Corruption in city government isn't unique to just Ferguson. People who know someone who works for the city getting tickets 'fixed'. It happens. It probably happens in my city. One way that they encouraged payment is they offered monthly installments to pay off the ticket. Eventually issuing...

Where did you get that quote from? It wasn't mine. Please cite source please. One is too many. I agree. Just keeping it in perspective. If you disagree with any post I made, feel free to refute it with facts. Thanks.

To my liking? Yes, if I were a republican. Anyone who observed his past with the Clintons, knows he's a political operative at his core. He would be less interested in getting a candidate to answer an honest question and more interested in sabotaging a debate with some idiotic condom question...

It's unrealistic to think so. Everyone has their own biases. He was just too close with the Clintons and had a history in their campaigns of framing perceptions for them. He knows the tricks of the trade in politics. He was a damage control guy for his candidate, and a political opponents...

Stephanopoulos also moderated one of the 2008 Democratic Presidential Primary debates. One of the candidates on stage was Hillary Clinton. You would think the Dems, would have prevented him from moderating, given his history with the Clintons. It would probably be similar to Karl Rove...

And carrying the water for Dems with planted questions as a debate moderator:

A blast from the past video. Whatever one thinks about Iran Contra, and the mistakes that were made, this video is an example of Steffy being Steffy.

With all do respect, that is a retarded statement.

] It sounds like from what you wrote, you are buying into the false narrative of officers, particularly white officers, who are targeting and killing blacks based on their race . And the examples of what you find on the internet and elsewhere, is always an officer who happens to be white and...

Again, the types of crimes that Ferguson PD ticketed weren't conducive to many violations that older whites, in particularly would commit. Consider the white population in Ferguson being roughly around 26%, ( given the current demographic trends from a census taken 5 years ago) there just isn't...

It's possible if there were evidence of Officer Slager being a racist. So yes, it would be a possibility . Yet you are entertaining the possibility with what evidence that he is? And if you did have evidence of him being a racist, how does this relate to an officer in some other random city...

I'm just going by what an eyewitness said, as follows: ( emphasis mine) From link excerpt: eyewitness to the shooting, Feidin Santana, recorded video of the incident on his phone.[25] The video was subsequently shared with Scott's family through an activist of Black Lives Matter, and later with...

Yeah , me too .

I included the possibility of an encounter because there may have been one. The taser is seen falling to the ground in the video. You can't say definitely that there wasn't an encounter with the taser. I also said it was a moot point, as in, it doesn't matter that there was an altercation...

I've commented and criticized the police officer in the South Carolina incident, Funny, everything you post makes the effort to put law enforcement in the worst possible light.

They're not the preferred target. Munipalities are mostly interested in having the fine paid. Cities like Ferguson weren't able to obtain a lot of the money from the tickets they wrote against mostly lower income minorities. ( the DOJ report even makes note of this) Cities would much rather...

Actually it brought to light a couple of things I wasn't clear on by looking at certain '' biased' sites. It help explain the white flight phenomenon which happened in Ferguson and how the older white population wouldn't be committing most of the crimes that the police were enforcing with more...

What part of- no other journalist inquired about Ferguson's crime/ arrest rate going back to 2001- do you not understand? Other journalists haven't looked at this and your telling me to seek out other journalists? Regarding the interpretation of the statistics? Exactly...The DOJ interprets it...
