The National Guard rolled in to protect a status quo. But racism set a status quo of inequality long before Michael Brown died.
The National Guard will essentially protect the legal looting of black people much as it was protected when Missouri became the last slave state admitted to the union.
The symptoms of structural racism stain America everywhere, but its execution is particularly perverse in places like Ferguson. Its not just that black drivers are stopped more often for alleged crimes than white drivers, despite the Missouri attorney generals report that white people break the law more often. Its not that Fergusons police force is 94% white in a town thats two-thirds black. Its not even, as Jeff Smith wrote in Mondays New York Times, that black peoplemany unemployed do more to fund local government than relatively affluent whites by way of those stops and the subsequent fines.
The real perversion of justice by way of modern American racism is that black people in Ferguson like black people in the greater St Louis metropolitan area and nationallyare marginalized economically and physically from day one. That is the real looting of Ferguson.
We are consistently twice as likely to be unemployed and in and near St Louis, 47 percent of the metro areas African-American men between ages 16 and 24 are unemployed. Our men are more likely to be convicted and our women are more likely to be evicted. We are more likely to be victims of predatory loans. Our children are twice as likely to have asthma (even before you teargas them). Our babies are twice as likely to die before the age of oneand their mothers are three or four times more likely to die as a result of bearing them....

Bush’s fault I suppose.
The 7 to 10 trillion dollars spent on the “great society” hasn’t turned out to be a very wise investment.
I wonder if that encounter is on video?
But it won't sit well with those advocates of victimhood.
No one mentions people who goof off throughout years of free education, refuse to learn anything in the way of job skills, but are too good to do the jobs they qualify for.
keep your predatory loan protection with you always......just say no. But, it's predatory, so you really can't stop it.
“... and show some self-discipline and initiative on solving their problem themselves, perhaps starting with lowering a 72% illegitimacy rate.”
And a nearly 50% illiteracy rate, higher yet if you only count black males.
When a culture accepts that, even knowing that it makes them unemployable, it’s a culture problem that only they can fix.
You can’t buy an education, you can pay for one but that has already been done. You can’t buy jobs for the illiterate.
The only thing left that society can do to help them is to do nothing for them. Work or starve, change your culture or you will shiver in the dark, cold and hungry.
Pull the police and national Guard out, establish a perimeter around Ferguson, and let them run their city the way they see fit
...my father, who disliked blacks since some childhood incidents, always said ‘give them their own state’...I thought that was nonsense, but not any more...
...what state shall we give them to run into the ground, and let them clean up themselves? My father said Mississippi, his WWII army maneuvers hellhole, but I don’t know...maybe just a terrritory, rather than a state...at any rate, it is clear that the races mixing and living in relative harmony just ain’t going to happen...
Maybe this racist can write some drivel about how many officers are killed by black youts per year? Uses the term execution to incite more violence.
Pray America wakes up
This town, depending on where you are getting your numbers, is between 52 and 64% black.
Fox News this morning interviewed their former Mayor who was white.
Can’t be too racist of the majority voted for him. Either that or most won’t get off the couch to go vote.
Here’s Larry Elder’s take on one liberal lie... I wish someone would send Elder’s this drivil by Steven W. Thrasher

“I hear people talk about how the Ferguson Police Department does not represent the city. So what? Are you saying that because the city has a certain racial composition you therefore cant represent the people? If thats the argument, the logical extension is Obama should never be president because black people are just thirteen percent of the country. Thats ridiculous...”
And Jason Riley:
“The real difficulty is not getting shot by other black people if you are a young black man in these neighborhoods Cops are not the problem. Cops are not producing these black bodies in the morgues every week-end in Chicago, New York and Detroit and so forth.”
I saw someone the other day post “Uyghur, please!”
Seriously, do they NEVER examine their culture to see why it promotes an 80% bastardity rate, 50% of the violent crimes with 12% of the population, and absolutely no work ethic?
...the Missouri attorney generals report that white people break the law more often.
I’m a white person and have been recently convicted twice for breaking the law. Talking on a cell phone while driving in California. The problem with statistical data is that garbage in gives you garbage out.
Obama has proven he has no concept of how to handle the situation, because in fact he refuses to recognize the real problem.
The price of creating a dependent class is the destruction of family and community.
This Godless culture has no sense of right or wrong.
Until God is back in our lives and Fathers are back in their homes and the private sector is free to create real jobs, there is no environment for meaningful education and self-sufficiency.
So we’ll go all Somalia on them ....
LBJ and the democraps.
They are angry that Muslims are competing for that spot and are trying to get back at #1.
That out on YouTube somewhere?
If not, it should be.
