A friend from St. Louis sent me this e-mail this afternoon:"I listened to the NAACP meeting in full last night and one of the leaders say the looting is a form of expression for those that have been ignored or forgotten." Explain: 1) Why is there looting? 2) How does looting relate to the shooting? 3) Why was a tire store ransacked and robbed? Was the owner somehow responsible for the shooting? 4) Why was a QuickTrip burned down? 5) Why did near-riots break out in an upscale mall miles away from the scene of the shooting? 6) Why was a St. Louis County police helicopter fired upon Sunday night? Like I said in my original post to Luch, none of you understand the dynamics of St. Louis or its towns. If the residents of Ferguson don't calm down soon and let the investigations proceed, there's going to be a backlash from other towns and no one from Ferguson is going to like what will happen. I've seen it happen before and it ain't pretty. |
