Gov Jay Nixon activates the MO National Guard to #Ferguson in the event of unrest
I am so distressed. Governor Jay Nixon activates the MO National Guard and issues A State of Emergency based on what he THINKS black people may do at the announcement of the Darren Wilson Ferguson Grand Jury decision. OMFG! Preconceived notions!!! How in the living hell can police not have preconceived notions about black people when a Gov activates the National Guard based on the same idea?
The Klan protest, law enforcement gives them an escort. Black people protest, the National Guard is activated. A State of Emergency is issued! Black people cant walk while black, drive while black, seek help while black, shop while black and now protest while black because black people protesting is a threat & dangerous for white society.
UNFUCK AMERICA! Blackness is not a threat.
Governor Nixon is not slick. Hes using the State of Emergency to violate citizens a right to protest because in a State of Emergency citizens can lose their individual rights. We see you, Governor Nixon!

I had intended to refer to the possibility of the State Police turning a blind eye to the Klan.

Yea, I think the meaning of the word "justice" could be subjective. It just depends on which side

I think you have no idea what the difference is between an indictment and a trial.

Exactly. Here, the police are usually protecting the protesters. That's what I'd love to see in MO

The very fact that you assume that there will be riots is in itself very racist!
