Here Is Cop Darren Wilson's Official Account Of The Michael Brown Shooting

Same thing with India's lower castes! To get an education is to be accused of selling out, "acting Brahmin".

In other words, you continue to contradict yourself.

Actually the First Nations issues run deeper than this. Most of the money sent by the government for education and welfare is stolen by the tribal elders. The regular tribe members see minimal improvements and remain in poverty. There is also a huge problem with the rape and abuse of young girls. The entire situation is a mess - that can only be resolved by dissolving the privileges of the tribal elders to run their own "homeland" entities - and have the Canadian government provide direct supervision, schooling, and social service payments to the native Americans.

Yes, I know.

There is a puzzling similarity with our criminal "blacks", though. The criminals among the First Nations people also heavily favor street crime, and tend to avoid white collar crime.

"Puzzling". Yes, Tommy Boy, it is quite "perplexing", what a "conundrum".

Let me state.... for the past several hundred years... white dollar crime has mostly been committed by people who are college educated and upper middle class (or above) in income.

Street crime is normally committed by people who did attend college and are poor in regards to income.

This does not vary by race, religion, creed, etc...

There are plenty of periods in American history with the poor committing the majority of street crime. Take the Irish in the urban cities in the 1800s, etc. Most of the victims of street crime are people in the criminal's own community who are most usually of the same race.

The bottom line is for a group to rise out of poverty and crime-ridden neighborhood, it requires a personal commitment to education, family structure, and responsible behavior - irrespective of race.

So true, just act like the dominant class and your future's so bright you gotta... you know the rest.

Going back to the First Nations for a sec, to be fair I suppose I should be calling them "reds".

But let's move on to the "yellows"!

Couple of indisputable facts. One, Brown had just committed a crime a few minutes prior to the altercation he had with Wilson. Two, he got in a fist fight with a on duty cop. Those two facts are pretty much all you need to challenge all the claims that Brown was an innocent victim.

Nobody's questioning his guilt. What they're questioning is that gunning him down was a bit over the top.

I bet all 3 of the black grand jurists voted to have the cop beheaded in public. Thank goodness there were 9 white people on the grand jury otherwise this could of turned out to be real tragedy.
