A Look at the Destruction After Ferguson Riots
ABC ^ | NOV. 25 1014 | RHEANA MURRAY Rheana Murray More from Rheana ยป Digital Reporter

As the sun came up this morning in Ferguson, Missouri, it revealed destroyed businesses, burnt cars and wreckage from the riots that erupted after a grand jury cleared Officer Darren Wilson in the shooting death of teenager Michael Brown.

A row of scorched cars covered in soot sat in a parking lot in nearby Dellwood, a manager surveyed the burned down building of the gas station where she works, and business owners assessed smashed windows and rubble from the fires.

In all the years I have never seen such a divisive president nor democrat party. The rapid decline started with Bill Clinton.

This is the party that booed God at their last national convention. Not just once but three times. Of course destruction is the end result of that, sooner or later. Usually sooner.

It's a scourge to the people who had their stores looted and burned in Ferguson over the last 4 months.

Oh no doubt. So why not shoot shoplifters on sight too? We don't have shoot on sight powers in this country. I wouldn't want us to. If someone is looting or setting fire to something then arrest them, indict them, try them, and jail them.

Things like this never happen in White America. It would never happen in my small town.
We still keep doors unlocked here and I can park my bikes outside without worrying about theft.

I question your judgment.

Why don't you just advertise in the 300-pound Black Retarded Thugs' Daily News?

They'll be right over...

Why?

No thugs in my hood’.

Some places like mine still exist in America.

Which is why I don’t think much of big cities.

Guess who’s going to pay for the damage?

You and me. The feds are going to shower Ferguson with money to rebuild.

And what lesson will be learned?

“You and me. The feds are going to shower Ferguson with money to rebuild.”

Shower with money yes. Rebuild no. Those businesses will take the insurance money and LEAVE. Just like in LA where those riots were. There are still vacant lots there to this day. That will happen here. Nothing will be rebuilt. No one will want to build. No one wanted to in LA. Do you blame them?

It backfired on Barack. His most memorable contribution was a split screen of him talking about the majority of peaceful protesters and a bunch of rioters overturning a car. A powerful metaphor for his presidency, really.

No.

I’ve been to Watts.

Believe me, it looks like the dark side of the moon.

Seeing is believing. Ferguson will NEVER recover.

So calling out the national guard was all for show. Just let these people make fools of themselves and burn the town down.
Yep yep yep yep yep yep yep.

Jungle tribal mentality is hard to breed out of some ...

Let's not forget that that mentality was bred INTO blacks by white liberals. They created the feral urban race by first destroying the real black community.

When have we ever shot looters and arsonists?

Many times in U.S. History, just not since 1964, when "Black Skin Privilege" began.

Just google images of notable historical U.S. riots (generally, no need to mention "black) and the most ubiquitous images will be of the National Guard with loaded weapons looking for looters to shoot, irrespective of race, color, religion, sexual orientation or national origin.
It was not only tolerated, but expected of a rational, non-suicidal society.

Amen! That cannot be emphasized , nor said enough.

They, [White Liberals] have deprived them of the joy of living. They have deprived them of the pride of owing things, the pride of accomplishment[s], the self satisfaction of working for and earning something, their self respect. And as a side issue, they have done the same thing for or to the reservation Indians.

South Central Los Angeles .... Earvin "Magic" Johnson's investment company started a revival in that area.

I think you forgot your sarc tag. I'm from South Central, and have never seen any economic revival there.

"...I also believe that a confrontation between black "protestors" and armed whites is exactly what black supremists like Obama and Holder would like to see and use as justification for bringing a heavy government boot down on us..."



You are 100% absolutely correct.

White citizens should be very careful as they contemplate preserving their homes as compared with fleeing elsewhere.
It is a tough decision indeed...further magnified as many homeowner insurance policies do not cover damage caused by "warfare, riot, and insurrection" which could potentially send families into lifelong destitution.
My heart goes out to the decent, honorable, and law-abiding people caught in nightmarish riots/protests occurring (and planned) throughout the nation.

Stay safe, FRiends.

Black Skin Privilege...

What 'black skin privilege'? I've never gotten a break in life because I'm black.

'Course, I'm a conservative - I'm married with children - I'm a business owner - I obey the law and play by the rules - I speak the mother tongue - and I vote Republican.

You know......I'm feeling just a bit discriminated against!

They don't have to be in your town.
They get buses and travel vouchers from Obama, Holder, Jesse Jackass and Al Sharpie.

Don't you ever read or watch the news any more?
