I've been reading comments about it all morning. They range from somewhat ignorant to downright disgusting.

Arson, rioting and looting your own community ain't exactly a good way to curry favor/empathy with White America. To me, it strengthens my view that policing a seemingly lawless place like Ferguson is a tough and unforgiving business.
