FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) -- A year ago, Ferguson, Missouri, was a mostly quiet working-class suburban town. The uneasy relationship between its growing black population and its mostly white police force barely registered in local headlines.
Everything changed on Aug. 9, 2014, when a white police officer named Darren Wilson shot and killed Michael Brown, an unarmed black 18-year-old. The street confrontation on that sultry day launched the "Black Lives Matter" movement.

“an unarmed black 18-year-old.”
Drink!
A 300# man bum-rushing you is a danger to life and limb, period.
Assuming they survive the trip...
More like a "centralization" center for government race card bribe grants that will focus the funds to the pockets with the biggest cards. Also lots of nepotism jobs and paychecks for coming in every two weeks.
Ferguson = a mini-Detroit west of the Mississippi

289# per the autopsy. So when I said 300# earlier, I was off, but not by much.

Memphis has much earlier claim on that latter title.
IMO it was proven that the white guy did everything right, the black guy did everything wrong along with the rest of the black community. The result is that blacks get rewarded with more council members, more (less competent) black police, and the city will be on a faster track to MORE crime and more liberalism. That’s justice in Bizarro America.
They will be. The Starbuck's there will be selling 40's of malt liquor as well.
But, will it become the 21st Century Liberal Government equivalent of the 1930s Theresienstadt (Nothing but good things happening here!)?
If you’ve shat in an area so much that even QuikTrip don’t wanna take a run at it anymore, how in the hell will a “center” for employment opportunities do anything at all?
Is this where the drug kingpins can go out and find their street hustlers? A Crew-Hookup center where a crew can find a good wheel man, a gat rider or a lookout?
Them WON’T be just sugar packets in that condiments stand.
Things go better with coke!
They will HAVE to hire from the LOCALS no one else would go to work there, they will be robbed at gun point every other day!!!!!!
The ghettoes here are full of places like the “empowerment” center: decent buildings that used to house real businesses, like banks and retail stores. The companies just threw the keys at the race-baiters and took off for the suburbs.
Well, right sentiment. Probably the wrong product though. My guess would be “sugar CRYSTALs” in packet form. The little blue (the good kind) crystals?
For the better or not? Comments seem to give mixed results.
Yeah, it changed. Ferguson went from a St. Louis shanty suburb to Mogadishu. This is what “room to destroy” looks like.
Sure it’s changed you don’t have stupid kids charging cops.
Could become a mecca for white hipsters who want to absolve themselves of white guilt.
A few muggings and that crowd will disappear...
If the “empowerment center” is anything like the ones around here, no one will be inside using the “services”.and the parking lot will be full of illegal aliens looking for day-labor jobs.
