Thank you very much for reminding me. In a few hours I'm going to be at Thanksgiving with my racist family, and will most likely get treated to their oh so open-minded thoughts on the matter. And the fact that Obama is somehow involved in all this will just make it even more pleasant.

Every time this **** happens with my family, I just have to remind myself that if I say anything, it'll be like talking to an arrogant wall that gets mad when you disagree with it. So I sit in silence, wondering what it would be like if everyone in my family had as much common sense as my mother.

Is burning down a business that never harmed you in any way not the act of a savage?

Sounds like my house. My family really disgusts me sometimes.

I don't get why people here are defending Michael Brown. Didn't this as-shole show his true nature in the surveillance footage in that shop--stealing merchandise, intimidating the shop owner? He was a big, fat prick. Now he's a dead, big, fat prick and good riddance.

Just yesterday I heard a man say, "We need more good young men like Michael Brown in this country." F-uck you, we have way too many like him.

I don't understand how he can act that way and still get the benefit of the doubt over the cop who shot him. I see no evidence that this cop is lying or that he had any intention of killing an innocent person. He killed Michael Brown because Michael Brown is a f-ucking prick who was asking for it. At least now he won't be sucking up $30,000 a year of taxpayer money as penitentiary inmate because that was clearly his goal in life.

And I loathe the rioters. As soon as you start destroying other people's property, you are nothing but a f-ucking vandal who should be forced to pay restitution AND go to prison with a felony conviction. Such people have no credibility and I am not the slightest bit interested in anything they have to say.

That's my contribution to this thread.

Wow.

Don't hold back man. Let it all out.

(I agree in the most general sense with what your saying but I 100% disagree with your message - you do realize that YOU are a major part of the problem. Right?)

Unless he's going around making his own neighborhood an unlivable ****hole like Brown did and like the rioters are doing he's NOT the problem.

Some black people are rioting over the results of this situation. Therefore, all black people are savages.


You're ****ing stupid.

I'd be willing to wager there's plenty of rioters of other ethnicities, too. And isn't Ferguson predominately and African American city?

Use your goddamn head. Your comments on this event so far are seriously unnerving to anyone with a lick of sense.

It would serve you well to argue against the things I'm actually saying instead of things that you're pretending I said.

That is, if you want to argue.

I assumed your comment was in response to

It doesn't seem farfetched to me that someone might interpret what you said as agreeing with that statement.
