It was an awful time for everyone and if you look at Detroit today -- that's 90% of the reason Detroit is what it is today.

So, Burn baby burn, but when you burn your own community down where will you live and do business? Vengeance without a real plan is its own evil ...
This.. is why the riots never make any sense in ghettos.. Sunday night looting..go burn down the corner store a Korean owns it!!! Monday afternoon.. shit hommies who the fuck be burning down the corner store where tha fuck we gettin the 20 ozs from?

It's just dumb.. Not that Ferguson was likely very a nice place to visit, but it certainly wont be attracting any future funding or growth. This is why when white people riot they go bomb other people's houses and neighborhoods.
