Yes facts are good. "Everyone!" Gtownoe should try waiting for them.

What do YOU do to help inner city communities? Or distressed people in general?
What do "those people" do to help themselves? Why do they wait for someone else? These same people claim it's too hard to do something as simple as obtaining a voter ID. How can we expect that they will do what it takes to "legally" help themselves.

What do I do? I teach interview skills and life skills to women who have escaped abusive relationships and have been through a life skills training program to teach them white collar, office related skills so they can move out of low paying jobs.
I volunteer at our local food bank.
Among other things. I'm not going to list all the things I do, because I'm not here to brag. But I have lived in the projects before, I've been in an abusive situation before, I've lived IN A COMMUNITY much like the one Mike Brown lived in, and I know what and who perpetrates a cycle of poverty.
[quote=texan2yankee;36125551]I read Brown had no prior adult record. "#STL County Prosecutors office confirms that Michael Brown had no adult criminal record."{/QUOTE]
That's their way of saying he had a juvenile record, but they can't talk about it.

Well, he certainly didn't waste any time trying to establish an adult record for himself. Barely 18 and already robbing stores and assaulting police officers. Clearly a good kid.
The only murder/killing there this year has been Mike Brown's.
I'm tired of hearing the "1 mistake" argument made for one, but not for the other. If Brown could have made, 1 mistake than so could the officer.
What the protesters are demanding is not impossible. It's VERY possible. Transparency is what the people want. Body cameras on officers and an Independent Investigative body. That's not too much to ask.
Especially when we're spending billions elsewhere to help people.
Murders have a lot of variability. Ferguson had none yet this year, but eight last year and six the year before that. Or course , it is also important to note that Ferguson stopped publishing individual crime reports last year....
So now he has priors even though the Chief said he had no priors. Simply because someone on here said it so.
Only facts please.
ONLY FACTS PLEASE?
I ASKED FOR PEOPLE TO WAIT FOR FACTS LAST WEEK AND YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SAID?
YOU CALLED ME A RACIST.
Calming down now? Seeing how the facts aren't all on your side? Oooooh now we need to just weigh facts!
I'm not dumb enough *cough* to comment further for fear of getting an infraction.
