From the print-

"The anger and frustration that are seething under the surface in this country have reached a boiling point. Instead of coming together, we are seemingly more divided than ever. Americans have been trained to hate one another, fear one another and blame one another. I fear that we are not too far away from actually becoming ungovernable".

The following article is a good read. Causes pause.

I recall the LA riots and how, like Obama, Mayor Bradley blew the dog whistle and handed out matches instead of needles and condoms.

Look at Katrina aftermath. More of the same culture doing the same illegal crap.

Guest Post: Did They Want More Violence In Ferguson? 10 'Coincidences' Too Glaring To Ignore

Was it a conspiracy or was it incompetence? Those appear to be the only two alternatives that we are left with after the horrific violence that we witnessed in Ferguson on Monday night. The first round of Ferguson rioting back in August took everyone by surprise, but this time authorities had more than three months to prepare. They had the ability to control precisely when the grand jury decision would be announced and how many cops and National Guard troops would be deployed on the streets. But despite all this, the violence in Ferguson on Monday night was even worse than we witnessed back in August.

Either this was a case of almost unbelievable incompetence, or there was someone out there that actually wanted this to happen. If someone out there is actually trying to provoke more violence in Ferguson, then the rioters are being played like a fiddle. Most of them have no idea that they could potentially just be pawns in a game that is far larger than they ever imagined. The only other alternative to explain what we just saw is incompetence on a level that is absolutely laughable. Something definitely does not smell right about all of this, and let us hope that at some point the American people get the truth.

The following are 10 “coincidences” from Monday night in Ferguson that are too glaring to ignore…

#1 Federal, state and local law enforcement authorities had more than three months to prepare for the violence that would follow the announcement of the grand jury decision. The mainstream media endlessly hyped this controversy and everyone knew that trouble would be brewing. But despite an enormous amount of time to prepare, very little was actually done to prevent any violence from happening.

#2 Someone made the decision to make the public announcement about the grand jury decision in the evening. Anyone involved in law enforcement knows that crowd control is far more difficult after dark. This also ensured that instead of being tied up with work or school, a maximum number of protesters would be able to be involved in the violence.

#3 Fortunately for the mainstream media, the announcement of the grand jury decision was perfectly timed to provide the largest possible number of prime time viewers for the big news networks.

#4 Just like back in August, no law enforcement authorities of any kind responded while dozens of businesses were vandalized, looted and set of fire.

#5 According to Ferguson Mayor James Knowles, National Guard troops were purposely held back from intervening in the rioting that was unleashed when the grand jury decision was made known to the public…

In a press conference, he called the delay “deeply concerning” and said the Guard troops were available but were not deployed when city officials asked.

The troops had been readied last week by Gov. Jay Nixon as the grand jury announcement neared. But as gunshots rang out in the night and looters torched buildings, they were nowhere to be seen.

No, it's because morons like you are too stupid to learn from mistakes made by other cities.

Los Angeles was the proving ground for how not to handle a riot and public disorder. Announcement in the middle of the day, tens of thousands (if not millions) of people still on the streets just tying to get home, and as you'll recall, people pulled from their cars and beaten and store owners getting into shoot outs with the rioters.

#2 Someone made the decision to make the public announcement about the grand jury decision in the evening. Anyone involved in law enforcement knows that crowd control is far more difficult after dark.

This is probably the dumbest thing you've ever said and for you, that is saying quite a bit.

The benefits to waiting until after dark is that you don't have a bunch of people on the road caught in transit, you give businesses time to close. You gave the courts (which use a large number of officers) to have their dockets heard THEN you get to use their officers for crowd control, officers who have to show up to give testimony are able to do that then hit the streets, there are much fewer public works (traffic) projects going on during the evenings so they are free from traffic control duties as well.

As for the "maximum number of protestors"...yeah and? In Ferguson that means another 1,000 people or so? Of which maybe 100 are protestors? BIg deal. Stupid argument from a moron.

#3 Fortunately for the mainstream media, the announcement of the grand jury decision was perfectly timed to provide the largest possible number of prime time viewers for the big news networks.
Factually incorrect. Optimum time is 6:30 EST. The announcement came some 50 minutes later. The "big news" networks cut into programming for something like 20 minutes.

#4 Just like back in August, no law enforcement authorities of any kind responded while dozens of businesses were vandalized, looted and set of fire.
First responder safety comes first followed by critical infrastructure. Another mistake they made in LA.

#5 According to Ferguson Mayor James Knowles, National Guard troops were purposely held back from intervening in the rioting that was unleashed when the grand jury decision was made known to the public…

This is because the guard troops would not roll unless attached to local PD. The Local PDs were not undergoing normal ops during these periods. The National Guard isn't geared for law enforcement.

The only thing too large to ignore is how silly this thread is.
 
Well, im gonna say its taking advantage of incompetence i mean how many people do you think each news orginaization has in the white house and the city of fergueson? Im betting they each have at least one and simply planned accordingly rather than report to the authorities.

LMAO.. The argument is not when things got torched, is the fact that, things got torched.

. Factually incorrect- Last I checked relative to optimum time is Obama must not be speaking often in 'optimum time' considering its 9 Eastern
