Ferguson is a shame. Race baiting, and arguements over what boils down to a cultural lack of empathy for their fellow human beings.
the cop was scarred of a big young black kid and panicked. He wasn't just following his training. he was scarred, and should not have been, not will be again...a cop.
the kid was not a little angel ready to go off to college. He just robbed a store, and attacked a cop.
A few hundred people riot and loot and burn their own community to get free stuff. Not for any other reason.
The media latches onto it because it makes good TV, everyone picks a side (both sides are the wrong side), and JW's lament "this old world".
I'm sure this will repeat itself several times over.
