Real reason for the riots in Missouri....

The real reason these riots are occurring is that they are being tolerated. For one reason or another (everyone knows why)....these people are being handled with kid gloves. Well, as long as this is done...they will continue to riot. When authorities finally put their foot down and put an end to it...it will end.

I agree with you. Had the looting and rioting been met with a "zero tolerance" approach it wouldn't have continued. Trying to placate and pacify has sent the message that the foolishness on full display is acceptable. They have essentially invited more rioting and looting.
Absolutely.

Like Captain Redlegs said in "The Outlaw Josey Wales"...."doin right don't never end". The war for 'social justice'...don't never end either.

But but but militarization of the police! The atrocities against these peaceful protests will not stand! Innocent unarmed black teen shot in the back! Grrrrrrrrr!
Police demilitarize when the threats diminish. Not the case nowadays with thugs toting choppas (AK47s), wackjobs blowing shite up, and rioters harming property and people. Send your son to Iraq with a .22 and a pickup truck? I think not. Send your son to Ferguson with a Baton and vest? frick no.

Wouldn't "zero tolerance" cause even further outbreaks of these rioters? "We're being oppressed from looting!"

Redistribution of resources by force. Kind of like when you don't purchase an insurance plan under Obamacare.

It's because neither the President nor the Givernor want any blood shed on their watch (eg. Kent State). Over the last 50 years, rioters and hooligans have always been treated with kid gloves, it's nothing new. If not, the U.S. government would have been killing rioters by the bushel in the 1960's.

.....horsehocky.....the reason is that black people are involved and NO ONE would dare hold them to any standard of acceptable social behavior......why then you would be a RACIST!!!!

To late at this point, that poor little town will be much poorer after all this. Awhole lot of the woerking folk will be moving on after this. And the vacum wont be replaced with rich tax payers. The leaders you saw in the streets lastnight have realize this. But its to late. The media and polticians have destroyed that place.

If the National Guard had been sent in the L.A. riots ( and I said this at the time) and an ultimatum been sent out, you all have 2 ours to cease and desist, if not send your women and children out because we coming in to get you anarchists POS"s, then there would have never been no more rioting.
Again we look like fools to the world.
A bunch if grown azz people who look like stupid azz children.

A rather ironic situation imo. Two people stopped for walking down the middle of the street. Bad things happen. People call for justice.
Several hundred, maybe thousands, walking down the middle of the streets. Bad things happen, yet no one calls for justice of their actions.

Obama/Holder pounced on this situation like they were a couple of ambulance chasers, not really concerned about the loss of life, the family, the community, etc. For them it's a situation to be exploited and used to their advantage... And in doing so, they perpetuate the whole idea that this guy was targeted because he was black, further fanning the flames of supposed racial injustice...

there, I'm done...

Anyone who thinks that Obama and Holder are glad that things are the way they are in Ferguson is too paranoid and delusional to be taken seriously.

Don't know what that has to do with this, but I wanted to stop in and say what a great movie. Lot of great one-liners.

agreed, the rioting isn't spreading to other cities the way the proglefty's hoped, and the first howdy doody is more disappointed than anyone.

well i agree obama doesn't want this. he has zero to gain and a lot to lose.
But i don't see leftists wanting riots in other cities. I have a ton of leftist friends and none are advocating that. in fact, a common critique with the socialists is what pussies the mainstream leftists are.

what does he have to lose exactly? he's already lost all credibility with anyone who has a shred of objectivity, so that's already gone. He has no election to worry about, his legacy is set, he can easily play golf the remainder of his term and will be "hailed" by those who supported his election. "A lot to lose"?

yea sure, you socialists don't like the "mainstream" because many are just doing the populist dance of the day and aren't "down with the cause". Leftists never want "anything bad to happen" yet they view every crisis as an opportunity and are more than happy to gen up a "crises" when there are too few to get the job done.
If only you prog-leftys realized how ridiculously transparent and easy to read you are.Posted on 8/19/14 at 1:17 pm to Jim Ignatowski
