I'd be interested to see how the right wing patriot teabaggers/oathkeepers who supported the armed militia insurgence against the federal govt in the Bundy situation, feel about the rights of these 'darker' citizens to exercise a similar solution to uphold their own constitutional rights against the government who they feel is opressing them.  Would they support the Black Gorilla Family, Crips, Bloods, Peoples, Folks or Mexican Mafia in their armed quest against what they feel is government oppression or breaches of the constitution? 

 

Objectively speaking, both sides' gripes are not that far apart, it all has to do with gov't overreach and oppression, so you'd think these white 'patriots' who showed up for Bundy with AR15s in hand would show up in similar fashion to support everyone and anyone who has a legit gripe against the gov't they say they hate so much.  Oh wait, no?  What possible reason could there be?  LOL.  Also, let's all notice the difference between the gov't response in Ferguson (national guard, riot police) vs. Bunkerville (no national guard, no riot police, no force).  I don't see anyone in Ferguson taking up sniper positions yet.  So what could it possibly be?

I find it funny that you think the situations are remotely similar.

Not to defend the Bundy folks because I think Bundy is a criminal, but did their protest destroy anyone's property?

Were Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton in Nevada to support Bundy? See how this works numbnuts. LOL

By the way, I don't blame the Black community for being pissed. I don't trust the militarized police state either and I think we all know, whether intentional or not, racial profiling exists.

I don't blame them either. But Brown was just another thug. That should factor in too. But it doesn't. If Wilson was black there wouldn't be a problem.

This is beyond a simple police shooting. The battle lines were drawn before the facts were known. The Feds reacted too soon and seemed to pre-judge the event.

I think everyone has pre-judged this one to be honest.

It looks that way. And sadly, a lot of people get so vested in their opinion, the facts take a back seat to the politics involved. This thing lined up along party lines right after it happened. No one had the facts but that didn't stop them from being certain what happened and what should be done about it.

The evidence presented (from what I've read at least) is that Officer Wilson acted appropriately and was attacked. But I haven't seen ever piece of evidence and I don't know what the Grand Jury will decide.

I don't support violence from either group or side, but fully endorse a peaceful protest. Surprised the groups in this story that as you say have a "gripe...with gov't overreach and oppression", continue to blindly support the party of more gov't oversight and gov't overreach. Hell at least the Bundy's were voting for smaller gov't while complaining about the gov't.

Could be because there weren't scenes like this in Bunkerville of small business owners losing their life's work and businesses to criminals...Do you not think the National Guard and Police should defend the small business owners of America? If this was your business, would you not call the Police, or do you think these thugs have a right to loot and destroy these businesses?
