I can't even bring myself to comment at some of the comment in this article. There are posters on there making excuses for the white kids rioting and bringing up past examples like Wood stock but yet we're all of a sudden the bad guys?

I feel like freaking screaming right now

1. This might make a better point

Hooligans *hmph* thugs

2. Thugs had it coming

They should have been nicer and more docile and that wouldn't have happened.

3. The British Unleased Colonel Tye

He busted a cap in NJ's ass!



They shouldn't have protested the way they did and he wouldn't have shot them!

4. I betcha some people think

This guy was a thug too

6. They called him every name in the book when he was alive.

Now they feel all self-righteous in honoring his legacy once a year.

Or, as we both remember well, bringing up his name without understanding anything beyond a meme or two. Some things never change. Especially smug self-righteous jibber jabber.

Hope you enjoy a great weekend.

7. They have been busting out the MLK memes all over my Facebook today.

Same ones who turn around and demand that the police crack down violently on any protests by black people

10. Thanks

GOTV for Congressional candidate tomorrow.

Corey Booker had a righteous post yesterday morning on FB giving stats/polling information from the Civil Rights movement. Folks perceptions were the same 50/55 years ago as today.

5. Hell, I can't even bring myself to read lots of that crap.

I suppose I will now. But you know the feeling. It's kind of like 'Hey, this milk smells bad. Here, smell it.' Ugh!

I hope you have a good weekend.

8. Don't Go Read 'racism lite' and Start Your Weekend Off Wrong

Because that's what it is. If a european american can't understand why minorities in the US might get angry over multiple killings of their people by the state they're purposely being ignorant.

9. You're kidding

Racism life. I don't even want to know
