What do y'all think about the riots in Ferguson?

Posted on 11/26/2014 10:28:50 AM PST by Jim Robinson

What do y'all think about the riots in Ferguson? Rocks, bottles, bricks, Molotov cocktails thrown. Stores looted and burned. Private property destroyed. Cars burned. Churches burned. Smoke, tear gas. Gunfire, including from automatic (assault) rifles. Looked and sounded like a war zone.

Dang. Almost as bad as those tea party rallies the DHS has been warning us about.

Looters should be shot.

Amen! I'll go even further and add that, IMHO, anyone blocking traffic should likewise be shot on sight. Crush communism in all forms by any means necessary!

People should defend their homes and businesses with force.

Extremely frustrating......to see the ones in power enable this type of behavior for votes.

I think law enforcement blew it.

The court house and police department are in perfect shape, yet dozens of businesses were looted/torched. This after previous looting/riots months prior, and the fact LE was warned multiple times, and they actually in place, set up, and totally ready/prepared.

They just played with the rioters IMO.

Rubber bullets would have put this to bed in record time. Rubber bullets are no joke and they will ruin your your entire week, and has a tenancy to quickly remove the fight from people.

It’s almost seemed like a setup, as if the store owners were all given the opportunity to max out their insurance policies to cover their stores and stock...

Who knows, but it certainly was not handled correctly.

* Wait the Ferguson protests are VIOLENT? I never heard this on the news!!!!! They said they are so peaceful and just like MLK fighting for civil rights.....I thought it was those nasty Tea Partiers who were violent. That’s what the news said. So it must be true! /s *

So when does the IRS go after the “protesters”?

Do you think the looters will report their stolen items on their tax returns as income?

Que bono? Predictable manipulation of low-information tribalist thugs by the Communist thugs in the press, the government, and the Black Grievance Industry.

Rush just gave out info about this lady on his show. There is a GoFundMe site set up to allow people to donate to her and help her rebuild her business.

I hear that Obama was going to show up personally, but that they wouldn’t let him bring his Molotov cocktails onboard Air Force One. :O

I’m sick and tired of rioting, looting and arson committed by criminals who are treated with kid gloves by politicians.

I think that it would be a good place to use the doctrine of vicarious liability against the Obama-Holder demagogues, the Sharpton race-grievance industry, the MSM employees and others of their ilk as the doctrine has been used against white supremacists.

Make the Obama-Holder demagogues, the Sharpton race-grievance industry, the MSM employees and others of their ilk pay for the damage they caused. Sue them.

I am no lawyer as you will soon discern; but..

Traditional principles of vicarious liability include

Though associated with criminal law, these theories can be used to attribute fault to persons not directly related to an act that harmed a victim.

It must be proved that the others 'provided substantial assistance or encouragement' to those who did harm the victim.

In the SPLC suit against Tom Metzger and WAR the skinheads were not members of Metzger's WAR. But Metzger's rantings had influence over the mindless skinheads due to his reputation in the white supremacy movement

Tom Metzger recruited 16-year-old Mazzella and schooled him in the world of racist violence. Mazzella was sent to Portland to join up with and train the East Side White Pride [skinheads]. Members of that group later brutally murdered an innocent black man.

How is that any different that being "recruited" in college or by progressive ideologues?

The aiding and abetting theory fits because

Lawyers can invoke the aiding and abetting theory with relative ease. Invoking the aiding and abetting assumes two independent actors.

To prove an aiding and abetting claim

Civil conspiracy was also used and proved against the Metzgers because he had contacted the East Side White Pride skinheads and after the murder and their arrest one skinhead called Metzger from jail. Here civil conspiracy might be proved by any contacts between the criminals and Sharpton, Holder, Obama, et al.

Obviously I am not a lawyer and this is a kind of an outline of information available on the Internet. Why can't it be used against the "progressives" and racists of all colors?

I’m having trouble discerning whether your remark is a micro-aggression or a macro-aggression.

What's wrong with medi-aggression?

Aw hell, Ferguson is still safer than any rural church parking lot on a Sunday morning with a bunch "bitter clingers" with their Bibles and guns.
