Ferguson As America: "There Is A Brewing Problem... And It's Extremely Dangerous"
Submitted by Martin Armstrong of Armstrong Economics,
Riots are have erupted with hundreds of protesters gathering at a suburban St. Louis police station on Monday demanding murder charges against an officer who shot to death an unarmed black teenager over the weekend. Looting just went nuts like the ’60s. While this is being painted as a race issue, there is yet another issue that is not being addressed – that is the militarization of the civil police forces around the country.
Ever since 911, there has been a trend moving toward much harsher local police. Here is a photo of how the Boston Police have militarized to the point it looks like war against the people. Even small towns are geared up for war.
The small town of Medford, Oregon with a population of 76,462 has spent millions of dollars to militarize their police. They have their own Swat Teams, yet no incident in history of some major shooting of such a nature to warrant a Swat Team. The entire reason where there was the Second Amendment was to eliminate this very threat of standing armies. We are seeing the abuse of force at every level. Medford Police bought a new vehicle that some say could survive a so-called the apocalypse. They used their Swat Team to go after a mere carjacker.
Medford, New Jersey with a population of just 23,033 also has a Swat Team. They rushed in and held two white kids on the ground at gun-point for shooting potatoes into a lake setting hair spray as the propellant.
The whole thing about standing armies has been their historical use out of boredom. It is a shame to pay for something and then not use it. Police use to be friendly as shown in Normal Rockwell’s classic painting. Sure there are a few good souls still left. But the attitudes have shifted to being just mean and nasty as they look at the civilian population as evil.
This is a problem that is brewing and is extremely dangerous to say the least. Examples of police abuse are all over the internet. There has been a loss of respect for the people and there seems to be no way to reverse this process.
They sprayed protesters in the eyes during Occupy Wall Street movements everywhere. The conduct has been outrageous. This killing of this black teen is not simply racism. The problems are much deeper. Claiming this is just racism deflects the entire issue and makes it simply black-v-white. This is something far more serious for it is impacting our entire society.
The protests over land was yet another example. The police showed up with weapons and told the people they would shoot to kill. The police are being transformed from protecting the public into protecting government from the public. Most do not even see what transformation they have gone through.

Michael Snyder has a different persepctive...
Even though the economy has somewhat stabilized (at least for the moment), levels of anger and frustration have continued to grow in this country. We have been taught to hate one another and to blame one another for our problems, and so now the U.S. is more divided than at any other point in recent memory. For much more on this, please see my previous article entitled "America The Divided: Everyone Knows We Have Problems But There Is Very Little Agreement On Solutions".
We live at a time when things are so tense that even a small spark can light an absolutely huge fire. America has become a tinderbox. Next time it might not be a racially-charged shooting. Next time it might be an Ebola outbreak that sparks looting and panic. Or it might be some sort of financial collapse. We just don't know.
But what we do know is that there are lots and lots of people that are willing to riot and loot and commit unspeakable crimes given the right circumstances.
Decades of social decay have gotten us to the point where the thin veneer of civilization that we all take for granted every single day is wearing dangerously thin.
The truth is that it is not going to take much to push this nation over the edge.
If this kind of rioting can take place in a community with just over 20,000 people, what would a full-blown riot look like in a city with millions of people?
That is a very sobering thing to think about.
Once upon a time in America, you could leave your doors unlocked at night and you could let your kids play in the streets without ever having to worry.
But now we are a sick, decaying nation that has millions of people ready to riot and loot at the drop of a hat.
Is there any hope for us?

Link on officer being black.
that group doesn't have conviction
conviction doesn't put a TV in their digs or food on the table

learn to read & control your prejudices
the author wrote
that the incident was being "painted" (not by him) as a racial one.
Actually, a basic problem is with those who call for "war" on any people based on ill-defined stereotypes and generalized prejudices.
Used to be that one was thought free to believe whatever they wanted,
express opinions,
and not be persecuted.
(i.e "I disagree with what you say, but will defend your right to say it")
Now, it appears, some call for a "WAR" against generalized others
based on alleged opinions allegedly held by others,
and presumptive opinions about others' opinions,
regardless what those others have actually or individually done.
I WOULD HAVE WRITTEN THE ARTICLE THE SAME WAY AND i AM WHITE AND NOT A PROGRESSIVE
Clown boy - the cops are out of control - they are thugs - in Tompkinsville - the 5 cops took down a black guy with one chocking him to death - if blacks were the perps then all five weould be charged with murder - he spoke repeatedly he could not breath as they continued for some time - further the paramedic who showed up DID NOTHING - it looks like on orders !!! "dead men tell no tales"....she is an accessory to murder as well - the cops assumed there was no video - bystander cooked them - without that video --ALL THE RESPECTIVE REPORTS WOULD BE SEAMLESS FROM EACH COP- blaming the black guy with some provocation when the tape shows NONE
WE ARE IN THE END GAME - white people are next
two women on University Place - NYC - were pepper sprayed by Tony Baloney for doing nothing - that was one of the pics above - further A JUDGE in Queens was punched in the throat - by out of control cop on a rampage - he couldnt breath - who was a bystander - A white JUDGE !!!!!
