Bert: National Democrats really don\u2019t want to have this conversation because, ultimately, they don\u2019t want to deal with blacks. They just want them to vote on election day and stay dumb and happy for the rest of the year. The days of white politicians loudly demanding justice for black rioters, criminals, and rapists are over and not coming back.<\/p>\n

Big Bill says: Holder has left Ferguson now, hasn\u2019t he? He pressed the flesh with a few preachers and college kids. What else is there to do?<\/p>\n

The FBI is poring over the Ferguson PD books to find any Federal civil rights offenses, but Holder doesn\u2019t have to sit around and wait on them to do their job. He\u2019s just going to bury it anyway. No reason to stir up another sh!tstorm with an election coming up.<\/p>\n

And Holder damn sure isn\u2019t going to risk meeting the rappers that are piling into Ferguson to do street rap or the agitators from out-of-state. No telling what they might say out loud.<\/p>\n

By now the local Negro population figures it got in a couple good licks at the white folks and are getting tired of the curfews and out-of-town trash, cops and FBI wandering around the hood.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile some fool bruthas are planning a demonstration at the White House. Holder better be back in town for that.<\/p>\n

Things do look like they are winding down now.<\/p>\n

Rusty writes: No commentator yet has really pointed out that the people involved in these riots from Mike Brown on down really just aren\u2019t that bright. I think this is the first time that I\u2019ve even heard them called out for burning down the QT (an estimated 7 figure loss) for the wrong reason. And that\u2019s maybe the single most important factor at play here. I don\u2019t know if the town hall meeting with the Missouri governor received national coverage, but it played out pretty much like a deleted scene from Idiocracy. Al Sharpton came to town and angrily called for more jobs for black youth, amidst the smoking ruins of Ferguson\u2019s business district which had just recently been annihilated by the region\u2019s black youth. The real problem for the area\u2019s black youth is that too large a percentage of them have felony convictions, elaborate ink work on their necks and faces, and a family history that stretches back generations without a father in the house or a job in the family. And there\u2019s not much that the rev can do about that.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been divided between enjoying watching the whole thing unravel and the fact that I actually know the people and places involved. You know that the media outlets bend things to suit their audiences, but it\u2019s an amazing thing to see it play out first hand. There won\u2019t be anything funny about the aftermath for Ferguson, though. It\u2019ll be just one more toxic ghetto in the Loo that \u201cused to be nice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere are National Republicans on Ferguson?\u201d<\/p>\n

Shouldn\u2019t GOP be standing up for businessmen attacked by rioters?
\nWhite cops slandered by black thugs?
\nWhite people attacked by blacks?
\nBlack Holder and other demagogues abusing power?<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s only silence.<\/p>\n

Suppose a black cop had shot a white thug who\u2019d racially intimidated an immigrant businessman and then charged the officer. Suppose \u2018white trash\u2019 thugs went on a rampage.
\nNational Democrats would go nuts over it.<\/p>\n

But National Republicans are so browbeaten by charges of \u2018racism\u2019 by the globo-elites that they don\u2019t even stand up for their natural constituencies. Instead, we have guys like Rand Paul trying to turn this into a libertarian issue when, in fact, militarization of police(as worrying as it is as a separate issue)had nothing to do with Brown\u2019s thuggery and the cop\u2019s response to him.
\nWilson didn\u2019t run over Brown with a tank. He used a pistol\u2013something cops had forever\u2013to quell someone who was out of control.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
