    What do guns have to do with an areas crime rate? I'd like to know? Is it a "fact," that density of gun owners in any given area is the cause of increased crime?

    Or simply that specific locations have more criminals than others? It would seem that since the criminal population of Americas prisons are dominated by a huge percentage of Blacks that locations/cities with high density populations of blacks would have higher crime rates. Not due to gun ownership percentages as alluded to by many here and elsewhere, or due to their political party affiliations.

    Just asking? Jim?

    It does seem a bit odd that in a community with almost 70% black vote, they manage to elect a white police chief and an almost totally white police force.

    Seem odd too that the violent crime rate locally has been cut so dramatically over the last ten years or so..... Random and spontaneous shooting of blacks or whites by the local police does not seem to be a common event.....but more black are subjected to traffic stops than white people. Shocking....as RC will continue to tell us.......

    Some of the youthful black model citizens apparently have a habit of wandering down the middle of the street causing some inconvenience to drivers. (this is especially true after stealing something from the corner shop) ....maybe some others drive on the sidewalks, or without lights, or license plates....which would likely result in a traffic stop..... in any case it's all the white-mans fault whatever happens....and you should know that.

    a cop shot and killed an unarmed man for walking in the street.....according the the police chief the cop had no idea brown was a suspect in the theft of a pack of cigars when he confronted him.

    In a later news conference, on Friday afternoon at Forestwood Park, a sports complex in Ferguson, Chief Jackson said that Officer Wilson had not been aware that Mr. Brown “was a suspect in the case” and instead had stopped him and a companion “because they were walking down the street blocking traffic.”

    To protect and serve ?
    They look like special armed forces not police and is a very worrying sight. Just when did the police start getting weapons and equipment normally reserved for the army ?

    ^It's surplus military equipment given to local police forces by the federal government.

    Look for a change in this policy after all these photos were replayed all over the US press hourly.

    Hope so- don't want domestic law enforcement running around dressed like GI Joe. It would totally attract the wrong kind of wigga.

    Police forces should also reflect the ethnic composition of the areas they 'police'. it's called community policing, and it works better than a foreign occupation force.

    Already does. I would bet over 90% of those cops are veterans. That's where they draw from...especially the Marine Corps.

    Actually, because you seem to be a fountain of information regarding all things in this thread. Prisons, percentages involved in crime by racial category, gun control, Chicago, Detroit, and police forces. I figured with all your research you'd have a pretty informed opinion to add. Seems not?

    Anyone can reply Jim, but your "salutation," was to good to resist. Jim

    Why don't you, "ask Jim?" My uncle was a cop in San Diego. He was asked to resign due to his overzealous beatings of those he arrested. When not beating the criminals he beat his wife who was about 4'-11" and he was 6'-4". He fits the stats you post since he too was a Navy Vet of WWII. After he left the police department he joined the John Birch Society, saying the San Diego police department were "Pussy's."
    He moved on to truck driving and carpentry, living with numerous common law women and eventually death by cancer. Sad that bit.

    Anyway guys, cops ain't all their cracked up to be. Some are good and some are shit, but that's how life is in any circumstance. Can't get to excited about the death of one person when entire nations today are open for wholesale slaughter by insane religious orders. R.I.P. young man, regardless of what happened.

    There are no sidewalks in most of the south and midwest. You either drive or walk in the street or who the fuck knows where. It is a different world from my America, but I am surprised that there are not more of these uprisings. Black Americans are still largely pacified in most of the south and midwest..

    That is fact Davis. That is why they respond like it is Iraq or Afghanistan. Salty battle hardened fuxks should not be police.

    It seems another consequence of the high profile militaristic stance is that the use of tear gas is being scrutinised on the net. It is apparently banned under a Geneva convention for use in warfare, but it is the 'go to' weapon of choice for civilian crowd control, not only in America of course.

    As for the shooting, legally there's no grounds to shoot an un-armed man, but I can understand how a volatile situation got to the point where the youth was shot dead, there are no easy answers and despite the rhetoric nothing will be learned. Just another symptom of humanity going to hell.
    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!"

    ^ Tear gas is nothing compared to what most riot cops in the US use. CS gas fucks you up far worse. I would now as I have been subjected to both myself.

    So we are back to rioting and looting in Ferguson overnight with the actions of the Police largey responsible.

    The alleged theft has been discovered to NOT have been the cause of the Cops actions as he did not know about it, but may have been a factor of the Kids reaction...


    And we are back to...

    Police....



    and Shocktroops...

    That worked out well, pull out the local cops, put in a happy smiling black chief, use traffic cops to police the area.

    Yahoo news today.

    A state of emergency has been declared and a curfew imposed today in the American inner-city suburb of Ferguson where a black teenager was shot to death by a white police officer a week ago.

    One Shot, Seven Arrested as Protests Continue

    POLICE say a man was shot and seven others arrested after officers enforced a curfew in the St Louis suburb of Ferguson.



    The man, who was shot near the site of the riots, is said to be in a critical condition.
    Earlier, riot police fired tear gas at hundreds of defiant protesters who remained in Ferguson after the midnight curfew took effect.

    Some left but others defied the curfew, chanting and taunting the police dressed in riot gear.
    Five armoured tactical vehicles approached the crowd as officers spoke through a loudspeaker, telling the crowd they needed to disperse immediately.
    A Missouri State Police representative said tear gas was used to disperse crowds “at the end of their efforts”.

    As officers put on gas masks, a chant from the distant crowd emerged: “We have the right to assemble peacefully.” A moment later, police began firing tear gas cannisters into the crowd, CNN reports.
    Governor Jay Nixon declared a state of emergency in Ferguson on Saturday - the site where 18-year-old Michael Brown was killed by a police officer.

    The protests are no longer about the alleged wrongful death of a suspected violent thief. They have now become an opportunity some people to play out their personal agendas, whether it be "taking on the man" or looting. Local merchants and merchants will be sacrificed as the authorities let the mobs run wild in a small area, lest the authorities be accused of heavy handedness. The end result is justice denied and anarchy.
    Kindness is spaying and neutering one's companion animals.

    Loads of white guys get shot dead by police, here in the U.K yet nobody goes looting in protest.

    The US would need a tank for every protester. Seems like a dumb idea.
