This is Remy's least recognizable parody.
Agreed.
Further, it does not mock the press. The press deserve a good chunk of the credit in Ferguson for willful dissemination of misinformation.
It also does not recognize that so far, the national guard that has been brought in was stated as not being used against protesters directly. They are ( at least last I heard ) only being used to protect other things to free up normal police for dealing with protesters.
I'm all for criticizing the militarization of the police, but at least as far as I know this isn't one of the things to raise a red flag about.
I will also point out that if predictions about the violent reactions and the now found bombs among the new black panthers are true, then this turns into a case of domestic insurrection. If that becomes the case, it is the militia that ought to be summoned into service.
Blacks have been literally fucked by the police for decades.
Your inept crassness indicates a fucking total disconnect from history which illustrates that your brain is swimming in irrelevant facts.
Stop.
Study.
For weeks.
Then post.
Oh, come on. First, please don't use "literally" that way. Second, anyone who knows history knows that mistreatment of blacks by police has greatly declined over the last 50 years. I won't say there aren't still abuses, but the professional agitators are having a harder and harder time finding cases. Mike Brown was just stupid and violent and made a series of idiotic decisions the day he died. It has nothing to do with mistreatment of blacks by police.
Actually it's still quite common for blacks to get the short end ex MJ arrests at a disproportionate rate.
Blacks should be ashamed, because they stood up in defense of criminals

For a second, I thought the grand jury had done something...no such luck.
Looters are hoping for at least another day of window shopping to see who has the best stuff to steal.
Is Scruffy the janitor in charge of H 'n R postings on the weekend?
No! Just because he's a janitor doesn't mean he's dumb enough to repost warmed-over crap that wasn't funny the first time.
It's not because Scruffy's a janitor, it's because he's a Zombie.
NYC creating next generation of vandalism/theft targets.
This will not end well.

If You Like Your End of US Combat Role in Afghanistan, You Can Keep It !
"President Obama reversed course on his previous decision to end American troops' combat role in Afghanistan by the end of the year. The classified order, the New York Times reports, will give American troops broader offensive capability in the country?including carrying out missions against the Taliban and broader support of the Afghan military?than first articulated by the President earlier this year."
