The violent protests in Ferguson, Missouri following the shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown only grew more intense over the weekend. As the primarily, but not exclusively, African-American locals continue express dissatisfaction with the state of American law enforcement, some of the nations commentators are examining the societal circumstances which have led these protesters to believe they have so few stakes in the system that they are prepared to take the risks associated with participating in mass violence.
A few political commentators have observed that there is something gravely wrong with our urban centers. They see the violence in Ferguson, which has been welcomed and celebrated by sympathizers in many of Americas great metropolises, as evidence of the breakdown of the social contract.
There’s been an ongoing one sided “race war” going on for quite a while. They should be careful about being “open” about it or the other side might take it seriously and actually fight back.

I say bring it on! I have had enough of this chit from these low information voters!
An epic example of being careless in what you wish for.
Who? Which ones? Where?
They are always trying to recreate the leftist glory days of the 1960’s.
Funny. Black on black murders all over but they go bats*** over a cop shooting one person who assaulted the cop after robbing a store and assaulting the clerk.
Seems the breakdown is on one side here. And that side refuses to acknowledge such, and that is 99 percent of the problem.
And that’s exactly what they want.
As I noted in another thread. Time to get more 5.56 mm, 7.62 mm and 30-06 rounds. You never have enough when the $hit hits the fan....
St Louis County Executive Dooley is a Democrat. Governor Nixon is a Democrat. President 0bama is a Democrat.
It’s LBJ race riots in 1968 Detroit all over again...
A possible cut off their EBT cards wouldn't be a stake in the system?
Columnists?
Fifth Columnists, by chance?
Full of more than a few fifths as they spin lies.
My recollection is that Thomas Sowell said just that.
That the only thing worse than a one sided race war is a two sided one. Where one side disproportionately outnumbers and outguns the other.
Their definition of a stake in the game is more free stuff - you know, the stuff the rest of us work for to get. And go to school to get the education to be able to make enough to get that stuff. And so forth...
Don’t forget Watts.. Or Detroit.
Before Rodney King, gangs and the black panthers were there.
Every time they riot and loot, they set themselves back 5-10yrs, or worse. This won’t go or end well for any of them.

Can you imagine???
Now that would be fireworks!
there used to be a whole lot of white robes in the closets of Missouri
It’s more like an insurrection.
Has anyone seen the media show the many BLACK Nationalist flags being waved during the riots and so-called protestors??
These feral blacks ARE NOT interested in living under Anglo Saxon laws and conservatism WILL NOT change their beliefs.
We have a black run America—seriously—where nearly every issue is to be modified to fit black ‘feelings’-—Freedom of association is the only right that matters: boiled down, it means you have the right to discriminate.
Anyone offended??? Tough...
is the GOP STILL stupid enough to try and reach voters who will NEVER vote for a party that will not kow-tow to the gibtz me dat crowd.
Let Ferguson burn...
