I was wondering how much of the stuff that was looted was "good stuff."

I'd think that a savvy businessman, who had a pretty good idea of what was coming, could clear out the store of high-quality merchandise and stock the shelves with damaged or low-demand products to clear out his inventory of dead stock and problem merchandise... billing the insurance company once the inevitable riots hit.

But maybe I'm just Machiavellian. And, of course, NOTHING excuses what happened there. Who loots a Family Dollar Store, anyway? And what would Walgreen's have that would justify this?

I was wondering if, maybe, the liquor on the shelves of the looted store might just be full of methanol. The bottles are for “display only”.

Wow, those pictures are stunning. It looks like a war zone.

This is not a nice thing to say, but I’ll say it. No one from outside Ferguson should touch it, to clean it up. Leave it that way and let the people who live there either clean it up or live with what their neighbors have done.

At some point, there has to be some condemnation of violence and destruction from within their own community.

>> “The Missouri church where Michael Brown’s father was baptized over the weekend...” <<

.
New found faith? or just poor writing skills?

I do find it amazing and surprising that the old guy would attend church.

How did the son become a thug?

Can you believe this guy is in total denial that blacks torched his church?

Sadly, yes I can believe exactly that. I've seen this kind of denial, this kind of refusal to face simple facts before...

I’m sure if there were white supremacists running around setting black churches on fire the media would have been all over it.

Just as *I* am certain that the only "white supremacists" within 100 miles of Ferguson, MO did their work not for an organization known as KKK, but organizations known as ABC, CBS, NBC, et al...

Yes, but they know it and are counting on the government to step in with their usual big bags of goodies.

Lee said. "I was in complete disbelief. I didn't think anyone would set a church on fire.

Join the club.

the pastor does not think the arson was part of the fiery violence that erupted elsewhere in the community. The Rev. Carlton Lee told NBC News that he believes Flood Christian Church was targeted because he has repeatedly called for the arrest of Officer Darren Wilson

Bullshite Rev, bullshite.
