No one ever said he was from Ferguson, did they? I thought it was pretty clear he wasn't from Ferguson. And what outside interest group do you think this pastor is working for? You know he speaks the truth and you have no valid response, so you try to discredit him.

The police should have protected business, shot looters & left protestors alone.

If any of you think the street coppers didnt want to go in there and arrest every looter think again... it is the politicians that held them back,,, and are calling the tactical operational guidelines

During the L.A riots I gave shopkeepers ammo... and the guardsmen... who were deployed without ammo because the politicians feared they would shoot the looters .. Poor guys standing at intersections in the middle of the ghetto without loaded guns.

All I could do was apologize.... to the citizens,,,

Day three of the L.A riots they actually let us start doing our jobs and thousands were arrested that day (liberal judges let 90 percent of them go with just a warning)

Ferguson isnt L.A... and we watched some administrators way in over their heads not prepared for such an event ... and its hard to prepare for in a smaller town/ force... there was also horrible public relations and public information... incident command seemed to have broken down.. then all the personalities (police/politicians) inserting themselves personally into the fervor... making it worse.. what we saw and are seeing is how NOT to handle an explosive community situation

We will see huge changes.. people will be fired ...new policies will be imposed...oversight will be announced... minority hiring will be pushed (probably by lowering standards) and the politicians will announce success at some point

In reality I doubt much will change because all the underlying problems will still be there.. racism.. poverty.. thugsters.. drugs.. media.. on an on

If it was Los Angeles it would be just another riot.. been there done that.. and there will be another one

Terrorists love this,, divide and conquer our country from within
