On Aug. 9 in Ferguson, Mo., Darren Wilson, a white police officer, shot and killed Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager. Brown's body was left in the street for four hours.
Brown's killing was a familiar American tragedy in a country where young black men between the ages of 15 and 19 are 21 times more likely to be shot by police officers than young white men of the same age.

So the author equates Palestinians with American street thugs. I don't have a problem with that.
The unfortunate tragedy is that there’s more blacks than whites committing crimes because they think they’re entitled. They’re told by the Democrats that they’re victims and that they should lash out at evil whitey.
I’m long past caring about what the rest of the world thinks. They believed Obama was the Savior of the Universe, too.
“Brown’s killing was a familiar American tragedy in a country where young black men between the ages of 15 and 19 are 21 times more likely to be shot by police officers than young white men of the same age.
Ironic how the author cites a statistic which ably demonstrates how such black male youths are so much more prone to commit lethal felonies than their other peers.
By now even Wolf Blitzer of CNN has been instructed by MO authorities that Brown’s corpse was left in the street until the crime scene was thoroughly searched and all evidence was recorded and secured. That took four hours. It was not a sign of disrespect, as the fevered race baiters in Ferguson publicized it, but a matter of following the law.
If you don’t want to have your body in the street, don’t attack a Missouri cop there.
Could it possibly be that young white men of the same age have real fathers at home who teach their sons to be good citizens and obey the laws, stay in school and get a good education, graduate and get either a college degree or a skillful trade, raise a family and don't steal?..................................nah..........................
That's good advice for anywhere on the planet........................

Exactly. Both countries have many useless troublemakers and PAID THUGS to create unrest, damage and chaos. As well as a government that keeps throwing gasoline on the fire....so to speak.
American stree thugs are worse, becasue they’re here.
So far, at least
What I’m seeing is most think American blacks are oppressed and murdered daily by the evil white man.
Some of these people need to spend a little time walking through any American ghetto. If they manage to make it out alive, they will change their tune about the ‘poor oppressed black man’.
Then spend time in rural America. Black folks in rural America are just working neighbors.
Given the drivel provided the world by our low IQ MSM, what matters what they say?
Brown was a thug.
And he could be the Obamadork’s sun.
Actually, I read that and thought...
the whites are also more likely to be in school in that age group too.
I still think Wilson handled it wrong. He should have called for backup before attempting to arrest Brown. Once he confronted him “feeling like a 5 year old” (eyeroll) it was too late.
You don’t arrest a huge guy by yourself just because you have a gun.
One word: Disappointment. This is some seriously weak rioting. They are just going through the motions.
It’s the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of rioting.
A person who rides a bike is more likely to have a bike crash than someone who doesn’t. Using their logic, bike riders are disproportionately targeted for bike accidents as opposed to those who don’t ride bikes.
You are right.
You shoot his ass. If you do it right, you don’t even need the cuffs.
Bud, the toilets today aren't worthy of the name. They come in designer colors, they're too low, and when you flush 'em they make this little weak almost apologetic sound.
Not a Ferguson. It only comes in white and when you flush it...Bam! Whooosh! That's a man's flush, Bud. A Ferguson says, "I'm a toilet. Sit down and give me your best shot." Oh, if only a Ferguson could speak, the tales it would tell.
According to the FBI website, 27 police officers were feloniously murdered last year, 25 were white, 2 were black. No information was forthcoming about the races of the cop killers.
21 times more likely to be shot? How many times more likely to be caught committing a crime?
If you exist in a criminal thug culture, you are likely to have conflicts with police. Watch the riots and tell me they do not exist in criminal thug culture.
Also, if you confront police instead of cooperate with them, they will feel threatened and you will not be safe.
Brown did not want to be arrested for theft, assault, and drug possession. So he decided to fight.
FURTHERMORE, this is not a collective case. It is an individual case with individual facts. There is no excusing the rioting no matter what.
LAST, yes, the parallel to arab thugs is certainly well made.
Young black men between the ages of 15 and 19 are 21 times more likely to deserve being shot by police officers.
