Until black Americans come to grips of the denial they are living, that they have fathers, brothers, sons that have a dark side to them that they do not expose to the ones they love, then there will be no peace.
Michael Browns family did not want justice, they want revenge, the same base emotion that drives them to tell the police “we did not see anything” or “we will handle this our way” when another black man shoots down another black man.
Now they are infuriated that they cannot make that revenge happen, that they will have to wait on the justice system, no matter their threats, which have been made from gang members all the way to state senators.
I mean really, does anyone have any doubts that Darren Wilson would have been murdered on the spot if he had stayed on duty?
Frankly, I am surprised they didn’t kill another officer by mistake, they damn sure burned down the wrong convenience store..
This entire area will suffer because of this and you can try to blame it on “white police just don’t know how to talk to black people” or “there needs to be a police force that is the same color as the citizens” but in the end it boils down to a cultural inability to rationalize and not be so uncontrollably emotional.
No. Four main problems
1. Black criminal thug culture,
2. Racial paranoia (the idea that white cops are gunning down unarmed black people every day— which is complete bullshit)
3. Black leaders that have a hamas mentality (they enjoy seeing their own people killed if it furthers their hate propaganda campaign against white cops)
4. An out of control propagandizing zealot media who cares nothing about the truth.
Megan McArdle explains how a similar thing has been happening recently in the suburbs, which is how Ferguson ended up with a white city council and mostly white police force that is resented by many among the town’s relatively recent black majority.
Aren’t the Democrats running the Ferguson govt tho. The mayor a Democrat. City council is Democrat majority...
Does this mean that white Democrats can’t represent a mostly black town????
Go to Fred Reed’s site and read the piece, What Cops Really Do
He completely left out the preponderance of violent criminal action by a very large segment of the black male population.
How about we hold blacks responsible for what they do?
How about the fact that disproportionately blacks have a large criminal element and generally speaking blacks are racial and don't much like whites?
The problem is not the white, racist power structure which doesn't exist. The problem is violent, ignorant, uncivilized, out-of-control blacks.
