Grand jury reaches decision in Ferguson case (Announcement Monday night)

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

But anyway, I'd say that it's fairly clear that the police have gone out of their way to provoke a riot tonight.

Surely this isn't a surprise

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I can't believe that was once me.

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

Well, looks like our Southern posters are really pulling out all the stops tonight.

...

Only one Southerner in this thread has been racist?

I don't think they were referring the the sole white liberal who lives in Mississippi.

it's their way of celebrating.  we won, let's smash some heads.

Looks like your pearl clutching is once again totally inaccurate! One douche=a whole part of the nation?

[Vega]

Good to hear. Wilson's life is ruined, but yeah.

He should have specified, and said Southern White Girls, like Dixie.

[Mehmentum]

Disappointing.  At the very least this deserved to go to trial, even if only for a manslaughter charge.  I can only hope this triggers major reforms in our law enforcement.

[Suburbia]

Wasn't surprised by the decision. Jay Nixon's political future after this is probably over, the Missouri Democrats will have to make a new bond with the AA community in St. Louis.

[World politics is up Schmitt creek]

I hope this can trigger major reforms in our law enforcement.

Of course it will do nothing of the sort.

I don't think they were referring the the sole white liberal who lives in Mississippi.

In addition to me, other non-racist Southerners who posted in the thread include memphis, semocrat, Adam Griffin, badgate, Lief, Duke, jdb, BushOklahoma, Sanchez*, Nagas, and Jerry.

Then one racist Southerner also posted, along with a racist from Ohio. Yet that translates to the "our Southern posters are really pulling out all the stops tonight?" That's absurd.


* - I think he used to be racist but has recanted or something? Regardless, he didn't post anything racist in this thread.

[Rockefeller GOP]

Reminder that black people are seen as monsters by the majority of whites and any force against them will always be seen as justified.

True. Don't you think there's a reason for that?

Ugh.  Your avatar is so embarrassing to every other board Republican.

[publicunofficial]

I'm sure bills trying to prevent more incidents like this will pass no problem though all the Republican controlled legislatures in this nation.

Jay Nixon can go  himself.

starting to get some good property destruction going



reportedly the crowd broke into the corner shop where Brown was prior to the shooting... "looting", but impressively symbolic looting.

[7,052,770]

Anyone who uses tonight as a smokescreen to loot or steal (and it is a very tiny % of the protesters out there, despite what conservative outlets will have you believe) should and will be punished to the fullest extent of the law. They are just as scummy as the prosecutor.

looks like the cops have to devote all of their resources to protecting the station so the crowds will have their way for a while.  hopefully they can get their hands on some useful things.. plenty secured a stock of alcohol and cigs.

OK.  Stuff like this will only deliver the MO governorship to the GOP in 2016.

[Indy Texas]

I think I'm going to go exercise my White Male Privilege now and drive to a neighborhood where I don't live and proceed to wonder around aimlessly in the dark.

Or maybe I'll go to a shopping center and loiter in the parking lot.

I'll be sure to keep track of all the police who don't stop me and all the people who don't react to all the suspicious behavior that they're not noticing.

[Person Man]

Tonight is just another instantiation of the Scorpion and the Frog.

lol, booze and cigs are so cheap in STL that it's barely worth looting. I doubt tonight will even surpass Vancouver 2011.

[Mr. Smith]

Congratulations Ferguson, officially the mos racially ed up city since 50's Money, Mississippi or '60's Philadelphia, Mississippi.
