The Post-Ferguson World: Rules for White People

One day after the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, officials from the Justice Department's Community Relations Service arrived in Ferguson. They were there to investigate potential civil rights violations, but the National Review reports that they also used this time to hold townhall-style meetings with residents and to question and educate them on subjects like white privilege and racism. Audrey Watson, a community resident, said federal officials organized attendees int ...

I realize that's a question with a wide range of answers possible. This town seems to have a lot of ghetto-y, trashy type people who always want to settle any type of dispute, no matter how minor, by fighting. Offering someone to "square up" and beat the crap out of them. That's really going to prove or accomplish something? Seems to me all it proves or accomplishes is that people are too ignorant or lazy to discuss facts in a reasonable manner, mu ...

I have been sat here watching Nancy Grace. A 10-year-old boy stabbed and killed his 12-year-old best friend, the 12-year-old was apparently trying to break up a fight or something when it happened and was defending his friend. Now it is learned that the 10-year-old has some sort of psychiatric problem where he "acts out" and has apparently been on all kinds of medications for it, etc., etc. I was fortunate to raise kids with no ADHD or other problems but I find it so alarming to see so many c ...

I am white. I have spent years studying what it means to be white in a society that proclaims race meaningless, yet is deeply divided by race. This is what I have learned: Any white person living in the United States will develop opinions about race simply by swimming in the water of our culture. But mainstream sources -- schools, textbooks, media -- don't provide us with the multiple perspectives we need. Yes, we will develop strong emotionally laden opinions, but they will not be informed ...

polling 25-30 percentage points behind Clinton. Quite the convention bump! It's over people! Trump has finally pounded the final nail into his own coffin. He has no one to blame but himself. Even republicans are crossing over in big numbers and encouraging others to do so. ...

White people - we're ALWAYS the problem, especially when a liberal white politician wants to nail down minority votes. I tell you, I'm sick of it and I wouldn't vote for Hillary Clinton for a million dollars. She promises nothing more than a continuance of Obama's miserable policies and behaviors that have set race relations in this nation back by at least 100 years. Maybe black people need to listen better when white people speak... ...about personal resp ...

Mexican flag. At issue is the punishment by the school, the Achieve Early College High School in McAllen, Texas, of Brenda Brinsdon, then a 15-year-old sophomore, several years ago. She declined to pledge allegiance to the Mexican flag when her Spanish instructor demanded it of her. Former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo writes in his “In Mortal Danger” how illegal aliens are demanding the rights granted to citizens. Then she was removed from the classroom and subjected to individual ins ...

Autopsy by Baden states six shots, none in back. Head shots could be from the stance of surrender or MB charging officer. Still questions. Toxicology will lend a lot to credibility of charging and out of control actions. Wish officer version would be publicized; however, they may be holding it fearing it wil incite more violence, waiting for toxicology and autopsy to back it up. Fear community will not accept either way. Six shots is a lot of shots. Still f ...

I am hoping that there will be PEACEFUL protests if some don't agree with the grand jury's decision concerning the Michael Brown case. This evening protestors are not too far from my home and the constant whirring of helicopters makes it hard for me to concentrate on my work. It is definitely a fact that no man is an island and one man's actions can reverberate across the country and the world and affect people who had absolutely NOTHING to do with what happened that ...

With the Grand Jury about to issue a decision on whether or not to go forward with criminal charges against Officer Wilson, and in preparation of potential riots based on that decision, does anyone think it would be a good idea for President Obama and Attorney General Holder to be in Ferguson at the time of the decision and stand arm in arm with the governor of Missouri, the mayor of Ferguson, the police chief, the county supervisor and anyone else of power to show strength and unity with w ...

According to protesters who erupted in violence after a grand jury declined to indict Officer Darren Wilson in the shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., this was the case of a white policeman shooting an unarmed black teenager with his hands in the air in a community plagued by racial tension. That's an account promoted by many in the mainstream media as well. But here are several facts about the case that are harder to find:1. Surveillance video showed that shortly before the ...

The Ferguson police department must be stopped. They are making the situation worse. Why haven't they investigated the Michael Brown shooting? Why haven't they released any information? Why haven't they interviewed the witnesses? Why did they leave the body in the street for so long? Why did the Mayor take over 2 days to address the family. It seems by their silence that they are condoning repeatedly shooting that man. Ther ...

Maybe an effort to distance himself from the "bad" cops. Maybe helps Ferguson in their civil rights law suit. And, IMO, (and only my opinion) they might just indict Darren Wilson after all. Frankly, if there is any culpability at all, it makes sense to save the city and hang Wilson out, guilty or not. Personally, I think he is guilty, but that really doesn't matter. http://preview.msn.com/en-us/video/news/ferguson-police-chief-apologizes/vi-BB5J85K ...

Trickle down economics did not work and will not work. There are those still purporting its value. These people are some of the same that are just fine with the divisions in socioeconomic classes in America.

http://www.vox.com/2014/11/25/7279623/ferguson-grand-jury-evidence Here are 11 outtakes from the photographic evidence, Wilson's initial interview with a detective, and testimony to the grand jury, that give an insight into Wilson's story and his portrayal of Brown on the stand. 1) Wilson compared Brown to WWE wrestler Hulk Hogan 2) Despite the Hulk Hogan vs. a five-year-old comparison, Wilson isn't much shorter than Brown, who was 6 feet 5 inches and 289 pounds 3) ...

Some of them I have seen before on right wing websites. The concerning thing is these kinds of disgusting racist/homophobic beliefs and actions are not isolated to the police and courts in Ferguson, Mo. Some racist emails were uncovered in SF. I have personal contacts in the LAPD and can only imagine what is in their server! Racism has pretty much taboo over the last 50 years and kept underground, spoken in private hush hush voices. The internet and anonymity has flushed ...

At least some of the protesters who looted, rioted, burned buildings and overturned police cars in Ferguson, Missouri, last year were promised payment of up to $5,000 per month to join the protests. However, when the Missourians Organizing for Reform and Empowerment (MORE), the successor group to the now-bankrupt St. Louis branch of ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now), stiffed the protesters, they launched a sit-in protest at the headquarters of MORE and created a Tw ...

The police officer who killed MB did not stop MB due to being a robbery suspect. He clearly, repeatedly, stated that this cop did not know there was a robbery, he only stopped him because he was walking down the street. Chief states his info is from St. Louis County Police Dept interview with police officer who did the shooting. Sort of pulls the wind from the sails of that "big mean, strong arm robber," and feeling threatened because he is such a criminal. Then the med ...

A gathering of black congressional staffers and other Capitol employees stood silently on the House steps Thursday and raised their hands in the air to protest the killing of unarmed black men by police. The demonstration was organized by the Congressional Black Associates and other groups representing minority employees of Congress to show support for protests around the country following the killing of Garner and 18-year-old Michael Brown, whose death in Ferguson, Missouri, inspire ...

"Tensions were building in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson, Missouri, on Monday as the community girded for a decision by a grand jury over whether to indict the white police officer who fatally shot an unarmed black teen in August. The shooting sparked weeks of unrest and ongoing demonstrations, and some groups have threatened widespread protests if Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson is not charged with a crime in the death of Michael Brown, 18."
