They “didn’t build” them anyway.

Remember to listen to the two-thirds of the people who WON’T vote for you!

I lay it at the feet of the parents. Their “independent autopsy” proved the kid was in “charge” stance. If they had simply said something to the effect of “What he did was wrong and he paid for it with his life” instead of playing the victim card, things may be very different.

[Logical me]

Example of black justice. Never forget these wonderful animals.

The protesters want to boycott Black Friday sales...they just found out they still had to pay money for stuff.

Ferguson Protesters Now Blaming "the Jews" For Unrest, Death of Michael Brown

Now, back in the olden days rioters were treated with kid gloves, like this! Glad to see we are tougher today.(sarc)

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

I noticed a lot of these "protesters" were holding up signs that said "I am Mike Brown". Spike Lee has it on his Facebook page (see below). So I said that explains the looting and destruction. They're imitating the thug.

Just how many Fergusonions could have been helped personally with all the money this chaotic mess cost private citizens and the taxpayers. . . . . Heavenly Father, I pray that you intercede and provide relief for those innocent people who have lost so much and that people turn to you for answers. We also pray for justice and common sense in this time of evil and chaos. In Jesus Name, Amen

Something tells me that “whitey” didn’t own this business.

Under the shifting and situational conceptual system we have today, I think that anyone of any color who takes care of himself - whether by holding a real job or by owning a business that employs others - is "white."

[Salvation]

Hopefully the business will find a more peaceful city for their businesses.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

OMG! Someone shot a dog!

[Tenacious 1]

I did happen to note, while watching the riots on TV, ALL the perpetrators of the violence and destruction were democrats.

[Iron Munro]

I never understood the mentality of: I'm so pissed at the jurors for not jailing the white cop that I'm going to burn the business of someone that had absolutely nothing to do with it.

It is far past the time to stop pretending these animals, idiots and racists are normal people who mean well and can be dealt with as mental equals.

And it is time to stop pretending that their unhappiness, their inability to cope and their criminality, lawlessness, and stupidity is our fault and the fault of the nation.

As an example - we have some of the most stupid people to ever breath air sitting in congress and the senate making the most ignorant comments ever uttered. Yet the entire media and government pretend they are normal, reasonable people and capable of making intelligent decisions that affect the entire population.

We must accept the fact that not everyone is well-intentioned, capable of intelligent, informed judgement or equal in their ability to learn or function in a civil society.

[Seruzawa]

Want to deal with looters?

Two words.

Grazing fire.

[CodeJockey]

Where do the insurance companies get the money to pay all the claims?

[Red Badger]

They torched an Advance Auto Parts store. I wonder how many employees now have no job. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas...............

Did your first comment on the article you posted actually get removed by the moderator?

LOL.

I’ve never seen that happen.