FURTHER a white woman on Union Square had her wrists broken when they put cuffs on her - for nothing - they couldnt charge her with anything
WHITES ARE NEXT - WAKE UP!
It's been here for some time, altho very subtle. It starts on social media sites to embed the shit in the sheep early on. Look up "Check your privelage" some time, it will blow your mind. Social media getting faux celebs to pimp a new take on an old classic- white privelage! Only this time they put numbers and a grading system to it so you can check how many privelages you were born with! White? Thats a strike! Male? Thats a strike! According to this you have X times more privelage than a single african mother who was raised with no father.... Etc. People are eating that shit up. My own siblings for fucks sake. They are winning.
Perhaps the article demonstrates the author's disgust with the Fascist Corpratist Police State after Judge Dick Owen, Goldman Sucks, and one of TPTB got together and imprisoned him for 10 years, seven of which was for disrespecting the contemptible court...
What happened to read (and think) before you post?
yup.....you'll welcome the jackboots with open arms until they bend you over your car and do what jackboots do......what's funny is I know your area well and when the SHTF the jackboots wont save you from what will be centralized urban killing field. Only a well armed neighborhood with ARs will help and you pussies out in West county couldn't fight your way out of shit......go ahead and pray for the jackboots
Oh, I must have ruffled the feathers of either a punk riddled with white guilt or one of the Sub-Saharans whom I'm supposed to bow down and worship at the altar of diversity. You know neither myself, nor my neighbors. We are like minded and more than prepared to deal with whatever trash comes through here. Well to do people don't just buy semi autos from Cabela's my friend. Dig?
here's what I "dig" about you.... Ben Franklin said it best coward... "” ”He who gives up freedom for safety deserves neither.” do you "dig that
as far as me.... LOL i am not deluded by your chickenshit BS about your neighborhood....... you weenies don't have shit out there.....you dress in your Cardinal shirts and eat burgers at Applebees........ you are kidding yourself not me LOL
BTW read Cloward and Piven and you'll know to fear the state and the jackboots more than a mob of morons
Please try harder. I've seen better putdown attempts in YouTube chats. At least the morons there know to capitalize the start of sentences, use punctuation, and don't sound like grunting apes. Then again, I realize what I'm dealing with here.
you are blinded by fear and stupidity ....look into your past......you cheered the NWO when they told you they were going into Iraq "because they hate us for our freedom" and yelllow cake blah blah......you cheered when they rolled out 4000 jackboots in boston after a 17 y/o was "on the loose" hehehehehehe......yeah buddy...you still don't get it do you.....they own you and all they have to do is get a few urban losers looting and you panic......"BRING IN THE JACKBOOTS" ...Have you even looked at those cops....they aren't going to protect you. Hell they'll steal you donuts and take what's not nailed down..........Fear my friend is a very powerful motivator
Alex? Is that you?
Unemployed or no, black, white or Martian, I don't give a fuck what he was wearing or how he spoke, cops shooting and killing an unarmed person who was not actively trying to hurt them or someone else (if that indeed proves to be the case) is not acceptable. It cannot be allowed to be acceptable, and who benefits when racial tension is used to placate the majority whites into not worrying about this happening to them?
The thug was fighting the cop in his car, trying to take his gun away from him. Try to not allow your guilt to get in the way of what really happened.
"The thug was fighting the cop in his car, trying to take his gun away from him."
...said a POLICE Spokesman....
The thug was fighting the cop in his car, trying to take his gun away from him.
Even if that is true, IIRC there is a precept of common law that states that once the threat is gone, there is no more justification for violence. We don't know if the kid was actually trying to get the gun. We don't know if the kid was actually running away before any shots were fired. In fact, if ANY shots were fired after the kid started running away, that is unjustified, laws to the contrary notwithstanding.
Try to not allow your guilt to get in the way of what really happened.
I assure you I have no idea what you are talking about. I have children who live and work on planet earth and I would not take kindly to harm befalling them at the hands of the police, or anyone else for that matter.
Your use of the word "thug" displays your assumption of guilt on the part of the person shot. So I will ask you to try to not allow your stupidity, prejudice, or fear to get in the way of your not knowing what actually happened.
Thug.
So the thug in the monkey police suit said, and you believe it? Kid was going to college in 2 days, I don't buy it..
