If you like your big government, you can keep it!

This is basically what I decided last night watching liberal media from CNN engage with cops to create a story, while protestors did the same.

If you support a massive government that bleeds into all aspects of your daily live, then you support what is going down in Ferguson currently.

For people who support big government, how else do you think they can enforce the laws in question that seep into your daily life? There will be some sort of executive/policing agency executing the laws of that government.

It's an odd situation. On one hand many in the Black community believe a big government is necessary to protect them from Whitey.

But look at the results they claim. They claim the police are oppressors. Guess what... the police are government!

No one has been more shabbily treated by the government than the Black community. Yet they fully support an ever growing government as the answer to their problems. Classic case of enabling.

exactly my thoughts as i was watching shite unfold last night (especially since there were many instigators in the crowd)

also look at the progression

quote:

1. we can't trust local cops. we need county cops and a county investigation
2. we can't trust county cops. we need state police
3. Ron Johnson is an Uncle Tom, we need the feds
4. The National Guard is too much. I thought this was America!


what the frick do they want?

I was just thinking of one of those laws the other day while pumping gas. The regulations that require gas pump inspections are just big government bull-crap. I don't need the nanny state to ensure the gas station doesn't rig their meters to rip me off! I like getting ripped off, the government needs to get the frick out the way! This is just big government bullcrap that will lead to a riot.

It's simply ignorance of how life works in general. They look at the world as "us and them", with "them" not being very well defined. "They" could be the police, white people, the gov't as a whole (except Obama of course), corporations, etc. The looting is a prime example. Why destroy people in your community's livelihood for something the police did? They have no clue why, it's just us vs. them.

Whenever an opportunity arises to be the victim they take full advantage. And when I say "they" I mean certain members of the black community.

They want an all Black country apparenlty

they only trust one another

yet steal and kill each other...but if whitey is involved a revolution must be started

I will never understand black culture

Did you see the black officer speak to his commmunity?

He said his "son wears his pants saggin, has tats all over, and ball cap turned...but that's my baby"

I am like, why do you allow your son to look like that and be perceived as such? makes no sense coming from a Dad/officer that has a heart for people...embracing this part of black culture comes with consequences is all I am going to say.

Or, maybe after being ripped off once or twice, you will stop going to that gas station, and instead go to another station that doesn't rip you off. Or, you can use the tort system and sue them for fraud, claiming damages in them not rendering a service as promised.

It's absurd.

I made a similar thread about how many of the people opposed to what the police are doing are also pro-gun control. Unbelievably ironic.

it would be almost impossible to tell if they were ripping you off.

the same tort system that many conservatives want to reform to remove unnecessary lawsuits?
