Well from the looks of it, if the police in Ferguson were giving black men extra scrutiny, were they wrong to do so? Seems to be a lot of dirtbags in that town and they do have some commonalities.

From Rodney King, to Katrina, to MO, it's the same thing: Rob, loot, destroy not because of the real cause, but rather because it's an excuse to steal. Then, after they have turned their neighborhood into a cinder block, they wonder why businesses don't come in and create jobs for them.
Idiots.

Now this is the store that was robbed by Fat Bastard and Mini-Me is it not?

Exactly. Too often profiling is simply an efficient way to catch criminals and terrorists.

The businessmen are going to take the money from insurance and leave town. People will whine that there are no stores in Ferguson, and they have to ride a bus to shop. Just like Detroit.

The president needs to come here, Powell said. He needs to make sure they fire the police chief of Ferguson, get an alternative prosecutor and put [Gov.] Jay Nixon in a corner. He's anti-black people and pro law enforcement, Powell said. That will be a start.

What a great thing, community looting and rioting.
You can bet people are lining up almost fighting each other now just for the chance to build a nice retail business in Ferguson.
Who wouldn't? It's just common sense.
In fact, I bet Sharpton and the entire Jesse Jackson family will be there with their own cash in had looking for space to build and grow business after business.

So let me see if I understand their logic: a man robs a store and gets into a confrontation with the police, gets killed, and the neighborhood responds by robbing and destroying all the stores in their area.
Sounds like the real message is: If you open a store in our neighborhood, we will rob you. If you call the police and there are any repercussions we don't like, we'll destroy you completely.
Then they wonder why their whole area is economically depressed and few businesses want to open in their neighborhood.
Is the average IQ for this type of urbanite around 90?

The president needs to come here,
LOL! Oh please please I hope he does, we have a holocaust happening in the middle east while he plays golf and dances, but he’s going to go out of his way to support a guy who robbed a store?? YES! Do it do it ! LOL!
To: Oldeconomybuyer
I listened to an interview with one looter who justified it by saying the business gets profits, those profits helped pay for the police, and the police kill innocent black people, so the looters were denying the businesses of profits that fund murderous police.
Understand now?

Yep folks you are looking at a glimpse of the end game of liberal think and godlessness. Chaos.
Its what existed before God commanded Let there be Light. And the old fool that sits on the throne of human hearts has no problem with it just like this guy said. We better wake up soon or chaos will reign supreme again.

Wrong doing by the police is always a good excuse to loot and burn private business which supports your community. It just makes sense.

LOL! And robbing stores like Michael Brown did, that too reduces money to the POH-leese.

This is an escalation in the breakdown of a nation who has turned from God.