The thug was fighting the cop in his car, trying to take his gun away from him. Try to not allow your guilt to get in the way of what really happened.
Oh Bullshit - at least copy and paste some documentation from a believable source.
From the Tuesday NYTimes
In a local television interview, the friend who was walking with him, Dorian Johnson, said the officer opened fire when the young men refused to move from the middle of the street to the sidewalk. He said Mr. Brown’s hands were over his head. The authorities said that Mr. Brown was shot a number of times.
I can't believe I just saw "NY Times" and "believable source" in the same post.
Bingo!
Show me one instance where Whites started looting stores in response to a police incident. In this particular case the dead black 18 year old assaulted the officer and pushed him into his patrol car as he wrestled for the officer's gun. He then ran to ascape arrest for assaulting an officer. The shoot was perfectly legal. Had I been on the scene with a carry permit I would have intervened to aid the officer (I would have shot the perp!)
These incidents are motivated by black racism against whites.
Back in the 1960s we were told that the races are equal. But we have since learned that poor whites to not mass in racially motivated mob riots to loot and burn stores, and they do not engage flash mob looting of stores nor in the knock out game or other racially motivated assaults on a mass scale.
Racial differences are real and they will continue to polarize the country.
He shoved me so I shot at teenage kids running away from me! I feared for my life!
You're fucking piece of shit.
You cannot assault an officer, go for his gun and struggle. That is felony assault on a law officer. When you turn and run away, you are resisting arrest for that offense and it is perfecly legal for the officer to shoot you to prevent escape.
By your lights, blacks should be free to play the punch out game against cops and once they turn their backs and run, there is nothing the cops can do to restrain them. If that were to become law, it would lead to white vigilante justice and ultimately race war.
it is not legal to shoot a fleeing suspect unless they pose a clear and present daner to the community by their escape. An unarmed kid is not any such danger.
You're wrong.
And even if you were not - you shouldn't want to live in a country where the cops can shoot an unarmed person in the back and call it "resisting arrest."
Kill yourself.
So if it was your son you'd be good with this shooting?
Just checking. Cause "law officers" NEVER lie. And "law officers" never do things like fire 41 rounds at an unarmed man in his doorway, or shove a plunger up some guy's ass whilst in custody.
Oh, wait THEY DID DO THOSE THINGS. Right here in NYC. And of course since 9/11/2001 everyone knows and believes that ALL NYC cops are "heroes", right?
ANd a note on the 41 shots and the murder of Amadou Diallo. One of the FOUR shooters actually got of ALL FIFTEEN ROUNDS in his clip AND RELOADED and shot one more round.
This kigs was shot IN THE BACK. Multiple times.
But if it was your son you'd say the same thing, right?
The only reason there WILL be a race war is because of our "law officers" and the parasites who write the laws and legislate their existance.
And you're a fucking idiot.
Exactly! And anyone who has been in the military knows that most blacks hate whites. Whereas, most whites do not hate blacks.
Culture is not your friend.

Too many idiots with guns are trigger happy. Sure, they get training and all that but when the substance host carrying the weapon is simply not mature or disciplined enough, no amount of training will be able to fix that.
" ...but I'm far more concerned about the 35% of unemployed..."
Bingo.
You are a fool.
GOLD AND SILVER- I do not disagree with your point but to say that chesterfield or wildwood is " living in St. Louis" is complete bullshit. Ladue and Frotenac are not St. Louis either.
Look, Obama said he wanted some sort of domestic force equally as strong as our military forces (and without the restrictions of posse comitatus). Is anyone truly surprised by this change in policing as equipment, training, attitudes, steroid abuse and even personel are transferred from our military structure to domestic law enforcement agencies and DHS? As the Colonel up in CT asked his town council, "What does every community in America need an MRAP for?" The entire psychology of LE is changing to deal with changing demographics and increasing population. However, there will never be enough LEOs to contain the eventual blowback. The underlying problem is that society is fragmenting, and these increasingly heavy-handed tactics only tend to isolate more citizens which will hasten the rupture and increase the violence on all sides. Humans are tribal folks.
What is even more sickening is the only reason to have a military is to protect the border. We have probably a 1.5 million people in the military, DHS, and all the other agencies doing nothing for America.
Good point.
On a related topic, one study I read pointed out that if only 3% of the US population rioted at any given time, there would not be enough LEOs (both local, state, and federal combined) and military (all branches, all ranks) to field the necessary force to put down the riots. This was based upon a historical study of manpower requirements per rioter to quell disturbance looking back over a thirty year period. One riot required a turnout of one LEO per almost every two rioters! Three percent seems to be the tipping point where things begin to spiral out of control quickly.
