In other news from the low end of the bellcurve:

FBI arrests two would-be Ferguson bomb suspects: law enforcement source | Reuters

Here's a tip. Anyone trying to sell you bombs is 98% likely to be a fed.... when they accept EBT you can be 100% certain it's a setup.

I wonder if these would-be revolutionaries have the forward-time orientation to consider if they actually could succeed in taking down the system with pipe bombs bought with their girlfriend's food stamps what would they do to support themselves?

i saw all i need to know on cnn the night the residients of ferguson decided to destroy their own town because a white cop killed a black man, even though anyone of them would of done the same thing if they were in his situation. if a black guy would of shot him we would never of even heard about it.

There is a completely valid argument to be made that the police are militarized in the way they are armed, and trained. The Ferguson rioters aren't a part of any intelligent debate, or a part of any real cause for changing the system they riot against. They riot because they have been trained to hate, and told they are right to hate, and continue to violently hate regardless of any emerging facts. This makes them irrelevant to any solution on police militarization and invasive government over reach. They think they are fighting the good fight, but they sabotage that very cause with ignorant hate and a lack of any knowledge of the actual cause they fight for. The big picture got burned up

TIL, that petty crime justifies murder

lol

If you've ever ran a redlight or stop sign, you deserve to be shot.

oh and to the asshats that keep commenting on this "violent robbery" that he committed, Darren knew nothing about that when he confronted him

furthermore

Broken orbital socket

Darren

and also can ANYONE explain to me how a someone holding cigars manages to both assault an officer AND reach for his gun simultaneously?

And then in the middle of the struggle, STOP to hand his friend the cigars then continue to assault the officer.

Someone walk me through that please

Why bother explaining anything to you you obviously already made up your mind to support someone who's COMIITED FELONY ROBBERY and attempted murder of a peace officer . Like the other 4-5 asshats on this thread you're as much a part of the problem as Brown. Facts don't mean **** to you /shrug. Go on hating "the man" and complaining and the rest of us law abiding citizens will go on with our lives laughing at what retards you trolls are.

Confirmation bias, also called myside bias, is the tendency to search for, interpret, or remember information in a way that confirms one's beliefs or hypotheses. We all search for facts that confirm the belief we already have. Facts are insignificant. We vote this way, do this with our religions, and we do this with things we hate. pick the facts you want and discard the rest.

my questions are, why do the ones getting in trouble decide to always think they can "run" and get away. it does **** the things that happened. you have to ask, "why did michael brown decide to fight back? why does he think he needs to?" if he was doing nothing wrong then he would be alive today because he would have listened to the officers and obeyed what they are telling him. i am not for police in any form but i always ask myself when i see it on the news and cops....why did you run??? cause i was scared!!! so you always run when you are scared??? if an officer is pointing a gun at me and says "get down on the ground now" my basic intelligence has me on the ground as i do not want to get shot. apparently some think that they can outrun a bullet...guess what, you cant!!! basically it comes down to obeying the police officers and all "should" go just fine. when things go bad, its generally because the person in the wrong is fighting or trying to flee. riots, in my eyes, are just a bs reason for lower class people to go steal and do what ever they want. then they complain how the police did nothing. look at the firefighters trying to put out the fires and were getting shot at and having things thrown at them. WTF???? that city will never get rebuilt and it should not as the people of that town did it. you think the autozone will rebuild....prob not.... the people of Ferguson must feel that they are entitled to what they got when they started stealing from the businesses that they should be supporting. i hope all the ladies there got their weaves cause that beauty shop needed to get ransacked because it had everything to do with the shooting. all the people that are part of the looting/rioting are the same that voted for a black president and are complaining that he is doing nothing for their them. in my eyes, the ones rioting/looting are a bunch of lazy, no-good, ignorant people that think they deserve to riot even though it has nothing to do with their direct lives. just so they can say they were a part of the madness. what are the stupid *** hats going to do now when they need something from the places they burned to the ground? the step-father of mr.brown stated..."Burn this place down!!!"....seems to me that he is one of the causes of the rioting. funny how the ones rioting will be seeing the police all too soon as their faces and actions were all caught on tape for the nation to see...HELLO IGNORANCE, I LIVE RIGHT HERE IN FERGUSON AND I USED TO SHOP HERE BUT NOW I STEAL FROM HERE, NOW BURN THIS BUILDING DOWN. save the mcdonalds cause we need somewhere to eat. the only ones entitled to what is going on is the direct family of michael brown. even they did not want all this to happen other than his step-father. i do not believe that the entire city of Ferguson is entitled to do what they did. black people for some reason think that they are better than everyone else because they deserve to be which is most of the time incorrect. i have a strong feeling if mr. brown was approached by a black cop, things happening the same, would not be in the news at all. just another black on black crime which happens hundreds of times a day and they are not on the news. it is ****** how the news only looks at the crimes that are race related. that is a huge reason i stop watching the news. its all negative **** then about 1 min of squirrel's riding the skis in a pool...just my $.02 i hear about Ferguson and i start thinking that they brought all the bad upon themselves from the rioting/looting, good luck rebuilding. think ferguson will be back???...not anytime in the next decade. its the new detroit...sorry if you live in detroit...ferguson happened, now lets move on to the next racially motivated thing a white cop did to a black citizen. sorry if i ruffled some feathers and made some hate me but oh well. take it with grain of salt i guess or get some thicker skin.
