I'm sure you can't believe I said it, because to call most of what took place a feral mob, requires one to look at events objectively, rather than ignoring everything which fails to support one's pre-determined agenda...

In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, the DOJ hadn't done their investigation yet, so there was no widespread knowledge that there were issues in Ferguson. The only thing people were protesting was the shooting, no the general culture of profiling in the department. If people were upset about the department in general, why weren't they protesting all along? Why did it only start after Sharpton came in and got the feral mob sufficiently foaming at the mouth?

I don't see anyone giving today's version of the "I have a dream speech" here. I saw feral mayhem, ignorant calls for the officer to be arrested (who cares about due process? Constitution, shmonstitution...) idiots holding their hands up in solidarity with the perceived "victim". Once Sharpton got his disgusting face in front of a sufficient number of cameras, he fled, leaving his flock behind to deal with the aftermath. Kudos to him...Maybe Obama will give him a medal. Those two really, truly, genuinely, deserve each other.