Recipe for disaster:
3 parts MRAPs
6 parts hollow points
stir in raising commodity prices
add a pinch of Ebola
raise the temperature to 451º
Moving on.....
The solution to all the riots and civil unrest is to offer personalized EBT cards...
Article is spot-on re. militarized police!
My solution for looters is heavily armed property owners actually using 2nd Amdt Rights.
Guard your store, with somebody assisting if need be, a pile of 15-20 dead looters in the front window/door would deter the rest. If LEOs try to stop you from defending your property, add them to the pile as well. FFS, it's that simple.
If it's bad enough - you should be OK.
How many Korean shop owners were prosicuted after the Rodney King riots? (and I distinctly remember some of them sporting short barrel HK MP-5s too)
Nothing says KEEP OUT
like a cluster of heads on pikes !
The nastiest death sentence I ever saw in a history book: impalement.
Some used pistols.

There was a brewing problem with my Budweiser. Yuck!
FukNaye there is. They use rice in that goddam popskull swill! Makes your gourd hurt!
Even though the economy somewhat stabalized(at least for the moment). Only stabalized for the 1% or 20%. Rest is shit on. Wait for the investigation to advance, then we can make judgement.

From Occupation to “Occupy”: The Israelification of American Domestic Security
By Max Blumenthal
The Israelification of America’s security apparatus, recently unleashed in full force against the Occupy Wall Street Movement, has taken place at every level of law enforcement, and in areas that have yet to be exposed. The phenomenon has been documented in bits and pieces, through occasional news reports that typically highlight Israel’s national security prowess without examining the problematic nature of working with a country accused of grave human rights abuses. But it has never been the subject of a national discussion. And collaboration between American and Israeli cops is just the tip of the iceberg.
Having been schooled in Israeli tactics perfected during a 63 year experience of controlling, dispossessing, and occupying an indigenous population, local police forces have adapted them to monitor Muslim and immigrant neighborhoods in US cities. Meanwhile, former Israeli military officers have been hired to spearhead security operations at American airports and suburban shopping malls, leading to a wave of disturbing incidents of racial profiling, intimidation, and FBI interrogations of innocent, unsuspecting people. The New York Police Department’s disclosure that it deployed “counter-terror” measures against Occupy protesters encamped in downtown Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park is just the latest example of the so-called War on Terror creeping into every day life. Revelations like these have raised serious questions about the extent to which Israeli-inspired tactics are being used to suppress the Occupy movement.
The process of Israelification began in the immediate wake of 9/11, when national panic led federal and municipal law enforcement officials to beseech Israeli security honchos for advice and training. America’s Israel lobby exploited the climate of hysteria, providing thousands of top cops with all-expenses paid trips to Israel and stateside training sessions with Israeli military and intelligence officials. By now, police chiefs of major American cities who have not been on junkets to Israel are the exception.
But already, the Israelification of American law enforcement appears to have intensified police hostility towards the civilian population, blurring the lines between protesters, common criminals, and terrorists. As Dichter said, they are all just “crimiterrorists.”

Very Provacative Article from Max Blumenthal. Maybe very Important to think about and pass around to others.
Some of us notices the clear indications of a Coup in the USA around 2002-2003. We were wondering how it happened and who or what was behind it.
Perhaps Rudie Guiliani and Mayor Bloomberg could be persuaded to tell us. Certainly Lannie Bruer, James B. Coumey, Mark Giliano, Sean Joyce, Roberto Muellor, Larry Thompson, Robert McCalloom, Erica Holdero, Paul Mcnuttie, Albertorino Ganzalaz won't.
Not completely off topic - West Deptford, NJ police station gets shot up:
http://www.nj.com/gloucester-county/index.ssf/2014/08/in_west_deptford_p...
Time is coming for the thugs in costumes are going to have to make the decision, where they stand.......im sure they are going to pick the fake pension
YEs, the Popo will gravitate toward the same neighborhoods. How do you shoot your neighbor's kid, shakedown commuters with b.s. speeding tix, etc., and then go home and have bbq with the neighbors. fuck that... plus most cops are morons to start with.
This, to me, is when the dynamic changes.
When do the people start actually either individually, or even more serious, start forming militia to attack police officers and their stations.
Riots are one thing. They come and go; literally flaming out.
But once armed resistance forms? Ask anyone in the Ukraine if that's going away anytime soon.

if you're old enough to remember...
wow Full movie is available too.
Here is one in "Jacojack Vision" also with full movie available:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R831f83FXWQ
If the police don't know if the shots were fired on the first pass of the car or the second, how do they know the shots came from the car at all?
I'm waiting for hobby drones to start dropping incendiaries on police stations. To say nothing of the self-driving cars packed with explosives.
It is sad.
