    I live near the Ferguson riots, ask me anything

    The riots are going on in my hometown and I have interviewed several locals at cafes in middle class, suburban areas about their views on the riots. Most people believe the rioters and protestors need to be violently suppressed, with some calling for the police and National Guard to fire live rounds at the protestors. A few people thought the police have become to militarized, though they also opposed the rioters/protestors. And a couple of people expressed concern about loved ones who are police officers or Guardsmen. One woman even bought three police officers lunch and thanked them for their service.

    The St. Louis community, with the possible exception of a few bad areas (such as Ferguson) largely supports the police and holds a negative opinion of Mike Brown and the protestors/rioters. Please feel free to ask me anything.

    This just in: conservative stooge praises police response to protests in Ferguson over murder of unarmed teenager, more at 11.
    There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." - Isaac Asimov

    It's a small suburb in North County. It's basically a place where parents tell their kids to avoid, because you'll get killed/raped/etc. Coincidentally(?) it is also home to a great many violent crimes and as thus is features in the local news fairly often.

    Do you think this would happen in a white neighborhood if a black cop shot a white kid?
