If a country enslaved me, put me on the back of the bus, discriminated against my ability to provide for me and my family I'd say FU too.

Guess that joke when over a few people's head in here. Putting a flag upside down is the sign of distress. I was making fun of the fact that they were probably using the flag wrong because they weren't in distress.

So no, that was not a deflection.

Yeah, and how many former slaves do you think were at that protest? And I'm sure they were all allowed to sit anywhere on the bus they pleased, right up until 10th grade when many likely dropped out of school and stopped taking the bus. And I'd say the good ol' US of A provides for as many of their families as they do

Did that happened to anybody you know or even heard of? Were the protesters enslaved and riding in the back of the bus?

First off it is Philli so that means all of them are messed up, you do know where I live don't you, there is no love lose between our cities.
But if you want a specific answer to where I stood on the Brown issue, you might want to do some research before Once Again Assuming you know my stand on an issue, but since you are obviously too lazy to do any such thing I will clarify my stand on that specific issue:
I do not believe there is any evidence that shows the police officer did anything wrong in the shooting death of Mr. Brown.
There, clear it up for You?

One question is this. Why were there people shouting obscenities at people chanting "USA"? One thing no one has not asked.
