Ferguson....

Oh, white guys telling black people how they should live.

Betcha all the women on the board feel relief
/////////////////

Any second either you or another pasty will spout personal responsibility or accountability or boot straps ---- or some other nonsensical bumper sticker
Unless you have a plan to a) bring meaningful jobs back to the inner city or b) be willing to take a strong stand on weapons --- you are just blowing meaningless
white guy air.


So hey, the ball is back in your court -- where will these people go to work? Are you willing to remove weaponry from the neighborhoods or at he very least limit the numbers of weapons manufactured in this country?

I'd be all for limiting the amount of weapons. If we made it a crime for minorities to possess a weapon and enforced it, Gun deaths will go down by 75%. Is 75% a good drop for you or is it unfair to punish the minority that causes the majority of gun deaths?




Are you willing to do that and have a 75% drop in homicides by firearms or would you rather not admit that and act like that's not the real problem with firearm deaths in America.

White people get to have guns but not minorities ?
Reminds me of a story--
......
Guy goes to the Dr and the Dr looks at him and says, "son you have a banana in your ear. " Fellow says. " I can't hear you Doc. I have a banana in my ear"
......
Get it?

Just because they are different topics doesn't mean it doesn't add value to this overall conversation we are having about black people in this country. If there was as much attention on the black on black crime as there is on an issue like what happened in Fergueson the black community would be better off.

this topic isn't actually about black people in this country

[sturg33]

It's the dismissal of the concept of personal responsibility which causes the situation too many black youths find themselves in. So while you continually spew how there is no hope contemplate to yourself how damaging that though in it of itself actually is.

This is a good point

This is a good point

I believe it 100%. There is no reason why anyone can't make something of themselves in this world. Some have it harder than others but everyone has a chance to better themselves by making the right decisions. Our government has convinced the black youth that the odds are so stacked against them that they don't have a chance. What a wonderful message!

There is some truth to that. We were taught to be better than you, to work harder than you, if not, you will be just like the lazy bums you see down the street....going nowhere. Don't let the quota system or give us points on our Apt tests because they are not 100% accurate, I will tell you that.

"This correlates with the eyewitness statements, which said that most of the first barrage of bullets missed Michael Brown, but the kill-shots happened after Michael tried to surrender. There's no defense for that cop. No wonder he's hiding."

So "Black Voices" version says that. Other news sites say the audio ties in with a rushing Brown and the officer hesitating on the kill shot.

My wife and Terry Gross begin sentences with "so"

And no, he is not my brother nor in my family, but he sure act like it. When I preach on here, this is what I preach about.

I don't think the Liberals are going to like it.

And of course my bro Zo brings it:

Actually none of the news sites I read speculate on why the pause. But some analysis I read say it supports the case of brown being fires upon from behind. Which if that happened regardless of if he charged back, the cop should lose his badge. Someone unarmed running away isn't justifiable for deadly force.

So, Mr Stewart is back and he had his comments on it:

and like usual, he nails it

Interesting how when the evidence started going away from Wilson thethe and gilesfan stopped posting as much. Lol.

Really? What other evidence has come out other than more faulty eyewitness testimony?

We have an officer with a busted eye and an autopsy that showed Brown wasn't shot in the bakc.

You want me to just keep posting about the same things?

[zitothebrave]

You'd think the cops would have cooked more evidence. The initial rush wasn't enough.

What evidence is there to support the cops story other than the cops tale and the tale that he told his friends?

Are you going to completely discount that Johnson said Brown rushed the cop?

Common sense and forensics?
