So the disproportionate profiling of blacks had nothing to do with it? LMFAO
Again, Fit... Do you know ANYTHING about this area? NO... So quit acting like you know how "disproportionate" anything is.
Hell, I'll take you to a nearby community that's over 85% black.. and has blacks in every major city position, and THEY'RE charging/arresting/fining blacks at a "disproportionate" rate too.
But I don't hear one damn word about Pine Lawn, MO.
So NO, disproportionate profiling had _ZERO_ to do with it...

No kidding. Most of these jizzwhistles think the Police deserved it. I don't believe all of these minority residents of Ferguson are that stupid. They are being manipulated by professional out of town agitators.
They have one hell of a payroll. Someone bankrolls Them..............Wonder which political party ?
Well it isn't the party that wants to keep the black man down that's for sure. These people aren't stupid, they know who the enemy is.
No...They are stupid....They vote for the enemy that keeps them enslaved.
Obama On #Ferguson Shooting Of Police: “What Happened In Ferguson Was Oppressive And Objectionable And Worthy Of Protest”
Notice how he didn’t actually answer Kimmel’s first question, was the shooting painful to him?
Yes, you read that right. He then spent most of the time talking about how protest was justified because of racism. He’s just afraid that this shooting might detract from the cause. He also doesn’t say “Hands up don’t shoot” was a lie.
Quote:President Barack Obama made his first public comments about the shooting of two Ferguson, Missouri police officers during his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live Thursday night.
“What had been happening in Ferguson was oppressive and objectionable and was worthy of protest,” Obama told host Jimmy Kimmel, according to The New York Times. “But there was no excuse for criminal acts.”
The president also participated in Kimmel’s signature “Mean Tweets” segment, relaying one message about himself that read, “Is there any way we could fly Obama to some golf course halfway around the world and just leave him there?”
As Kimmel had hinted earlier, he asked Obama about Area 51 and possible existence of alien life. “I can’t reveal anything,” he said, adding of President Bill Clinton’s suggestion that he found nothing of interest in those files after taking office, “That’s what we’re instructed to say.”

Our Dear Leader talks about the policeman who were shot for about 5 seconds...and then he only says "we don't know what happened".
The rest is the poor oppressed "black"people of Ferguson. Racists cops and Obama blowing his own horn about "Selma". This is just spin for Obama's legacy as the one true heir to MLK. It is such bullshiite.
Buck Flack Lives Matter... and it's leadership. Over it.

He refuses to answer the question about peaceful response or “by any means necessary”. He’s playing Malcolm X, which makes sense since he is Nation of Islam.
Quote:A man identifying himself as John C. Muhammad, the City Manager of Uplands Park, MO, said that the shooting of two police officers in Ferguson was “a complete setup” carried out by the police on Thursday’s “Hannity” on the Fox News Channel.
“I think it was a complete setup. I think it was a setup between members of the police fraternities, what I like to call it. I think they operate just like the KKK. I think they did it to make themselves think they’re the victim, when honestly the victim are black people. I think it’s just a publicity stunt. No more than that” he stated. Although, he later clarified that this was solely his position, and not necessarily that of his constituents.

This ******* is a "city manager" of a village of 425 people... Yeah, that's how big the Upland Parks 'city' is, so excuse me if I don't give a damn what this idiot thinks.

I hope you aren't saying black people are stupid.
I can guarantee you many are, just like there are stupid people of every race/ethnicity. Welcome to the real world.

He isn't a "City Manager"-- he's a Village Clerk that's now suspended from his job.

That's a very derogatory thing to say. They might be uneducated but that doesn't mean they are stupid.
Sorry Fit, but sometimes the truth hurts as there are stupid people are everywhere. Again, welcome to the real world. Notice I'm not singling out any particular group.
O and Holder brought this on by not being clear enough and focusing on the fact that Wilson did nothing wrong and that the common narrative of Brown having his hands up was flat out wrong. Hell, O is still encouraging protests. I'd like to know exactly what he thinks should be protested. I've listened to his carefully worded comments and he remains as vague as possible knowing people will interpret them as they want to.
The situation in Ferguson has been meddled in by everyone from local, state, and federal and we are no closer to anything being resolved. What we are closer to though, is continued flaming of the fires by protestors for no reason. Seriously. What do they want? The Chief of Police they hated resigned, and so they were there in front of the police headquarters getting all fired up about that and two policemen who had nothing to do with the situation nearly get killed.
Where's the Justice Dept for an investigation into the protestors? They're the ones that are perpetually stoking the violence here.
Ferguson Mayor Slams Eric Holder’s “Hostile Language” For Inflaming Tensions…
And by hostile he means Holder doing his best Al Sharpton impression.
Quote:Ferguson Mayor James Knowles has been speaking out quite a bit since the release of last week’s DOJ report on racially-motivated police practices, questioning some of its conclusions and “assertions.”
But in an interview on NPR’s All Things Considered today, Knowles isn’t particularly happy with some of the double-talk he’s been witnessing from the Justice Department.
For one, Attorney General Eric Holder recently said he won’t rule out “dismantling” the Ferguson police if that’s what needs to be done. Knowles responded, “My understanding is that he does not have the power to dismantle the Ferguson Police Department.”
The mayor also claimed, “There continues to be hostile language coming out of the Justice Department––or rather, from Eric Holder specifically.” When asked to elaborate, Knowles said he has very different conversations with the DOJ in private:
When Law Enforcement ID's the Shooter Suspect, it might not be very pretty. I anticipate the Feds will handle the apprehension. The Locals might get a bit too hmm.."rough"..

How do you even respond to that? The arrogance this guy speaks with is phenomenal.
Watch the video, much more to it.
John Muhammad: City Worker Posing As City Manager Of Uplands Park, MO Suspended For Saying #Ferguson Shooting Was A ‘Setup’ …
Media didn't even bother to check his credentials....
Quote:A city employee in the Saint Louis suburb of Uplands Park, Missouri, has lost his job after claiming that the shooting of two police officers during recent protests in Ferguson was a “setup,” Fox News is reporting.
Last week, protests took place in Ferguson, Missouri, following the Justice Department’s release of a scathing indictment of the police department in the Saint Louis suburb, where unarmed black teenager Mike Brown was shot and killed by a white police officer. During those protests, two police officers were shot and seriously injured; both are expected to recover.
On Thursday night’s edition of The Sean Hannity Show, John Muhammad, identifying himself as the city manager of Uplands Park, Missouri, appeared on the show and claimed that the shooting was a setup.[…]
Michel Spurling, chairman of the Uplands Park board of trustees, tells KPLR that, first of all, John Muhammad was never the city manager of Uplands Park — he was a clerk.
When confronted with this information, Muhammad responded that the “confusion” over his title is no big deal.
“I’m not caught up on titles or anything like that. My official title is city administrator. If he says it’s clerk, then I guess it’s clerk.”
Spurling told KPLR that the board of trustees has since suspended Muhammad from his job, pending a meeting scheduled for Monday to determine whether or not to fire him. Fox News, however, is reporting that Muhammad has already been fired.
Muhammad claims that his firing (or suspension) is a violation of his First Amendment rights to free speech.
“I think people had a misconception of what I said. I made a statement under the first amendment of the constitution freedom of speech; that’s what I said.”
