  1. Very clever using Compton, CA in your analogy of Ferguson.

  2. I agree with you. Only a TRUE investigation of the truth is what needs to be done. The problem is, there are those out there that want to
    keep the emotions of anger, lack of responsibility of action and break down of the family a priority. Truth is not on the agenda. If they were really all that concerned they would be investing in these families and teaching morality to neighborhood's. It doesn't have to be this way with this kind of hate, hurt and pain. I'm a firm believer that it's not the color of one's skin but the color of one's heart. The Lord bless you.

  3. Wow, calm and rational thought. Ever consider going to Ferguson and attempting to start a dialogue with the "protesters"? In all the coverages, live streams and videos I've watched I've yet to see one prominent black person do so. I've seen JJ trying to run a collection plate around, I've seen Al Sharpton try to drum up more hatred and violence and I've seen a black highway patrol Captain declare he was going to protect the "protesters". Serious question, why not go there and try to reason with them?.

  4. Wow. My new found hero, after Jesus Christ. I am a white female and lived in Ferguson MO for 24 years before leaving there in 2010 due to divorce. What I am witnessing is so outrageous, that I cannot wrap my head around it and I know I am not alone. You mention perspective but based on all of the news, web, social media articles, there isn't any. I knew the police department quite well. I never witnessed racism from any of these guys/gals, white or black. Of course I am white but they talk. That city was on the side of rebuilding a great community and because one group of individuals who wants to continue hate among the races, they immediately accused this officer, who by the way had not even a speck on his record, of killing this man because of race. Your perspective is spot on and I wish more would listen. We need your perspective on the streets of my former home town.

  5. The people who are protesting made up their minds about what happened immediately. There is no reasoning with them. Someone like Larry would be told he's "sellin' out the brothas". If they were actually interested in the truth, they would wait until all of the evidence is in to make up their minds and then protest if they do not like the outcome. At this point, we know very little so what is there to protest?
