Across the country, Ferguson protests were allowed to get out of control, stopping traffic, destroying public events, making people feel unsafe about going into cities. How about we start that blame at the very first protests, when those who swarmed onto highways and into areas they didn't have permits to gather in weren't arrested and stiffly fined?

And how about the media stopping their fake even-handed reporting? Those who were shot by the police weren't gunned down for just walking down the street. They were all defying police authority when they died. We can be sorry they died, but put it on the minority community to learn that death is a possible outcome of breaking laws and ignoring police.

Of course, get the bad cops off the street. Improve community policing....which won't happen if police have to spend so much time and resources babysitting out of control mobs. But don't let the out-of-control elements in some black communities blame anyone but themselves for the sorry state their neighborhoods are in.

grrr.....end of rant.

Your ‘rant’ makes perfect sense.
