Tired of my black FB friends on the Brown-Wilson verdict.

How can I shut them up?

defriend them, both on Facebook and irl.

Call the police and report whoever is forcing you to read facebook

But why were klansmen funding his support?

Will anyone in here answer that.

He has direct ties to the group. Most well informing people I know don't have ties to domestic terrorist organiZations

WTF?

The Klan are doctors now?

:aceisreallyfrickingconfusednow:

Basically, if a person has an opinion on ferguson, there is no point discussing it with them. The lines are drawn.

What they are trying to say is that racist persist everywhere, in every field, Etc., and they don't have to wear just white gowns.

No that's not true

I am disgusted that all things are drawn racially. She meanwhile applauds Ray Rice saying he did nothing wrong and it should be only a family thing.

I believe social media will prolong racism another generation....I do not believe racial tensions were this high when I was in HS in the early 2000s and before FB, Twitter, etc.

I believe his wife is his link to the clan. She has direct ties to the klan

So which is it? Is his wife in the Klan or is Wilson in the Klan? And are you relying solely on Anonymous - while correct about the actual outcome (and so was I and a majority of legal experts and analysts), but wrong about the date and wrong about indicating the GJ had already made their decision weeks before it actually happened?

Or do you have some actual evidence, other than some B$ you saw on the internet? (Which, of course, all of this is - no question). The burden of proving something is on the person asserting the fact. Wilson should not have to prove a negative. If he sought crowd funding and got it from a Klan group - that's a problem. He should politely return it. However if he doesn't know or hasn't had time to do that yet, I would give him a few days - things have been chaotic for a few weeks.

One would hope, however, that we're not tarring and feathering him on a whispering campaign. Do you really believe the DA (a Democrat, Obama-supporting DA, BTW) would not investigate further, possible connections between this particular police officer and white supremacist groups?

Really?

You can unfollow people on FB without unfriending them and without them knowing if you want to avoid seeing their bullshite.

THIS. I filtered my friends into one category -- those who do not post every 6 hours and re-tweet meaningless to the majority bull shite...along with those who intentionally bring up topics like that. It'll make FB seem pretty decent. To some, FB is a way of making one's dick/boobs appear a foot longer than actuality and it's also a tool to use for griping and passively-aggressively spouting off. Your black friends fall into that category one way or another.
