Consider what Brown’s life would have been like had he not had that confrontation with Officer Wilson that August day. Brown with a high school diploma, but no skills and a huge attitude would likely never held a steady job and probably would have lived on welfare. He may have sired one or more illegitimate children with baby mommas, but would never have been a father to them. His life would revolve around drugs, sex and petit crime. Eventually he may have been prosecuted and spent time in jail. If Black lives matter his wouldn’t have amounted to much. The race hustlers would done nothing to turn his life around anymore than they have helped thousands of other young Blacks just like Brown.

But Michael Brown will always be fondly remembered as the Gentle Giant.

My view? The Gentle Giant was a filthy,worthless parasite and punk who,had he not died when he did,would have wound up on death row by his 25th birthday,very probably because he murdered a cop (which he almost succeeded in doing moments before his death).

Still more discussion of Saint Michael of Ferguson.

Despite efforts to debunk the worshippers, substantial numbers of Americans are absolutely determined to promote his canonization.

I have a lot of respect for Jesse Lee Peterson.

He tries to become a positive force for young Black men in his community. He makes a difference in their lives.

It is sad, that this is all that many of them really need, a man there even if an adoptive uncle of sorts to give them good council, keep them busy and out of trouble.

What is unfortunate, is that people in the Black communities are convinced that they have problems nobody else goes through.

“Oh me oh my, my dad isn’t here and the White man did this to us...” On and on it goes, supported by older people who never took any responsibility and can’t let the kid in on that. So they blame the easy patsy for all their problems on Whites or come other boogie man.

White kids are the victims of divorce too. Sometimes they lose both parents early in their lives. Losing a family at three can destroy the primary linkage to relationships for a lifetime. These are very important years for a kid. They will mourn the loss of their parents for years, even decades after the fact.

How are you supposed to develop a relationship to people who may leave? How does this kid process the desire to see his/her parents get back together five years later, not realizing at least one of them is already remarried with replacement kids?

If these kids are lucky, they may see their mom every few months, and their dad once every two or three years. The unlucky ones never see them again. Somehow they survive.

The media loves to play the blame game right along with minorities. It thereby fails them and society by enabling them to do all manner of evil, as if it is justified.

The victims of these enabled kids, are then justified to do things too because something negative happened to them.

Ultimately that’s what “Black Lives Matter” is all about. Blame Whitey because no Black person is capable of taking owner ship of what they and the other members of their race are doing to each other.

Jessie tries to unravel this one young man at a time. He deserves kudos and support.

Nice to see Jesse Peterson again.

I remember him from the March for Justice on Oct. 31, 1998.

Clinton was impeached 7 weeks later.

This backfired in MSM’s and the race industry’s faces. Some of us knew that’s where it was going from nearly the beginning. Wilson never did a damn thing wrong or illegal in this incident. Same in the Zimmerman case.

This is much like what is happening with MSN/politicians right now. It’s detonated in their faces.

Very predictable.

In 1999, when Michael was no more than three, his parents separated.

Boys learn how to be men from their fathers, and when teenage rage is in full force, they need the example their fathers set to keep themselves in line. Without fathers, we've had entire generations of angry, frustrated boys in the bodies of grown men, with predictable results.
