All black delegation? ?? Definitely the first step of sharia law...


Racism is back in full view fellas. I was talking to pops, 80 years old. Damn shame to see things happening in a familiar way... that's for sure.

"us and them"

And if Obama called out the FPD as the corrupt and racist construct it is last week, those same people would've jumped down his throat for attempting to set off a "race war"

In case anyone missed it: Two St. Louis–Area Cops Suspended After Racist Rants

Next up is the comparatively tame officer Matthew Pappert of the Glendale Police Department, which operates about 15 minutes away from where Darren Wilson killed Michael Brown. The Daily Caller was the first to note that Pappert's Facebook page began filling up with ugly complaints about the protests in Ferguson starting on August 17.

Pappert also referred to the demonstrators as "a burden on society and a blight on the community," "thugs," and "white trash," and suggested that "a Muslim with a backpack" deal with them somehow. After viewing the posts, Glendale police chief Jeffrey Beaton told the Post-Dispatch that Pappert had been taken off duty while the department conducts an internal investigation of him. "These type of allegations could result in disciplinary action up to and including termination," Beaton said.

The "us and them" thing makes the image especially shitty. All the subtle and subverted racism that's been on display recently is more depressing than the actual Mike Brown shooting.

The question is, who would want to live in an "us and them" world? Going by the reactions to this event, many people would.

Darren Wilson’s first job was on a troubled police force disbanded by authorities

So when do we start the narrative that Daren Wilson was a racist powder keg ready to explode?

Comes from a broken home with multiple fathers, you know what they say about boys who don't have a father figure? Ask a conservative about black youths without fathers. :-/

Learned to be a cop in a terribly racist police force and was eventually fired along with everyone else there.

Recently filed for divorce from his wife.

Obviously he was a ticking time bomb of a police officer just waiting to get revenge on the black community for getting him fired from his first, structured job.
 
Jay Nixon has to be one of the worst politicians ive seen handle a situation like this, and to make it worse hes the damn governor, he needs to be a healer for his people

Officers rarely stay in the same police force for a long time, much less for an entire career. This means police and residents are typically strangers to one another — and not simply from different social, ethnic or racial backgrounds.

Ferguson is an example of a police department staffed predominantly with white officers, many of whom live far away from, and often fail to establish trust with, the predominantly black communities they serve.

FERGUSON, Mo. — The small city of Jennings, Mo., had a police department so troubled, and with so much tension between white officers and black residents, that the city council finally decided to disband it. Everyone in the Jennings police department was fired. New officers were brought in to create a credible department from scratch.

That was three years ago. One of the officers who worked in that department, and lost his job along with everyone else, was a young man named Darren Wilson.

Racial tension was endemic in Jennings, said Rodney Epps, an African American city council member.

“You’re dealing with white cops, and they don’t know how to address black people,” Epps said. “The straw that broke the camel’s back, an officer shot at a female. She was stopped for a traffic violation. She had a child in the back [of the] car and was probably worried about getting locked up. And this officer chased her down Highway 70, past city limits, and took a shot at her. Just ridiculous.”

Police faced a series of lawsuits for using unnecessary force, Stichnote said. One black resident, Cassandra Fuller, sued the department claiming a white Jennings police officer beat her in June 2009 on her own porch after she made a joke. A car had smashed into her van, which was parked in front of her home, and she called police. The responding officer asked her to move the van. “It don’t run. You can take it home with you if you want,” she answered. She said the officer became enraged, threw her off the porch, knocked her to the ground and kicked her in the stomach.

Not posting that part to reflect on Wilson at all. Just the overall problem that started this whole mess.

I'm almost tempted to say that the refusal to acknowledge systemic racism is worse than the system itself. Fuck me.

"I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection." - MLK

It doesn't sound like it was jaywalking (crossing illegally), but walking down the middle of the street.
 
The Hell does Wilson need money for? He didn't even lose his job. Are they like, donating so he can buy an expensive lawyer for his already rigged trial?
 
Casimir said:
Huh, ~$130,000. I expected maybe $10,000-50,000. I wonder how the donations breakdown based on profession.

For anyone interested in a comparison, the Michael Brown gofundme is around ~$230,000. http://www.gofundme.com/justiceformikebrown

Well, unfortunately...

The original fundraiser had raised over $235,000 before passing on the torch to Shield of Hope. The new Shield of Hope-run page has raised over $11,000 on its own.

If only people could at least channel their racism and money into worthwhile pursuits instead.
