Eazy-E, Eazy-E, Eazy-E can suck a big, fat.....diiiick....
Everyone involved is a shit heel. The media and the usual suspects (Al + company) for race-baiting the local populace when the details of the story weren't out there yet, the cops for handling the guy's arrest and the aftermath about as poorly as humanly possible, the victim if he indeed was the burglar on the tape and the locals who think looting and rioting is the proper response to a situation like this.
There are a lot of tough questions that need to be asked after a situation like this (about racial profiling, police procedure, why the police are armed like the military, the media's role in causing the news rather than reporting it) but none of them will be asked because everyone's yelling the same, tired bullshit.

On a related note…
I'm going down to the Lou in a few weeks…staying about 10 miles from all of this shit, hope my hotel doesn't get burnt to the ground while I'm down there (LOL?)...
Privileged white people have a LOT of nerve to talk about low income blacks rioting over this issue. Let's not forget recent riots over Joe Paterno's firing, a surfing contest in Huntington Beach, and the 2011 Stanley Cup riot. Hardly ANYONE said anything about these riots. Sure there were news stories but in regards to the public, people were ghosts.
The difference between the two is one group of people were rioting over what seems to be "injustice" while another group riots because a competition didn't go the way they wanted to or one of their own was "wrongfully accused".
I'm in no way in support of the looters in Fergurson but for everything else, their anger was (and still is) justified. On the other side, it's "privileged injustice".
Ad homonym.
You'd think an educator would know better.

Ad hominem
If you're going to call me out on guilty by association, at least have the correct spelling.
Bring a gun.

the real problem this country has...the government.
As a result...here we go with the race bullshit once again...and the media...and the rioting...and the looting...and the division of people that should be unifying against the real problem this country has...the government.
I really don't like the word "privileged" being slapped on all white people. I can't believe I'm actually going to say this on the hyphen...but that actually offends me. All white people being called privileged is just as bad as someone labeling all black folks as being niggers. A vast majority of this country (people of all colors) are FAR from privileged. That term is quickly becoming highly offensive, I'm curious how I'll handle it the first time some ignorant fuck tries to call me that to my face.
I take offense being called privileged too. No, I'm not privileged, I work for my money (what little I make) and I'm proud of it.
