Two years later, Ferguson is still here

I went to high school in St. Louis and have family there. St. Louis is about as racist as a city can be.

I've seen them actually play chicken, moving repeatedly back into the path of the vehicle trying to avoid them.
We may eventually find out why this guy was stupid enough to stand in the road.

When people have no hope, many will turn to booze, or drugs, or crime, or a combination thereof.

Your oeuvre here on PC confirms my point. If you had even once posted something which showed black people in a positive light, or white people in a negative light, you might be able to sell this line of crap.

You're stuck in your stereotypes again my friend. The thread was about what's happening in Ferguson. This is what's happening in Ferguson.
I've commented before that there's way less racism than the media wants to hype, and that blacks have integrated thoroughly in all classes of society, and that most of us have blacks in our immediate family. I've also pointed out that most blacks are honest, honorable people just like any other ethnicity.
You will not find a comment by me stereotyping any race or ethnicity, except maybe a joke comment about the Irish being lushes or something equally innocuous.
No need for me to make comments of white people in a negative light, there are plenty here who will cover that angle. However, I won't hesitate to point out a white idiot when I see one either. Hillary letting the mass murderer's Daddy in her camera shot would be a good example of some white idiot action.

Unfortunately for you, it is easy to read between the lines of your posts a decipher their true intent.

Projection much?

In other news, Tennessee lost the first TBI Agent In our states history. A black agent was killed by the hands of another black man. I'm sure it's not important to BLM since a white man didn't do it.

Why the racial resentment there?

BLM calls for concern for black lives when others are 'shouting' that they don't care. So they won't need to draw attention to this case, will they?

Racial resentment? Just stating a fact. If a white man had killed him you and I both know that it'd be on every mainstream outlet putting other news aside in order to add fuel to the fire to give themselves an even bigger story to cover. Anyone can see that.