Would be better if they allowed Free Speech, did not establish "Free Speech Zones" as abridgement of US Amendments of the US Constitution. If you get Pepper Spray in the face for Protesting in USA, then you lost your civil Rights and are back under Apartheid whether brown, yellow, black or White... it is about Class.
- No Privilege, just about do you have power & money.
Trends are across the US Middle Class, it is going away. The dream is going unless you join the fascists. You have to keep quiet and dehumanize the enemy(your Neighbor) to keep your shitty job.
- Can you do it, or will you chose a future for your Kin?
- Police State is mostly classless, it hit everyone except for the very powerful... and you live with the dishonor of your countries politicians, the dishonor of your wars, and systematic institutionalization of family, church, business, free will, liberty, freedom, debt, credit, money, and fees to cash your check or keep you savings.
**Ain't nothin' but a thing, baby.**
Actually it is everything if they don't need your deposits for loans, they use them for Bail-Ins. Damn**
Police use to be friendly as shown in Normal Rockwell’s classic painting.
Lordy.....
60's & 70 as a kid I lived in a blue collar rustbelt town of 300K and the cops were friendly... walked neighborhood beats. Connected to the community. Still remember his name officer Dale.
I don't discount anectodal evidence. It has it's place. 60's and 70's? I have a hunch you could find some opposing opinions floating about, irie.
This painting by Rockwell is nice: TheAmericanWay
Yeah. It's really called "The American Way". What propoganda? :)
the "library policeman" ?
In some areas of the country, the police are still the good guys.
I live in the outskirts East of the Dallas metroplex... but, 50 mi out of the city.... I live 7mi from the closest store and my only internet connection is broadband 4GLTE....
Out here, the county police are very nice and respectful. I don't live in the city limits on purpose but, my only experience with the county guys have all been positive.
I've also lived in the Bay Area of Calif. when I was getting my career off the ground... The cops there are horrible.... it's us against them... it's getting manhandled for a traffic stop... it's bad out there.....
I'm so happy to be in rural Texas with a high tech job. I can shoot my 300wm off the back deck into the pasture... raise animals... have a garden and still get into work when I need to go in.
Bay Area cops are shit. I can attest to that.
I'm not a fan of arbitrary power. Benevolent or otherwise.
whirling tword;
You are probably gone by now. Was going to ask if you had low water rates and easy water and good water or Well water. What are the chances that you will get Fracking in your area if you have Well Water?
I'm currently on co-op water but, I have a pond on the property. Rates are usually from 35-50.00/mo. which may seem like a lot but, I have livestock etc. and live an a small ( hobby ) farm. Our water is from the aquifer which is well water. It's been good clear tasteless water.
I'm thinking of drilling a well... I've researched it a bit and there's a minor aquifer under me... but, you have to drill almost 600' to get to it so, a well won't be cheap to install.
We do use a lot of water out here.... It'd be nice to just pay for the electricity to pump it out of the ground.
Not sure about any fracking being done in the area... don't seem to have any oil drilling where I'm at.
I guess Ferguson will Not host the World Cup anytime soon?
Ferguson Is A Perfect Example Of How Quickly The Streets Of America Can Descend Into ChaosNo, but they are most certainly in the final five for the next Shit Fling Olympics.
Levi, is that you?
White America better understand. Be more afraid of the thugs in costumes , than those with darker skin than you. They are much more dangerous to your well being BOTH PHYSICALLY AND FINANCIALLY !!
Balony. I grew up in one of the 10 most dangerous cities in America - one similar to St. Louis which is also on the list. I never had trouble with cops, but much of the city was off limits to me, especially after dark, due to racially motivated black violence. Suburban Whites who have good real estate are delusional.
<-- White looking dude that grew up in Jacksonville, Florida during the crack era, let's see you come out with understanding of that environment... While I had my problems with some of the neighbors, I was never assaulted for any reason by anyone. Every altercation I had was settled in a peaceful manner. I respected them and they respected me. Coexistence is a matter of learning how to push your ego aside and being tolerant of other cultures. I respected them, and they did the same for me.
The first time I met a cop though, I was handcuffed and arrested for committing a crime I could not possibly have committed because I had just landed in "Suburbia White town" the day before.
I don't care what any of you chicken littles have to say, the cops are more of a threat than any "black (boogie)man" is to my livelihood. I've never had a Black man threaten me with imprisonment if I didn't pay my extortion fees to their revenue generation scheme.
You old racists haven't a clue what goes on in the inner city. Even the Blacks know that if you live next to them you're just as screwed by the state and the police as they are.
These guys are old because they have spent many years on this planet. Some are "racist" because what they have experienced during those many years.
