INDIANAPOLIS, In (Sept 28th, 2014) –In the wake of the weekend shooting of a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, the Indianapolis-based Ten Point Coalition may move up its proposed trip to the trouble-plagued St. Louis suburb to help the community prepare for more fallout from the killing of teenager Michael Brown by police.

“We’re talking to several ministerial groups in Ferguson about us coming a little quicker than we had planned,” said Rev. Charles Harrison. “We’re scheduled to be there the ninth and tenth of October, which is a Thursday and Friday, but we may need to get there a lot sooner.

“As quick as they are prepared to make the committments, we are prepared to go. If we can get something worked out we are prepared to go as early as Tuesday or Wednesday if we have to get there sooner.”

Harrison is worried that the Saturday night shooting of the officer, which the Ferguson chief said is unrelated to the Brown case, and a report of shots fired at another officer in St. Louis may indicate the environment is spinning out of control.

“We’re gonna have to do it very quickly and we may have some people there to try to help them during this time. We are negotiating that. We may leave a few people there in Ferguson for a while if we get a sense the grand jury may come back with something quickly.”

The grand jury is examing the shooting of Brown by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson August 9th.

Chief Thomas Jackson apologized to the Brown family last week but his statement was met with derision by some members of the community as was an appearance by a Missouri State Patrol commander.

“They tried to apologize but they didn’t make much headway,” said Harrison. “Seems like the people that were there demonstrating really didn’t want to hear that. The only thing that seems to satisfy them is that the officer who shot Michael Brown being arrested seems to be the only thing that will calm them down.”

Harrison is worried that Ten Point is being invited to Ferguson to provide the leadership and answers that aren’t currently present in the community.

“What seems to be absent right now is the lack of leadership and you really don’t have anybody in charge and some of the people who seem to be speaking, in my opinion, are encouraging this kind of disrespectful behavior we are seeing right now in Ferguson.”

Harrison said his group is prepared to leave some its staff in Ferguson to help the local faith-based community organize peaceful street outreach patrols andthe establishment of dialouge between the police, city leadership and residents.

There must be a 7-11 or a Gap still standing to loot.

“Looting tourism” is the new fad...

Who knows why you just had to make that lean,
who knows why you became part of the gangsta scene,
who knows who sold you all them blunts,
who understood your whistles and your grunts,
who made you assault the neighborhood watch,
whose jewelry was that you were caught w/at school
who made you act the ghetto fool?

Why didn’t your Crip daddy stick around,
whose head on the pavement did you pound,
who had to make a decision that fateful night,
when you left him no escape and picked a fight,
who made the choice to mock and sass,
an armed watchman (you called “creepy ass”),
who could’ve gone home but didn’t there go,
instead walked towards a six foot deep hole.

Sorry about this Ferguson. The 10 point people do nothing but demand more funding from guilty white liberals. Indianapolis has been plagued with black violence without a peep from these jackasses.

"dialogue between the police and residents"

Even the Obama-Holder Dept. of Just Us and Our People must be aware that outrageous charges against law enforcement is b.s.

Even under Obama-Holder there were studies of the issue.

My summary of STUDY FINDS SOME RACIAL DIFFERENCES IN PERCEPTIONS OF POLICE BEHAVIOR DURING CONTACT WITH THE PUBLIC

An estimated

Contact between police and the public

The majority of persons

thought the police behaved properly during the contact. Less than 5 percent filed a complaint.

Black drivers were more likely than

to be pulled over in a traffic stop; 13%, 10% and 10% respectively.

Less than one percent each

were (equally) likely to be stopped in a street stop. Blacks were less likely than whites and Hispanics to believe the police behaved properly during the encounter.

About

believed they were stopped for a legitimate reason.

For the traffic stops

67 percent, 74 percent, and 84 percent respectively believed the reason for the stop was legitimate.

When residents and officers are

the residents were more likely to believe

About

The majority of both did not believe the police had a legitimate reason for the search.

White drivers were searched at lower rates than

About one in eight U.S. residents

Police response

were satisfied with the police response; and

who reported a crime or neighborhood disturbance thought the police were helpful.

For noncrime emergency

to think the police were helpful; 83 percent, 96 percent, and 94 percent respectively.

Other findings include―

"In 2011, there were small racial differences in the percentage of drivers who were ticketed. A greater percentage of black (7 percent) and Hispanic (6 percent) drivers were ticketed than white drivers (5 percent).

"About one percent of drivers pulled over in traffic stops had physical force used against them by police. Of these drivers, 55 percent believed the police behaved properly during the stop.

"About six in 10 requests for police assistance involved face-to-face contact with an officer."

"These finding are based on the Police-Public Contact Survey (PPCS), a supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey, which asked a nationally representative sample of U.S. residents age 16 or older about experiences with police during the prior 12 months.

"The reports, Police Behavior during Traffic and Street Stops, 2011 (NCJ 242937) and Requests for Police Assistance, 2011 (NCJ 242938), were written by BJS statisticians Lynn Langton and Matthew Durose. The reports, related documents and additional information about the Bureau of Justice Statistics’ statistical publications and programs can be found on the BJS website at http://www.bjs.gov/."

My EMPHASIS ON SURVEY.

People including policemen injured in Ferguson should seriously consider suing the protest organizers and MSM employees using the doctrine of vicarious liability.

This may take more than Kilo 3 6 to put out this fire. But the Second Division can do it.
