Ferguson, MO: Might as well start the ball rolling...

I did not ask for the reason why the police force was 97% white. All I have done was point out that it is a big reason for the racial tension.

But thank you for the reason....could you provide a link backing up those findings you posted. Originally Posted by WTF

The last think Texas needs is California SOPs.

Well, I would rather the unions run off the illegals than WTF profit from them and continue to induce them to sponge off our society. Besides, if home prices go up, you will make money, won't you?

Artificially increased home prices are inflationary. Exxon is already driving them up by absorbing the available housing in the area. It doesn't matter how much one's home is worth, if one doesn't want to move and/or there are no buyers who can afford the inflated prices.

We don't need another California spiral downward. It's already bad enough that Texas electrical utilities (except for the municipals) have to pass on the California losses to Texas users. Having the unions infest the existing job market will decrease the job creation in Texas, which is booming.

Ferguson police now wearing body cams.

Good. About time. Hopefully, trained to turn them on.

I'm completely in favor of it. Hopefully, it will show the incredible amount of disrespect they put up with everyday.
(Unless of course they are arresting hookers and Johns, which I completely oppose them wasting their valuable time with such harmless activity!)

As soon as the demographics shift in favor of Democrats, you are doomed anyway.
Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow the Democrats will rule your state.
Might as well have the house rise in value so you can pull out the equity and live somewhere they don't practice statism and anti-monoculturalism.
Generally speaking, rich guys do OK in all but the most fucked up places, anyway. I don't think the USA will be more fucked up than Costa Rica, which I hear is a fun place to live, anyway.

Like Israel?

Watch this video it features a new fangled device cops will wear as a sleeve that incorporates a stun gun and a cam. I guess one day Robocop will be the reality of police work, lol.

Hardly. It causes a lot of consternation and irritation among some on here, who believe that all Democrats have to vote for only Democrats, but I've considered myself to be a Democrat. If the Democrats run serious candidates who are fiscally and socially responsible then I will vote for them. If Democrats running prefer to ruin businesses by shutting them down to search for "another salamander" or push for repeal of the right to work laws in the State so that the Unions can strangle the other businesses, then I will vote for someone else.

Hopefully people in Texas have learned from the California Experiment.

Back to the thread topic.

Dude, if you kill 2 people, and another idiot kills 4 people, is it OK that you killed people?? Originally Posted by Rambro Creed

Hey Rambrah, wha'cha think 'bout the Suge Knight shooting? Kinda hard to pin it on whitey or the po-po.
