This is why the founding fathers opposed democracy.

Danged if I can remember where in the pledge of allegiance it says “...and to the democracy for which it stands.” Oh, wait. It doesn’t say that. Guess when it was written, somebody never got the memo and stuck that old troublesome word REPUBLIC in there instead.

I wonder how the MSM will report it when majority-white communities expect to have police depts which “reflect the community”. Not really, but then I don’t expect that many majority white communities will have the gumption to make the demand.

“You’ve lost your authority to govern this community,” said St. Louis activist John Chasnoff. “You’re going to have to step aside peacefully if this community is going to heal.”

What? The City Council didn’t shoot Brown.

Maybe the police should stage a mass strike for a month in Ferguson, they’ll be on the job but no arrests, no policing Ferguson just show up and do desk duty.

They will never adjust to a civil society.

Poorly written inflammatory article.

They stopped blacks twice as often as Whites...duh. Blacks make up 70% of the population. Whites less than 30% ...

Oh, there's that White math thing again.

[NoLibZone]

How many blacks have applied to be LEO’s?

How many were turned down and why?

Ferguson, a city of 21,000, is about 70 percent black. Its 53-member police department has just three black officers. The mayor and five of the six City Council members are white.

A 2013 report by the Missouri attorney general's office found that Ferguson police stopped and arrested black drivers nearly twice as often as white motorists, but were less likely to find contraband among the black drivers.

what's the issue here ? seems proportional to me.

It was exactly this appeasement of the mob that led to king Louis XVI losing his head - literally.

More fun in Playful City USA.

[Republican1795.]

People are surprised when they find out that the word “democracy” is nowhere in the Constitution.

[Bullish]

I think we need to just have all-black everything for these people and then whites can just stay away from those areas. One caveat.... They have to stay away from the all-white areas too.

They’re just completely ridiculous at this point so I’m just responding in kind.
