The demographic, cultural and economic changes unfolding in America will eventually leave the country looking a lot like Ferguson today: divided between a rich, white minority establishment and a largely disenfranchised, multi-racial majority.
On Oct. 12 the good people of Ferguson, Missouri, continued to protest the unjustified shooting death of black teenager Michael Brown by municipal police officer Darren Wilson. Seventeen people were arrested for participating in an unlawful assembly outside a convenience store, and the following day, 50 others were arrested as part of an organized Moral Monday protest challenging St. Louis casual acceptance of police violence and brutality. Earlier this month, protesters disrupted a bastion of white elitism a performance of the St. Louis symphony as well as an event decidedly less elite: a St. Louis Cardinals game.
Discontent over the shooting of Michael Brown is not subsiding. It has seemingly evolved into a larger movement aimed at questioning the broader foundations of the system of structural inequality that black and brown men and women face every day. Indeed, it has broken out into the larger culture as a renewed debate over inequality in general in the contemporary United States. As is usually the case in the farce that passes for American political culture these days, perhaps the most interesting arena to watch this play out was not on any actual news program, but on a recent episode of The Daily Show in which host Jon Stewart and guest Bill OReilly discussed the concept of white privilege.

According to what evidence? All they have is the word of a proven liar and thief.”
mr Cavanaugh should let the grand jury know he’s already made the determination for them.
That recalcitrant PD in Ferguson has still not disclosed what is its version of events and months have passed. The longer the Ferguson PD continues to obfuscate, the worse it looks for the Ferguson PD.
Boy, I'm glad I don't call a place like that Ferguson home; something ain't right?
What does about 10 acres of land go for in your neck of the woods?
I calls 'em as I sees 'em.
YMMV.
You really have to like freedom to put up with Interior Alaskan Winters. WE came here 20 years back, never even think about leaving; heaven for us.
The collapse of America was self inflicted. Government has spent trillions of dollars expanding the underclass. By cradle to grave welfare systems, promoting legitimacy in the minority communities and importing people with no skills or abilities from the 3rd world.
I am sure that if the government get out of the welfare business, nature will correct the situation, and bring everything back into balance.
What about the millions of whites who are not rich or multi-racial?
Are they still planning on eliminating us now that Napolitano is gone from DHS?
Half the reason I stay away from TV is because I do not care to enjoin myself to the misery propagated onto the viewing masses that on serve to make us all foot soldiers in the latest social crusade.

This will get to the point that the police will be so hamstrung by demands and politically correct policies that there will be no enforcement, which is what they want.
It’s not up to them, the St. Louis County Police Department is in charge of the investigation.
The DOJ, however, is probably going to start leaking a little every day.
The author presumes that whites will die out in America. But America is one of the very few sanctuaries left for caucasians in the world, so realistically I don’t see that happening any time soon, if ever.
