It's the result of people tolerating years of people like brassmonkey and blackmonsters and crew posting endless "white guy bad, black guy good", "cop is always wrong, black guy is always right" type posts. After treyvon Martin, Michael brown and the others in recent history, people are just sick of it and sick of that view where people can act like complete animals and that's ok. Crockett is a very liberal guy and even he is pushing back, that should tell you how bad these guys are.
Ferguson was turned into a war zone because a hardened criminal who just robbed a store attacked a cop and tried to take his gun.... then the media starts using completely quotes from his friend who was a wanted felon to stir up the masses. The Department of Justice report gave a clear account of what happened and it was nothing like what we saw all the "victims" protesting about.
The DOJ report comes out and literally barely makes the news because every news outlet was complicit in stirring up shit and misrepresenting the facts - for sensationalistic headlines.
This shit in my view should be called out every time it comes up and people who are reasonable, civilized and decent citizens who value a civil society should fight for the truth to be heard. Otherwise, all we get is lies, the riots, then the truth comes out and never even gets acknowledged as the nations lowest common denominator moves on to the next big lie.
