That's a public education @ work right there. Sorry Sparky but that isn't even close to being true.

It’s actually closer to 200 years, while white indentured servants have been here for closer to 300-400 years outnumbering the blacks at that time by 4 to 1.

Maybe behavior and thinking has more influence upon their treatment than race,...ya think?

If they have a problem, take it out on the people most responsible - the Mohammedans. Instead, they embrace Mohammedism.

Beyond stupid.

You never, ever hear Blacks like ˜Fat Albert" here opining they wish they were back in there ancestral Utopia of Africa.

Any place in Africa would be so much better for Blacks than the hell-hole that is America but I don't see any of them leaving and seeking asylum from American discrimination and persecution.

“Four hundred years we been here.”

Since he claims he came here from Africa 400 years ago, maybe we can take a collection to send him back there now. Plenty of today’s Africans would love to take his place here.

In 1992 Maxine Waters referred to the LA riots as a rebellion, a revolution, an uprising.

This black revolution was followed with the 1st WTC bombing.

Following the 2000 election where it was claimed Bush stole the election from blacks, Jackamo Jackson referred to it as a rebellion, a revolution, an uprising.

This black revolution was followed by a 2nd attack on the WTC on 9/11.

We now have a third “black” rebellion, revolution, uprising and once again terrorist, ISIS, have made a terrorist threat against NYC.

Find an incident, a spark to ignite the flame, ratchet it up to a raging inferno. “Prairie Fire”-Bill Ayers-Weather Underground

Since 1991, each and every time a Clinton has their sights set on the WH or staying in the WH, we get the Weather Underground playbook of “black revolution” followed with a terrorist attack.

At what point does it stop being “just a coincidence”?

“We built this place for free and y’all still hate us.”

Hey, y’all didnt build that

Besides, you’ve done a DAMN good job of tearing it down. Even the stuff we’ve built.

Do the blacks ever consider that perhaps if they actually changed their lifestyle of robbing, stealing, rioting, looting and the like, and actually TRIED to clean up their culture that the police would NOT HAVE REASON to stop them and harass them? Part of “Protect and Serve” INCLUDES protecting ALL those who do not “live” such lifestyle. I have NO DOUBT there are good, law abiding blacks out there who have been “stopped”, all because their “bros” have given police a reason.

If the left isn’t orchestrating civil unrest with blacks prior to a terrorist attack the left is orchestrating civil unrest with Hispanics prior to a terrorist attack.

If it isn’t blacks or Hispanics the left is ginning up the civil unrest with prior to the terrorist attack, the left is orchestrating stories and making claims the ultra violent, racist, right wing extremist are out to overthrow the govt of the US.

The left is orchestrating civil unrest as part of the preparations for the terrorist attacks.

One time it might be blacks they gin up civil unrest with and claim it’s a “ black revolution”, next time it might be Hispanics and a “Hispanic revolution”, then it might be ultraviolent “white racist” that are conducting a “white revolution”.

What about the Irish, the Chinese, and others who were much more expendable, since no one had paid money for them, and therefore were treated far worse? Besides, if he'd rather his ancestors had been left in Africa, so he'd have been born there, well, go there. Nothing stopping him.

First, there is no evidence that the black guy was surrendering with his hands up. That statement first came for his partner in crime, one Darian Johnson, who has since been discredited and charged with theft and lying to police. The protestors whole case is base on that lie.

This Ferguson mess is no different from the Trayvon Martin/Zimmerman case here in Florida. Liberals always jump to conclusions before the facts are established. And more times than not, it is the wrong conclusion. The race baiters and race hustlers overshot their mark and pressured the “I-want-my-15-minutes-of-fame” district attorney in Florida to charge Zimmerman too early and with charges that couldn’t be proven with the evidence at the time, 2nd degree murder. Then when the actual trial came around and the jury found Zimmerman not guilty, liberal heads on TV exploded and the blacks made some noise for a while. but one hasn’t heard much of that case since.

The same will happen here, except I don’t think this experienced Ferguson DA will over charge if the cop is indicted and I think he will wait until the evidence is sufficient enough to charge him. Some of the anger and wind will be out of the protestors’ sails by October when the indictment is predicted to come, if at all. I personally think the jury pool has been poisoned by none other than the democRAT governor Nixon, stating that the cop needs to be “prosecuted vigorously”, before the investigation is even done, or he has been charged or arrested. I think it will be an uphill battle to prove this cop “murdered” this thug. Unless the prosecutor has evidence that the policeman intended to murder the black kid, a jury will exonerate him. Especially if evidence the kid beat on the cop and tried to take his gun from him turns out to be true. I also read the cop believes the kid was high on something (besides pot). That could explain his aggressive behavior towards the cop. This one will take some time to sort through but that won’t satisfy the “we want justice NOW” crowd. Just hang the policeman now, facts be damned!

“So slavery of blacks was from 1641 to 1865. Less than 225 years. And slavery ended 150 years ago.”

The US didnt even exist until 1776 at the earliest so slavery in the USA lasted less than 90 years. Less than 80 if you go from the time the constitution was ratified.

“Since Michael Brown, an 18-year-old black man, was shot six times while raising his hands in a surrender position”

He doesn’t appear to care about the facts, just the opportunity.
