is, unified command is gone. Back to local authorities, who left the arsonists in last time. Took state authority to make arrests.

Local LE can arrest people.

 

[DebinGA]

Imagine how meaningless their lives have been if this is their highpoint.