NidStyles;
I'm not sure what Fred is talking about. But when I was 18 before I went into the service, I ended up in front of a house in Denver in early 1980s, was asked if I wanted to drink a beer from the keg, then it turned racial when someone asked me why was I drinking their beer? Obviously I wasn't there to provoke anyone, was quietly trying to enjoy the company of the young guys (me white, and them black)... but people don't all drink happy. Brown, Black, Yellow, White, some of us get morose and angry when we drink. Short Story, I was bailed out by my female friend that told me not to drink and just stay there in front of the house. Looked like I was going to get my butt kicked. But I found the same thing on Native Indian Reservation in New Mexico. I had to be saved by an Indian and I wasn't even drinking their beer.
But let me tell you that Japanese also will come after you for the Bombing of Hrioshima and Nagasaki.
But let me tell you a that some Hispanics will come after you too.
Let's all Check our Privilege.
Let's remember "the Scientific Method", Logic, all come under Philosophy. USA had a campaign to kill philosophy and Logic and the looking for evidence. This is related to the take over of Education and Media.
Sorry it sucks. Racism is about co-opting logic, education, and philosophy. The USA is done. We are Fascist. We are Fascist. We are Fascist.
Germany won WWII through influence of Nazis with our US Intelligence & With British Intelligence. We adopted all Nazi Organizational Methods and Nazi Science.
Cry now America. Call them Liberal or Neocons... you got fascist.
Don't forget about the biggest thug...the one with the printing press. Yep, she steals more of your wealth than any of the other crooks, and most have no idea they are being robbed because she smiles and speaks using large words whilst shrinking the value of our currency.
I remember a cop beating a hippie over the head with his baton in a yachting town on Lake Michigan in 1971. I was 9 yrs. old. Norman Rockwell painted fantasies!
I wish I could paint in that genre of painting but make the painting depict actual life in Amerika these days. I always figured I could call them Rorman Nockwell's. You know, have an idealic city scene in the winter, smoke coming from the chimneys, but a closer look in the window shows a man beating his wife, the son huffing Dust-off in his bedroom, the daughter getting banged by some stranger in the basement, and a cop beating someone outside.
Sweet. I will take 2.
I'm about your age, but I remember rioting in Berkeley, nude weddings in Golden Gate park, hippies that smelled so badly that I gagged, grownups peeing in gutters, the destruction of the Hait by tasteless jerks who burnt beautiful mouldings and painting their entryways purple, kids so high that they wandered into traffic, a mentally ill woman recently released from prison setting herself on fire on El Camino Real (busy street) ...
... and the police standing silently, doing nothing, arresting no one, as property and people were destroyed.
We're not gonna take it any more !

Yup the issue is the police are focused on keeping the government safe not the citizens. What irks me most is the media stating "how police killed an unarmed black man"?? what were the actions leading up to this.
50 years of political correctness have repressed, but not altered, the truths that our great-grandparents understood quite well. There are only two options for dealing with people who live amongst civilized men but who cannot be civilized themselves: they can be controlled, or they can be allowed to run amok and drag everything down to their level.
They can be controlled; they have been before. We just lack the political will to do so today, and we are prevented from trying by a stifling ideology. That ideology, viz. political correctness, is the American version of Soviet planned-economy propaganda, and it will share the same fate. A truer and fresher, but starker and more uncompromising view of reality, will emerge after America undergoes its own imperial collapse.
Then Ferguson and other similar problems will be settled quickly.
You live up to your name so well.
Control is an illusion for fools and morons.
Control is [a solution to] fools and morons.
That's what I'm saying.
Fools and morons are your neighbors! Control rabid controllers like you, that's what I'm saying!
Look at that pic of the swat team in the MRAP. Ridiculous. Laughable if it wasn't so un-funny.
Look at the last pic of the three officers and the guy back peddling from them. Those cops arms are huge. They either lift for the majority of their days or are on some steroids to help, they didn't get arms like that doing manual labor. And then there is the digital camo, combat boots, ballistic helmet and body armor. Like you said laughable if it wasn't so un-funny.
It's on like donkey kong....Let's get this party started, rock and roll mofo

2 Billion HP rounds of ammo have somebody's name on them.
Sadly Ironic, most might be used on former Obama Voters and
Obame backers
the natives are getting restless, shocking
Chiggers have been bad this year too.
That made me snigger.
This is why those crazy preppers have been busy prepping
I think these concerns are slightly ahead of events ... but only slightly.
For the evolutionists: you wonder how evolution occurred? You're seeing it. No one can tell me that black people don't look like monkeys. They have less impulse control and simply haven't achieved the ability of higher thinking. Common sense dictates this. They are quite literally fresh out of the jungle.
Pick any primarily black community and compare it to Liberia. No discernible difference.
Asian, European and Arab people are responsible for 99% of all technological advances and inventions. The only thing black people have created is an extraordinary need for welfare.
