This too, like the Trayvon Martin issue will die down once the media goes home. The Street Rats will go back to doing what they do, the good Rev Al and Jesse will find another “cause” to go hustle and the robbing, killing, burning and looting will subside, at least until a grand jury’s decision is announced.

The problem in not just in Ferguson, so why all the big fuss when you have Chicago to deal with? Blacks will still be killing each other and what will we hear?..........crickets. Some black shoots a white cop and what do we hear?.........more crickets.

Can you believe there are sixty (60) separate police departments in the County of St Louis? Perhaps a little consolidation might standardize administration and certainly would reduce overhead costs that could be used for more and better trained Policemen. Of course to do that would involve fights with the entrenched bureaucrats and the Unions.

Seriously, if these people would get up off their butts and take advantage of the education and employment opportunities available to them, they would be a lot better off. Give up the thug life, abstain from drugs and alcohol and stop producing new babies every year which you can’t afford to raise.

Trouble is, they want free stuff paid for by others. And if the government can’t or won’t provide it, they’ll just loot a store for it.

Then there is the glaring lack of African-American political representation: Ferguson is a city that is two-thirds black, run by a white mayor and nearly all-white city council.

And then there is the 6% black voter participation in the local elections. What they should do is vote in some corrupt black politicians picked by Sharpton, then reap the spoils as the remaining whites leave. It will leave their future generations in a hellhole, but that's their problem.

Next thing is to replace the white police force with a sympathetic black police force that will allow young black thugs to rob convenience stores, use drugs, and walk in the middle of the street holding up traffic.

“Ferguson Wrestles With What to Do Next”

Learn to get the facts before going ape rather than acting on street rumors.

What to do Next:

Get a few thousand copies of the book “A Framework for Understanding Poverty” by Ruby Payne (race unknown).

Distribute the book and a few hundred social workers (don’t hate on me, this could actually work-some people can’t read).

Show the good folks of Ferguson that they are living every stereotype. Show them how they ARE and what they could become. In many cases, there is generational (happy 18th birthday baby. Let’s get you signed up for some government assistance!) poverty, a way of life.

Why can’t Al Sharkton help bring “his” people up, instead of perpetrating the stereotype? In my opinion, Sharkton and Jackson keep their people down, because pandering to the masses, the uninformed masses, keeps them rich. Plain and simple.

Make Sharkton and Jackson irrelevant. Get them off the stage. Ferguson needs to fix itself. But first, Ferguson needs to understand the problem.

Organize a group. One by one get identifiable protesters from videos, execute them and put the bodies where police can find them. Write a letter of apology to the world. Ask businesses to reinvest in the community.

They welcomed the out of state, out of “work” Occutards. Let them deal with their decision. Someone paid good money to send the rent-a-mob there.

In Texas the fed gov has been building gorgeous fancy two story mansions for the “poor” to live in.

Sunnyside residents sing praises of South Acres Ranch

HOUSTON Next month a housing development in the Sunnyside community of Houston will celebrate its second phase of construction and its potential impact in one of the city s oldest neighborhoods.

South Acres Ranch is marketed as a high-end housing development for low-income Houstonians. The gated community of 128 four-bedroom, single-family homes is located on Scott Street, south of Airport Road. It features amenities unusual to Sunnyside: a community center, six playgrounds, a multi-level pool, ponds and fountains at the gated entries, and a covered bus depot area for school children waiting for the bus.

I like the openness, said Linda Pepper, 62, of her newly rented home that costs her less than $1,000 a month. {If you cannot pay, no problem, you are not kicked out}

Affordable housing that s very nice, said the recent St. Louis transplant. I never, never expected to find a rental property like this. Never in all my life.

Financed partly with federal tax credits, South Acres Ranch provides single-family homes, without a government-subsidized look or feel to the property.

Resident Kina Jefferson says this will be home until she can buy a house of her own.

It feels like a sense of a family home in a neighborhood. I just love the feel, she said.

It brings a great deal of excitement when they move in, said developer Barry Kahn of Hettig-Kahn Development Corp. And having an opportunity of bringing their friends over and saying this is my house.

It s given the bank an opportunity to showcase what we call investing for good, said John Yochum of Capitol One Bank.

The good includes quality and secure housing for families making roughly $40,000 or less a year. Streets in the gated complex were purposely named after noted community leaders. The homes are across from Houston s Kipp Academy. And South Acres Ranch management offers onsite tutoring for children and financial literacy classes for adults at the community center.

Hettig-Kahn developed the property, along with Capital One Bank, the City of Houston Housing and Community Development Department and the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs.
