On the Horizon

The recent sordid events in Ferguson, Missouri are troubling enough, but it could well be that they are merely a harbinger of much worse things to come.

Ferguson, at least in my opinion, is a conundrum, a “damned if you do, damned if you don't” situation that has allowed outside forces to paint it into a corner of potential violence regardless of how the grand jury decision on the killing of Michael Brown turns out.

Hillbilly common sense and logic. Sweet. You rock Charlie. But, I didn't see any mention of the Rodeo Drive/Beverly Hills riots after the oj simpson trial. Oh, right. There weren't any.

Shoot violent rioters would help to decrease the insane and send a message, enough is enough.

A few paths I’m wondering about:
- Would-be rioters get tired of the waiting and just let loose. (They don’t care what the verdict is, so at some point they won’t care to wait for it.)
- Enormous fizzle. When “put up or shut up” arrives, fact is they’re siding with a known thug - and may decide not to after all.
- GJ doesn’t commit to a verdict. They have a deadline, but may refuse to take a vote anyway.
- GJ indicts ... and the judge receiving the case takes one look and declares “what the he11 is this? you got nothing - get out of my courtroom!”
- Worst case happens and full-blown riots start ... until those agreeing to “come get some” get some. Hint taken, word spreads, organizers have nobody to organize.

Just wondering.

Those sound like good possibilities. From what I know right now,I wouldn’t think they could indict. If they do,I wouldn’t want to be the judge that gets the case. Certain folks seem to have a “Lynch mob” mindset & that’s all they can see.

The cauldron that is the Democrat plantation is boiling over. Militants, including Holder and company, are fanning the flames. They want a nationwide frenzy of violence and hate.

I think it would be humorous if the grand jury were to put off their decision indefinitely, driving the rage loons crazy with boredom. Let them rot in their own filth like Occupy did.