Nothing comes out of Africa other than disease, poverty, welfare recipients, and hurricanes. This isn't racism this is fact.
You can't even assimilate black people into Western culture. We have found the "missing link".
Asians and Europeans are responsible for 99% of the 99% of inventions that Asian, European and Arab people are responsible for. If not for oil, arab nations would be indescernable from african nations.
Arabs have been credited with creating the guitar. So there's that.
Gibson and Fender don't appear Arabic
Harmony - perhaps.
The Harmony Rocket is the most mojoliscious guitar ever made
Arabs invented algebra as we know it and practice it today, for one. Also brought the concept of the number 0 into the European number system. They've slipped a long way over the last few hundred years, but you can give them at least a little credit.
How did arabs "invent" algebra?
I invented the moon.
Careful buddy. Don't want to see you get francis_sawyer'ed.
I agree with you up to a point, but I'd add a small item.
90% of advances, social, scientific, etc in the last 1,000 years have been in Christian-dominated countries. Not in moslem-dominated countries, or in Buddist or Hindu dominated societies, and certainly not in atheistic (communist) countries.
As Christianity is eliminated from society, it's tempering effect is being lost. What do you think it'll be replaced with? Sex, drugs, idiotic TV shows depicting violence? What kind of a society does anyone expect if God is kicked out?
You're bringing up religion which really isn't the topic. Oppennheimer (grandfather of the a bomb and genius) quoted the bhagavad gita here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuRvBoLu4t0 which is Hindu scripture.
We're talking about race.
Idiot: Do you like numbers? Arab invention
Do you like zero: impossible to to higher math without it: Arab invention
Do like hash? Arab invention
Do you like chese? Arab, Muslim invention
Did you ever read Averroes or Avicenna? Of course not.
I can't believe how many idots post here as if they know history; the funny thing is the less they know the prouder is their prose.
Pathetic.
Arabs invented numbers?
By any chance are you black?
Did I miss /sarc?
Yes Arabs invented the numbers we use today; a vast,vast improvement on the Roman numeral system.
How would you like: MMCCLVII
divided by : LXII
=========================== or 2,257 divided by 62???????
Answer
I'm Irish so I do have some natural affinity for oppressed people.
Don't let your affinity for oppressed people cloud your objective judgment of them.
Just because they might have been oppressed in the past doesn't make automatically them good people, or deserving of some kind of positive bias.
It's not contradictory to both 1. acknowledge that what was done to an oppressed people in the past was wrong but at the same time 2. judge them objectively on their achievements (or lack thereof) and their actions/behaviors/values (or lack thereof). They could still be gutter trash.
I invented the #1
F the Irish. The only ones with any balls are Clare Daly. Clare gets bonus points for out that tax cheat f**k Bono.

The Irish kissing Obamerrs arse and I am part Irish. These lazy f**cks never had to deal with Islam like the Greeks, Italians, Austrians, Poles, Spainards and Germans did. Oh we were abused by the (annoying and vile zio) British.
Read some history Seamus and you might learns about battles like Lepanto and Vienna (twice). While the Irish were being weepy little f**ks singing about Kilkenny - the Itlalinas, Venetians, Spaniards, Austrians, Greeks and others were kicking Islamo arse.
I don't dislike Muslims as some of them like the Syrians and Iranian (Hezbollah) fought to protect Syrians, including Christians, from ISIS created by the USA (McCain-Obama-AIPAC), UK, Saudis, Israel, Turkey and other scum. I have more respect for the Egyptians taking to the streets against the Muslim Brotherhood versus clueless Americans watching TV like sheep.
The muslims may have created numbers but it took an Italian to do something with them. The traders types here will know who I am talking about. Leonardo of Pisa (1170-1250).
Words like 'Arab' and 'Muslim' are useless catchall phrases.
Arabs are specifically only people from Arabia. The problem I have with the use of the phrase Muslim is when it is used in a historical context "the muslims did this or that...". Its meaningless! It makes it seem like their religion MUST have been the reason for their actions.
Take the Ottomans for example. A lot of times a historian will talk about them and say "The Muslims took the island of Rhodes", "All of Christian Europe would have become Muslim".
Meanwhile, how many Serbs, Hungarians, Greeks, Slavs, were in the Ottoman Army? It was probably about 50%! Janissaries were Christian boys, 'forced to convert', which really just means 'for official purposes'.
BTW, 'Arabic' medicine was more advanced than Western medicine circa 1000 AD - 1300 AD, the spread of that knowledge went a long way towards increasing quality of life, and life expectancy (for all, not just 'muslims').
