Waiting for the FBI to pay Ms. Cunha here a visit for inciting and supporting violence....
this is basically a recognition among blacks that post Obama, people are finding it harder and harder to feel sorry for black people.
Ferguson hoopla is an attempt to renew their status as Historically Aggrieved Party.
Would she say this if conservatives were rioting about something, about some aspect of “mainstream culture” - Obamacare or gay marriage or abortion - to which they objected, and for which they are now in some cases receiving civil and criminal penalties? Hell, no.
Yeah, like MLK Jr.
"I've been searching for a long time for an alternative to riots on the one hand and timid supplication for justice on the other and I think that alternative is found in militant massive non-violence." - Martin Luther King, Jr., March 14, 1968, at Grosse Pointe High School
So, when a powerful Congresswoman says, “You have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it” and the people feel marginalized, we should riot?
When a black leader says, “elections have consequences, we won” and white people feel threatened, we should riot?
When the EPA shuts down a coal mine, should people riot?
Don’t know why people here like to point out what garbage, dieing mags say about anything.

I’m surprised they still bother to publish TIME.
This from the dingbat who drove her Mercedes Benz to pick up food stamps.

This little refrain so misdescribes what happened. Yet the dingbats and racial arsonists continue to use it.
Why is it inevitable? Do circumstances around the shooting mean nothing? Is this statement actually an indictment of the minority races that they are unable to control their emotions? That blind revenge is their only driving force? That blacks must be coddled and treated as 'special' cases? Had Officer Wilson been killed instead, would that have given caucasians license to riot and burn? Do black lives matter -more- than caucasian lives? How is that 'equality' and not out and out racism?
Uh...no. Peaceful protesting is "available" to everyone.
And protesting is not a "luxury".
You really have to wonder if there isn’t a script for this that has been handed to the MSM with the intention of creating a national race war to justify martial law. It remains to be seen whether they can fan the flames enough to reach the desired objective.
Maybe not to a liberal journalist living hundreds of miles away.
But let's go to Ferguson and ask those minority business-owners who saw their livelihoods burned to the grounds and their neighbors who now have no place to shop for groceries.
When a police officer shoots a young, unarmed black man in the streets, then does not face indictment, anger in the community is inevitable.
No doubt this libtard is writing her column from the safety of some gated community in Florida. If she had to deal with what most urban police officers deal with on a daily basis, she would off herself.
