FERGUSON, Mo. — The St. Louis County executive declared a state of emergency here on Monday as officials and activists sought to regain control of the volatile streets after plainclothes police officers shot and critically wounded an 18-year-old black man who they said was firing on them late the night before.

The police said the man, Tyrone Harris Jr., was among two groups of young people who exchanged gunfire near peaceful protests late Sunday on the first anniversary of the death of Michael Brown, an unarmed teenager who was killed by a white police officer in Ferguson. Prosecutors on Monday charged Mr. Harris, of the St. Louis suburb Northwoods, with 10 counts, including four of felony assault on a law enforcement officer.

Tyrone learns that he is in the left tail of the Bell Curve. Of course his kindergarten teacher coulda told society that, but no one listens.

Michael Brown was an “unarmed teenager” in the same sense that Rodney King was a “motorist”

Repeat after me, "they are just like us, they are just like us, they are just like us..." Pay no attention to the average American negro IQ of 85. Sure that means that half of them are severely to mildly mentally retarded but you're a racist for noticing. "Celebrate Diversity!"
