Are you not reading my posts? I'm saying there should have been a protest but when people actually knew the facts. AGAIN, why are you avoiding your own argument that protesting early is more beneficial???

Not at all. A racist statement is a racist statement. Good on ya.

You can't think of a protest where there was no rioting or looting?


Not one that was like the one in this topic and started spontaneously at a scene.

While I disagree with this happening anywhere I think it would be more on topic to point out any benefits of this one.

Rosa Parks broke the law. Should the protesters in Montgomery have waited until her case was finalized? Until it went to court? When?

So how many extra conditions do we need to add?

I never said it was more beneficial. I just don't see it as useless or stupid.

This is far from a good comparison. This is not the civil rights era, no matter how bad they want it to be.

Since parenting has gone to shite, teachers are frickin horrible, it's time to put in a law, where every kid has to do 2-4 years in Armed forces.

Instead of wasting 4 years in college on a shithole degree, these kids can learn trades, get trained, and every child will know some sort of trade/skill/etc to use when they get out.

a lot of todays parenting consosts of an ipod, ipad, iphone, and an xbox/ps

I don't need to. For the most part white people are held in check b/c we believe in turning in the POS that commit the crimes


Yeah right. I didn't see any white taxpayers turn in Bundy for not paying his federal taxes. Whites was standing side by side in support, opposing the local law enforcement

They stole the land by not paying taxes lol

PC Cliffs

1. Release date was affected by making sure nobody else would be charged, and to verify all the info from it. Lots of FOI requests, and had to release it.

2. Had to release all info showing brown as suspect at the same time the officer was involved for transperancy.

3. No more info to give out

4. Johnson did not commit a crime won't be charged.

5. Initial contact between officer and brown was not related to the robbery.

We are still speaking "in general". Staying on topic would narrow the type of protests to match up here.

Why would said parents allow this sort of thing when the gov't pays them?


Stop making popping out babies a way to get a paycheck. Take the children away from parents that don't actually raise them, and instead of sticking them in foster care, send them somewhere they can learn to be useful to society.

When they knew the circumstances of the situation... Oh wait, that's what they did. Go figure.
