Ah HELLLLL NO, enough of this gimmick infringement.

Not gonna think you're so clever when you meet Shaft coming over the middle.

You're right, but the protestors have made it worse. They did, in fact, "burn this bitch down".

Don't shite where you eat.

Hope this causes him hell if this is truly him.

Im sure his current employer is going to fire him and this will keep all the big companies from hiring him. He had a promising career

In contrast, I've also taught a lot of rich kids from the best private schools who were just as dumb as the dumbest underprivileged rural poor and/or urbanite regardless of color and the ones who came from good prep schools shocked me because they went to the best schools and many had fantastic ACTs/SATs but they'd been taught to test not to think.


Please shorten your sentences, this was very hard to read.

I truly feel for any remaining decent people of this town, & similar places, who have seriously tried to make it an at least civil place to live over the years, but some things are beyond repair/redemption, and not worth the effort anymore. Those folks need to cut their losses & move on because the entire town just needs to cease to exist.

It's unfortunate but these people are statistically going to be less intelligent as a whole. People who are less educated are more likely to live in poverty and have more kids. Their kids are significantly less likely to get the nutrition they need at an early age, which in turn makes the children significantly less likely to develop the intelligence needed for an education. Which then makes them more likely to have too many kids who don't get the nutrition and development they need, and so it goes.

These are all facts. It's a very sad situation and it unfortunately snow balls. It's why it is so hard for people to get out of it. We can't help this generation, but we can help their kids and help the next. It seems fundamental, because it is, but a good nutrition program at elementary schools will have such a massive impact on these traditionally poor neighborhoods.

As for the comment. You have freedom to say whatever you like. However, when you say shite like that, you should 100% have to fear the repercussions of that statement. Just because you can say what you want doesn't mean you should be able to do so and not be held responsible. At some point survival of the fittest has to override us protecting everyone's individual interests. If you're dumb enough to put shite like that on twitter, you're too stupid to be of any value to our species.

The problem is that now they can't sell their property there, it's worthless. Moving on and cutting their losses means they are financially ruined. All thanks to the thugs, the media and the "peaceful protestors."

I posted in another thread that since there is really nothing left for any legitimate business owners there or productive citizens who have tried to make that place a decent town, I would support some kind of funding for them in which their homes & businesses are "bought" from them, giving them the means to relocate & re-open their existing businesses or start new ones somewhere else. I don't see any possibility of any business surviving, much less being successful in Ferguson at this point.

Now if you're a conspiracy theorist, you might have just hit on something. One of the agitators that's been arrested multiple times works for a real estate company. Me thinks she was there to make sure things boiled over into violence to drive down property values so they can swoop in and buy all kinds of property.

But there really is. That is such a confined area relatively speaking. The way it's been described to me by a few who live in Ferguson is that there is a white Ferguson and a black Ferguson and that they are almost completely different worlds with little to no overlap. So little crossing of the tracks that they never once felt threatened during the height of the rioting.

I don't buy all of this stuff at face value.

Think there is some provocateur stuff going on for sure.
