Looters rule the streets while cars and businesses burn. Criminals repudiate with violence our American values, our justice system, and our sense of decency and decorum. Weak, pathetic politicians spur the criminals on with tacit approval, if not outright inflammatory suggestions. President Obama said in one sentence that we are a nation of laws, and then in a second sentence suggested that people were angry, and their reaction was understandable. How’s that, Mr. Obama? If the process was just, then the outcome was just. Why are people understandably angry at a just outcome? Does that understandable anger permit lawlessness?

Its redistributing the wealth!
The anarchy and lawlessness is by design.
In the Ferguson riots, there’s method to the madness.
Angry is one thing.
Irrational criminal behavior is another.
Dear Leader really showed his colors last night. He was visibly angry the Grand Jury didn’t do what he and Holder told them to do.
Would this be said of a non-protestor (current victim of store destruction, car burning, family threatening, recipient of beating)?
I wonder if the racist white citizens from “To Kill A Mockingbird” would have burned up their own white neighborhoods if Tom Robinson was found not guilty.
Gotta git me some likker and TVs for justice
No, it is not.
Interesting, these Dems weren’t so understanding of the Bundy’s and their protest against the govt.
Blacks kill blacks every day and there is not a peep pout of these race hustlers.
Where are the riots for the thousands of blacks killed by blacks every year?

In watching the news this past week, I came to the same conclusion. The fuel is out there, awaiting a spark. Any kind of spark. It doesn't matter what is logical and correct, it will be subverted to create more sparks to fan the flames. It seems to be madness to many of us, but not to the designers.
