If we're talking about race relations I support the right for the south asian store owner to have blown his ass out of the water for acting like a douche in the first place.

He got what he deserved.

Well has anyone interviewed his teachers, neighbors, the shop owner that he robbed, and so on?

Do you think they'd willingly go on camera when the "peaceful" protesters are threatening serious bodily harm and even death on those they don't agree with?

Exactly, there are a lot of people keeping quiet because of the bullshit protests. CNN said they had interviewed many people who stopped supporting Brown after they had read the evidence released yesterday. Sadly these interviews won't be heard because too many asshats are running around violently protesting and people are scared to come out against that.

I find it interesting that most of the protesters around the country are young, and they are constantly bringing up social media as their avenue of communication. You see large groups of college kids, (many of them white) running around in the streets chanting "hands up don't shoot". It seems that people are just jumping on the bandwagon at this point and want to be a part of this movement, even though they really don't know what they are standing up for.

I think kids just want to stand for something these days, and this is something they can tell their grandkids that they were a part of, even though the whole thing was based on misguided anger. I hope my kids aren't attention whores when they get older...I'd be embarrassed if they were out there blocking traffic with these clowns, supporting a completely invalidated cause.

You understand this isn't about Michael Brown but rather decades of injustice they've faced in their community, right? No? Okay.

Of course, and that is the problem. Let me put that in your language: You understand that making this about something unrelated is exactly the problem, right? No? Okay. The "injustice" angle is completely invalidated.

If they want a protest about injustice, they need to find an actual case of injustice, which shouldn't be hard to do if it is as big a problem to justify this. It's about Brown and Wilson which they wrongly PERCEIVED to be related to decades of injustice. They got it wrong and yet you seem to think it's OK to make this about something it shouldn't be about and to forget what it's supposed to be about. Making it about decades of injustice doesn't invalidate justice for Wilson or validate misplaced protesting.

I watched a bit of CNN this afternoon - they are still keeping the whole thing alive by having people on who are trying to say Brown was an innocent kid, conspiracy by prosecutor, etc. It's amazing the length they are going to. sickening.

and they are pissed the cop still has a job.

People pay the price for media irresponsibility. This makes irresponsible media behavior so sickening.



If i'm in Ferguson and subject to the fallout i'm pretty angry at CNN at this point. They more than any other helped fuel this BS. Dorian Johnson needs to be brought to justice for inciting this whole thing as well though his series of lies, repeated lies, crafted lies, and lies in the face of knowing the harm his lies would cause. Piaget Crenshaw can be taken to task as well for knowingly lying to help fuel this.

It's rather funny watching CNN at this point. Before all the facts came out FOX was the only one saying it was justified. along the way other stations changed from murder to a justified shooting. Now that ALL the information has came out CNN is the ONLY one still saying this is murder and keeping that flame going.

They are trying to keep the anti-white, anti-cop BS going. they refuse to admit to the facts. Though now the narrative is the prosecute and jury was out to get the kid.


another thing that blows my mind is that many are yelling at the cops. Saying that they knew that they would riot. So where are they? well shit they at home becuase they been vilified by the fucking nation on how they handled it. they figure why do shit. stay home and let them make fools of t hemsevles over how people are acting.

What's funny is that now everyone is complaining about the prosecutor and he's the reason why no charges were filed and that he has one time being accused of being unfair. He's been voted in since the early 90's so he's obviously been doing a fine job for them all these years if they keep voting for him.

Probably referring to all of these injusticed white people protesting:


I wonder if the blacks in the crowd are like "wtf, we are still the minorities, even in our own protests" lol.

I understand now. The advantage that youth has is that they have commitment with energy, driven to overcome all objections. Their disadvantage is that they sometimes don't fully consider what they are doing or why and if it's a valid perception. Impressionable and capable of being led by the nose, and the idea of fighting an injustice overwhelming appeals to the point that some do not know reality from emotional response. It's always been that way of course, and sometimes they are right. Not this time though.

I'm really surprised to see so many people protesting this. It was pretty clear cut what happened.

I prefer the ones with brooms and pointy hats. They really put a spell on you with their brew of coverage.

See I'm all about the new age ones that give their reports "nature-clad" with nothing but a crystal pendant dangling between their ample bosoms.
