There seems to be very little sympathy for the blacks in Ferguson among whites

I don't see many white liberals running to defend these looters and vandals. Very few even trying to blame the cop.

Perhaps the race baiters have worn out their welcome. Perhaps the tide has turned and more people will expect black young men to actually take responsibility for their actions.

I am encouraged that over 100 people have been arrested in the riots and no one seems to be demanding their release or saying how their acts of crime were justified.

Maybe---just maybe we have turned a corner or are very near the corner.

I bet it will be hard for democrat to carry Missouri in 2016.

Just maybe the "corner" relates to tolerance. Just maybe when some liberal consumed with white guilt will watch a news feed of a race riot and call it for what it is now and not see some "glorious uprising of the trampled minorities".

I just don't think the behavior is as tolerable as it was. These fools are losing their white liberal support---I think.

You expect white liberals to defend looting? What does that say about your pre-conceived notions?

The liberals that grow up are merely replaced by new, younger ignorant kids looking to be seen as intellectual and enlightened.

Pre-conceived notions?? You perhaps did not hear the liberals justifying the looting after Katrina.



None were charged in Orleans Parish. Very little looting in Jefferson--seems everyone believed Harry Lee when he said he would shoot looters.

The fact that THAT gives anyone hope says a lot.

I bet you won't see a democrat running for President in Ferguson on St. Louis 6 o'clock news if they think they have to win Missouri.

Anyone having sympathy for people who loot and burn and destroy properties is an abettor to the cause. They are just as worthless to the human race as the people doing the actual deeds.

Giuliani weighs in.

In liberal or conservative circles in New York City Giuliani's opinions carry weight. Fewer people, I suspect, in the future will willing to immediately scream racism when these events happen.

Black liberals will have a harder and harder time blaming whites with moderates like Giuliani say murder and crime is problem in black communities.

quote:

"I don't see how this case normally would even have been brought to a grand jury," said Giuliani, a former prosecutor, on Fox News Sunday. "This is the kind of case—had it not had the racial overtones and the national publicity—where a prosecutor would have come to the conclusion that there is not enough evidence to present to the grand jury."

"Attorney General Holder’s gonna have to take a case in which a jury couldn't find probable cause to indict, and he's gonna have to try to find probable cause in front of a federal grand jury,” Giuliani said. "It's an impossible case to present to a grand jury.”

Giuliani also doubled down on controversial comments he made last Sunday on NBC's Meet The Press, in which he said so-called black-on-black crime was "the reason for the heavy police presence in the black community" and suggesting that "the danger to a black child ... is another black." In a heated exchange with Michael Eric Dyson, a noted Georgetown University professor and civil rights activist, Giuliani said, "the white police officers won't be there if you weren't killing each other."

When asked about a Pew Research Center survey which found that 70 percent of black Americans believe they are treated less fairly than whites in their experience with police, Giuliani ceded to Fox host Chris Wallace, "I do believe that there is more interaction and more unfair interaction between police officers, white and black."

However, he insisted that reality is in the hands of the black community, saying, "I think just as much, if not more, responsibility is on the black community to reduce the reason why the police officers are assigned in such large numbers to the black community," He added: "It's because blacks commit murder eight times more per capita than any other group in our society."

"If I'd put all my police on Park Avenue instead of Harlem, thousands more blacks would have died during my time in office,"
Giuliani said.