Most people like to ignore that Babylon was in the Middle-East and that the classification of the people called "Arab" really is a misnomer for people that did not exist 4000 years ago in any significant numbers. The people that were responsible for the greatest discoveries that came from that region were all born under the non-religious secular empire of Greece/Macedonia.
If anything the greatest dicoveries of history were made by the Greeks, Persians, and what we now call the Chinese.
Nid: The Greeks, Persians borrowed heavily from the Egyptians.
Greece, Macedonia were very religious. Alexander the Great was very particular in his sacrifices to the Gods. He kept the Illiad under his pillow when he slept.
Most of the writers of the New Testament were all Greek.
Dude, you don't know what you are talking about.
Well when an Arab, from Arabia, conquers Syria, Morocco, Spain what do you call him? Arab.
You are right about Arab/Muslim contribution to medicine. They invented vaccinations.
The Arab/Muslims also invented chess, the parachute, shampoo and coffeee.
I hope the Village Idiot is writing this all down so he can continue to educate himself.
Clitorectomies?
Honor Killings?
Bacchi Boys?
Slavery?
Religious Persecution?
Gender Persecution?
Why don't you let some of those poor un-housed, oppressed Palistinians share your house, o interweb defender of the misunderstood and unaccredited brown peoples?
The Indians (dot not feather) invented zero.
First of all, I live in Da Lou. Second I have friends in EMS/Fire/Police. There's more to this story than what is being reported. Before we pull out our "Jump to Conclusions mat", let's let some of the facts come out. This kid was not on his way to a bible study that evening, word on my "informed" street is that the police were actively looking for him in connection with earlier activities that evening.
Unless he killed someone, they had no right to kill him. Have your informed street let you know, and get back to us.
Even if he did kill someone, he has a right to trial. We don't pratice Sharia law yet in America.
That's all you got? Better write up more details than that.
Cop shot an unarmed teenager. Several people saw it.
What facts are we missing here?
High on crack an totin a machine gun

OH time.
Just to think, Poor little baby Saint Trabon the Second was going to CORRECT good Will Hunting's equations and then give us the cure for cancer and faster than light travel.
Shot, for being black on a Friday Night!
That will look real nice on his tombstone in Arlington.
The sheriff's department for Santa Cruz Co. now has a bomb disposal truck which might be appropriate for NYC or Chicago....funded of course by the Feds. Great use of tax dollars.
Then make them use it frequently.
Making high explosive really isn't difficult.The ingredients are all readily available.

Banana slugs can get out of control at the drop of a hat.
Like totally bro! One day the west side's gonna look like Gaza! Dude''ll be like firing water rockets from the barrel at Stockton Ave. at the advancing kooks! It'll be like a big day at Mav's but not as pretty. Wo. I'm goin' to Mex man. There's nobody out!
Go long Abrams tanks. Every city with a population of 2,000 or more will soon have one...or two. It's for the chillrens.
Out town of 35,000 just got an MRAP. They had an event downtown and an MRAP was sitting in the street for folks to look at. I got up close and noticed it was a county vehicle. Our town is the county seat, so we have 2 MRAPs. Holy shit.
Police officer caught on video calling Michael Brown protesters "f***ing animals" http://huff.to/1sz5z8O
I've seen police officers referring to Occupy protesters as animals too. To be honest, my dog has more respect for others than these people protesting.
Animali...
Diversity + disparate impact laws = one-size-fits-all policing to the lowest common denominator, aka a police state.
I don't mean to sound racist, but I kind of noticed that Black people like to use any excuse to riot and loot. I get the anger at police, but what does looting a convenience store have to do with what the police did?
You don't sound racist, you sound realist. You took the racial red pill. Just give your eyes a few minutes to adjust, and then confirm your observation by perusing the archves at VDARE, if you haven't already. You'll find you're not alone in what you see, and every bit of objective evidence bears you out.
I heard reports on other sites that a shoe store was looted. Everything was taken except the work boots.
Thats a serious game of paintball they are playing!
I need to upgrade my equipment
23,000 and 76,000 are small towns? Hahaha! Too many people for me.
Those are cities. I grew up in a town of 2000 and a city fo 20,000 about 20-30 minutes away. 76,000 a small town, hahaha that is a metropolis to me.
Yeah a population of 76k is considered pretty big for a state like Oregon.
Shame America, shame....
People will still "Support Our Troops" even when they will be shooting them later.

Seems to me that this is an important piece of 'asking for trouble'.
"Is there any hope for us?"
NO! what goes around comes around. it's your turn in the barrell
Exile Jamie Dimon, Loyd Blankfein, Janet Yellen and Obama and the problem will go away.
5% of 315 million is 15.75 million. Far in excess of total civilian law enforcement and military combined. A relatively small revolt will bring down this shitwagon. The instigators do not have to be on the same team either.
