what in the heck is this world coming to? i saw where an officer was screaming at protestors, I will ***** kill you.. I think he was suspended. What part of that did he think was ok? I think it was even recorded and is on youtube.
Well, we already knew that community relations between the FPD and the residents was in the crapper. It just some incident like this one to set this off...

Huffington Post.com has an article and a video of that. Graphic language.

I've continually maintained that demonstrations as we have witnessed in Ferguson, etc, do not help the cause.

Apparently I'm not the only one that feels that way....

That seems to not have taken place night before last, not sure about last night. It appears there was a considerable amount of that done by non-locals, and they have arrested more than a few people.

Fairly believable account. Interesting to note that a crucial period between when Brown was running away from the officer and when he was going down was missed by this witness as he was trying to rush outside to get a better vantage point with his phone :)rolleyes:). Consequently, this witness missed the period when Brown would have been either surrendering or charging.

Just had David Miller as a guest on CNN who teaches urban survival.....including this flow-diagram he developed.






Now to me....all of this seems like cmmon sense. The stuff you automatically know.....from being brought up to understand the concept of rerspect - especially for those public servants charged with community safety.

Not sure how much will help thieves (like Brown) and other thugs....they should have their own flow chart!

Like the guy preaching about changing instead of looting, rioting and marching over injustice. Miller won't get his point across, too many don't want it that way.

I was listening to this at lunch but didn't catch it all. I thought he said he did not hear any shots but he was supposed to be looking out his window. That's one sound proof apartment.

I commend Mr. Miller for trying to help. There is a generation of young men in America - and don't think they're all black or inner city, either - who grew up without a father figure to stabilize the home, with more negative than positive role models, and without due restraint. I know he won't reach them all, but if Mr. Miller can reach a few with basic civics lessons, then he has whatever blessings I can give him.
