10:30 p.m. Central Time: Fires continue, and while many protestors are still out in Ferguson, Missouri, reporters say the crowds had dwindled a bit. Some protestors are shouting profanity at police and members of the media. One building is engulfed in flames and is destroyed. CNN reports the building is a Little Caesars pizza restaurant.

We had the same thing happen in London a few years back over a similar case, another low life killed by the police and it caused a very serious national crisis.

Prayers for all the innocents out there.

Shoot water at them. Won’t kill them but probably will stop them.

And now for a candid word from "The Nuge" -
 
https://www.facebook.com/tednugent/posts/10152535118862297
 
"Here's the lessons from Ferguson America- Don't let your kids growup to be thugs who think they can steal, assault & attack cops as a way of life & badge of black (dis)honor. Don't preach your racist bull**** "no justice no peace" as blabbered by Obama's racist Czar Al Not So Sharpton & their black klansmen. When a cop tells you to get out of the middle of the street, obey him & don't attack him as brainwashed by the gangsta ***holes you hang with & look up to. It's that simple unless you have no brains, no soul, no sense of decency whatsoever. And dont claim that "black lives matter" when you ignore the millions you abort & slaughter each & every day by other blacks. Those of us with a soul do indeed believe black lives matter, as all lives matter. So quit killin each other you ****** idiots. Drive safely."

What little of the Fox radio broadcast I could stomach before the announcement mentioned that the locals are disqusted by the outsiders who have come and taken over. It truly is outside “community orqanizers” who have put this toqether and the locals know it full well.

From the sounds of it, there is an army of outsiders that is qoinq from business to business, first lootinq and then burninq down buildinqs while police and fire depts are kept away by qunfire. This is not riotinq. This is systematic war beinq waqed on the locals by Holder and Obama’s lifelonq pals. This is “the course” that Obama told them to “stay”.

Ray76 said that Obama spoke as the leader of an invadinq army when he qave his executive amnesty announcement, and now we see his army LITERALLY committinq acts of war aqainst the people of America.

Whoever is supposed to arrest the “President” if he commits war aqainst his own people need to qet out the handcuffs and do what must be done. It is WAY past time.

Soon they’ll live in a moonscape (like those areas of Newark NJ never rebuilt after the riots). The chain stores should simply move elsewhere, leaving another “food desert” where the only businesses are pawn shops, nail salons, and liquor stores...

Nothing could better illustrate the stark divide between black America and everyone else than the different reactions to a shoplifter being shot after physically assaulting a cop.

Applause. Nothing but applause.

I manned the walls for nine hours last night, trying to keep everyone abreast of the crap going down.

Nine cities were burning last night. Nine. This was an organized insurrection.

The Liberal Tet Offensive. It’s the Sixties all over again, but with crappy music.

Yeoman's work last night, Sarge.

Have errands this morning, but will look forward to your contributions as Tet2.Day2 unfolds.

My very first apartment sans roommates was in Trenton. I felt totally safe, thr neighborhood was an old Itslian neighborhood with the best pizza shops. Neighbors looked after each other.

I moved out after my car got stolen, my boyfriend at the time had his truck stolen. My apt was burglarized.

I was then mugged. Fortunately I only lost forty dollars. When I went to fill out a police report, the police officer doing my paperwork who must have been about my dad’s age (at that time) told me to move to the burbs. The neighborhood was slowly dying.

Now the only way I see Trenton, is driving over it via the highway. All this in twenty five years.

Most Americans (and the newcomer “replacement Americans - including Africans) want them to just go away; we will never outlaw abortion as long as this problem persists.

Ferguson was on the same slow path to irrelevance, and this just moved it ahead five spaces. Glad you were OK; while New Jerseyans may be liberal on many topics, on two they are not: taxes and race. My area is filled with people who escaped from Newark when it fell, as well as their descendants; the only reason to go into Newark (besides working there) is to buy drugs and prostitutes.

The only hope for these areas are the masses of Hispanics displacing the blacks.

I don’t buy the peaceful protestors vs outsiders crap they are pushing. Leftists do this all the time - they blame someone else when the riots happen, when they wouldn’t have riots if they didn’t give the thugs cover. They are acting naive, but they know what they are doing.

Don't forget the airport...

I think you're right about how New Jerseyans feel about race, but not taxes. The state wouldn't be tied for #1 in taxes (with Connecticut) if voters weren't liberal about taxes. The property taxes in a safe suburban town in an area far from the problems of Newark, Camden or Trenton are still completely outrageous.

I believe that the whole dark blue northeast is eventually doomed. Rome wasn't burned in a day, and I don't expect to see the final collapse in my lifetime, but eventually all the makers will have left, leaving only the takers.
