Thank you. I don’t know why people name him like a magical protective talisman whenever the subject is the negative behavior/characteristics of blacks. It would only take a little googling to find out some home truths about him, and I don’t even mean the adultery or the plagiarism. It’s like another version of “one of my best friends is black”, like people think they have to equivocate before they can speak the truth.

What do they need to care. It will be designated an “Enterprise Zone” (I believe it already is, actually), and millions in the stolen labor-hours of productive Americans will be stolen from their checks to pour into yet another black hole.

My daughter and I are driving to Branson, MO next month - passing St. Louis and going through Springfield, which have both been in the news for violence recently. Oh, joy.

Don’t endanger your daughter and yourself, please. Re-route,
better to go miles out of the way and arrive safe & sound, than the alternative of being car jacked, raped & robbed. Times have changed. . . . .

Going to ask my CCW instructor about using defensive deadly force from inside my vehicle. Seriously, I will not be carjacked & I am not interested in “understanding the rage”.

Just like in The Blues Brothers running the Nazi’s off the bridge! But make several trips to get the late arrivals.

The police should shoot a barrage of paternity tests and work boots at the protesters to end it quickly.


I heard that a shoe store was looted during the rioting, and they took everything except the work boots.

You should be okay. You can bypass downtown St. Louis by taking I-255 South across the Jefferson Barracks bridge. You will also bypass downtown Springfield on Highway 65 to Branson.

You realize this entire Ferguson episode is limited in scope to about a 6 square block area? The LSM would have you believe the entire St. Louis region is in flames. I live in the STL area. The events in Ferguson affected no one outside that tiny immediate area. Life went on and continues to do so...

6 sq blocks?

That’s fence-able...

?Why try to stop them?

Let the morons on the freeway so traffic can black-top the pavement.

Think of the tax-savings.

Thanks - my daughter and I talked it over last night, and we may just take a route that goes through Hannibal, and stop at the Mark Twain museum. :-) Only adds about an hour of driving time to our total trip.
