Another major similarity to the Trayvon Martin shooting is the way the pack media attack the Police Chief. In Sanford Florida it was Bill Lee, in Ferguson Missouri it is Thomas Jackson. (more…)
Local police forces utilize military surplus equipment in an effort to keep the violence and mayhem in Ferguson under control. Update: The social media photo posted throughout the blogosphere was not confirmed as the deceased Michael Brown and has been replaced. -ytz
Just as the Trayvon Martin narrative unfolded, as independent bloggers and researchers enthusiastically scour social media a truer, more complete picture of Michael Brown emerges as Sharpton remains on site in an attempt to manage and direct the “narrative”.
Although earning praise from local authorities for his “official” calls for “peace”, Sharpton’s ability to manage the narrative has been called into question by by black and white observers keeping tabs on the ever evolving and fluid situation from outside of the area of conflict. (more…)
While the “Hands Up – Don’t Shoot” Justice looting for Mike Brown diminished overnight in Ferguson Missouri, the extreme elements of the violence continued their activity.
An overnight report via police scanners reflected a drive-by shooting. Early news reports confirm a woman was shot in the head as police called for additional assistance. Four suspects were being sought by police. One suspect was seen handcuffed and being loaded into a police unit.
A guest on the Michael Dyson show (a director of “Africana studies” at Lehigh University), calls the rioting “understandable” and a “red herring”.
The real issue underpinning the Brown shooting is the failure of the “system” and police officers, specifically….
“They can handle the riot and stop the riot and control the riot,” he said dismissively. “But the real question is can we get our criminal justice system, can we get our police departments, to acknowledge the humanity of black and brown folks?”
He goes on to state the police “abused” their power and “terrorized” the community for “hours”.
Of course, the people in those communities are not responsible for the irresponsible choices they make. Oh noes.
Of course, since this is the end game – handcuffing the responses of any law enforcement officer when dealing with a black suspect – it now makes more sense why Sharpton has taken the lead on this and Crumpster is a player in the background. This is much bigger fish than simply overturning “Stand Your Own”. (Read more...)

While it’s still early and independently verifiable information is scarce, compare and contrast to another highly publicized racially charged case involving “an innocent chile’ returning from the store“……
Meanwhile on vacation President Obama stopped short of calling Michael Brown his son, but he did deliver a Presidential Statement on the events: “The death of Michael Brown is heartbreaking, and Michelle and I send our deepest condolences to his family and his community at this very difficult time. As Attorney General Holder has indicated, the Department of Justice is investigating the situation along with local officials, and they will continue to direct resources to the case as needed. I know the events of the past few days have prompted strong passions, but as details unfold, I urge everyone in Ferguson, Missouri, and across the country, to remember this young man through reflection and understanding. We should comfort each other and talk with one another in a way that heals, not in a way that wounds. Along with our prayers, that’s what Michael and his family, and our broader American community, deserve. ~ President Barack Obama 8/12/14
Nothing says social justice like the backdrop of a cloud of teargas against the running silhouette of an impoverished lad clutching a freshly looted flat screen TV.
Into the valley in the shadow of plunder rides the DOJ to Ferguson Missouri: (more…)
Last night in Washington DC the mandatory Mooch Obama school nutrition standard was set aside as our rulers dined on something a little more, well, exotic:
But don’t worry, in the event the unwashed peasants had any difficulty understanding how the .0000001% live on taxpayer financed opulence, head grifter in charge -Valerie Jarrett- was there to broadcast descriptions of the magnificence to the lesser class:
And before anybody says anything like “they’re tone deaf“, let me assure you the Alinsky clan is NOT. This crew know exactly what they are broadcasting – and that knot you feel is specifically and antagonistically intended to “burn”. Their visceral response to your outward anxiety is laughter.

One would think a U.S. reporter would be the first to break ranks and honestly expose the Hamas propaganda. Alas, those days are perhaps gone forever. Into the void steps a reporter for France24 who apparently has had enough.
This French reporter actually shows the launch tubes for Hamas missiles and how they are placed next to his hotel. He then goes one step further and shows a bunker launching set up for Hamas rockets directly located under the protective flag of the U.N.
