Review of Ferguson, Missouri


Unrest, and Dissapointment in America
Star Rating - 11/25/2014
As an American white man, I can't begin to put my feet into the shoes of a black man. Fact is, the black man does have a cross to bare in America.I had hoped we, as Americans had come further than what I witnessed in Ferguson, Missouri. The fact is when the black people act out, by burning, and looting they're own neighborhoods, it makes them look worse than the event. This solves nothing. What happened to the respect of an officers uniform. two wrongs, don't make a right. Let's not loose out on all the hard work done for generations, to right a wrong. Tonight took us backward 10 steps. Wake up my black citizens, this does nothing to change your plight. Watching Night line, I have to give the white husband, and his wife kudos. They hit it on the nail. Don't group all white people into an incident we had nothing to do with. Why should they feel the need to stay in doors for they're safety. To all the black race, this isn't the answer. Were not against you, if anything standing along side you for justice, and equality. The answer is to stand together united as one human race.

And what happened in Ferguson and that is still happening around this country does not speak for all African Americans, especially not for me. I am most disappointed in our (African American, Negro, Black American... what ever or however labeled) leadership. Most of these so called leaders are educated and experienced people (including the US President and US Attorney General), so I cannot understand why they ignore the facts of each case, and keep looking for some underlying police conspiracies to murder us at will. My brother and nephew were not murdered by police officer, but by thieves and thugs of our community and our race (high school class mates), and unfortunately, these murders among us, against us happened more frequently that automobile accidence in some of our communities. I will peacefully march to protest “black on black crime” any day, anytime, anywhere,. I know some police have made some horrible mistakes (?), and if criminal intent came be proven, those police should be punished accordingly. But if no criminal intent found then there should be some an evaluation of an officer’s ability to handle the pressures of the job without acting unprofessional.
