Over an hour ago, the decision was handed down. Now there is violence, widespread looting and chaos general in the streets. So I must ask, where do you stand?
More to consider yet, do you see now what identity politics has done to America? I must ask some of you why you support one party who uses race to inflame anger among a race of people for political benefit? Do you now see how much it has torn this nation apart? What you see in Ferguson is a microcosm of the handiwork of race politics and people like Al Sharpton attempting to stir animosity among Americans.
I don't condone it, but I understand it.
White people didn't go along with civil rights because MLK talked about passive resistance.
They went along because Malcolm X threatened to burn the country to the ground.
If people like Al Sharpton exist, it's because black children can be shot in the middle of the street with no consequences - Trayvon, Michael Brown, that kid who got shot in Cleveland over the weekend. I think he was 12.
Not to mention, he apparently was attacking a police officer. Officers are trained to STOP the attacker in the best interests of the safety of the community, any innocent bystanders, as well as themselves. They take aim at center mass of the body. They don't fool around and are not going to shoot a potentially dangerous perp in the arm or something.
