Our police and military should be on the border with their laser dots fixed on the invaders.

We don't need the press anymore. The elected officials will give us the news instead via public announcement.
(and that is what seems to be happening).
"Outside agitators". Where have I heard that term before?

P.S. Note the source is MSNBC.

Dear god, the cop put a couple rounds in him pt. blank PER HIS OWN FRIENDS TESTIMONY and you don't even know this? He then ran a bit, tried to surrender and got shot some more. (again per his friend) and you are questioning how I know this? SERIOUSLY? Really dude, wth. Wth is wrong with your post?

Please respond, tell us all how we should completely discount his friends testimony?
I hope the videos taken bring out the truth.

Those invaders are the next crop of permanent underclass to be kept poor, welfare dependent, and undereducated...who do you think the soldier-cops are making room for?

The problem is, where the good go, the bad follow.

This will just make the next attempt at gun control even less supported and more unpopular with the voters. People will want guns to protect themselves from the lawless( that the authorities can't or won't stop) as well as to protect themselves from abuse by the authorities.
Global Warming: Rejected
Gun Control: Rejected.
Illegal Immigration: Being Rejected. If Obama supports it, it can't be good.
We have all these fed drones, why aren't they using them to video these rioters and looters? It won't be long until they use drones to disperse these crowds, I imagine.

The right didn't and still are not protesting the Patriot Act. It's just the opposite.

Do you even understand what the traditional role of the press is? The eyes and ears of the people. They are the ones that go to the dull city council meetings and let us know what is said. They are the ones who hit the mean streets of Ferguson to tell the story of events happening so you don't have to. They are the ones who ask the uncomfortable questions to those in power so you can sit at home on your sofa watching "Three and a Half Men" and still learn what policies are being made that effect your life.

Granted, the system ain't perfect and like any other business there are good operators and employees and bad ones but when they take a shot of tear gas FOR YOU, try and show a little respect.

The people protested it. The elected officials on both sides passed it and continue to renew each and every items that expires with no debate at all and has been signed by the President.

The original Patriot Act was written and passed with expiring parts.
Our government is not letting them expire.
