    Why Is There No Outrage About This Police Shooting?

    Another angle to consider is, it was the veteran cop who was driving, and he may have pulled up so close because he specifically did NOT consider the kid a threat, and had planned to handle things quickly and peacefully without ever getting out of the cruiser. On the other hand, as you noted...

    Are many retail jobs slowly coming to a end?

    Truckers need to know their Cost Per Mile (CPM). It's a critical number to know whether or not a load or an average of loads is profitable. Calculated into that figure are fixed expenses, the monthly expenses that must be paid no matter what, and the operating expenses of day-to-day operations...

    The survey was so easy to do that I did it left handed. :D

    The madness of Fergerson

    Well, yeah, when you Google "goons thugs white guys" it's bound to turn up on the first page. LOL I didn't imply it, I stated it outright. The entire point of my statement was to point out the double standard in the media coverage. Or they could just be observant. How many posts just here on EO...

    Last year during Driver Appreciation Week, you should have seen what he did with a couple of loaves of bread and a mackerel.

    Excellent! :D The parade was several blocks away, and the fight had nothing to do with the parade or the celebration. Yes, thank God for Google. I do think Google should be paying me a referral fee, cause every time I post something you seem to feverishly wear it out looking for something...

    The madness of Fergerson

    Yes, I know there are different types, and not all of them include burning businesses to the ground. I specifically did not try to include any and all possible disturbances, and instead chose to limit the parameters to the typical rioting and looting that is similar to what we saw in Ferguson...

    Calling people thug-ish is different from calling them thugs, Mr Wordsmith. You still haven't answered my question of why you changed the entire premise of my post to straw man it.

    When you view forums by themselves (clicking on a particular forum versus clicking on "New Posts") sticky threads are "stuck" at the top of the thread list and do not move down as other threads are updated.

    The madness of Fergerson

    Inpoint of fact, no one has personally attacked you. At most people have disagreed with you, but disagreeing is not the same as attacking. It's not even in the ballpark, so your home run was a little short. On a completely unrelated topic, what's with this Russian and black thing? I have never...

    The madness of Fergerson

    Oh, good grief. Yes, sometimes they don't. Sometimes it gets as crazy as people popping the cork on a champagne bottle and drinking the champagne. But I wasn't talking about sporting even 'celebrations', I specifically and quite clearly said, "Post sporting event rioters and looters..." I...

    The madness of Fergerson

    I think you've understood completely what I was saying. The only thing I take exception to is the characterization of "successful while being black racist" as being the ones that black youth hold us as role models. With the addition of the word "racist" it implies all successful blacks who...

    Dear Expediters, help

    The reason Panther requires all of your vehicles to be on your insurance is, in part, because FMCSA regulations also require it.

    Thanks for providing us with an excellent example of someone who is otherwise intelligent posting something that's just butt stoopid.
