Thoughts on Ferguson

[noiretextatique]

1. well said, Cyrano

i think there is a huge racial divide when it comes to incidents like this. many black people, like myself, see these incidents (the killings and the failures to indict) as a continuation of racism. and many white people see these incidents as either isolated incidents, or in extreme cases, just the right thing to do. the latter group are racists, but the former...???? not sure what's going on there. in either case, i think it is fair to say the black people have far less faith in the justice system than white people. one thing for sure...there is a problem, at least i think so, when the justice system consistently fails to provide justice to victims, because of the color of their skin.
