Ferguson & St. Louis, MO -- Deaths and Protests

[HairOfTheDog]

Marital law should be imposed in Ferguson, all looters shot on sight. The world is watching and the world is laughing at the US. We need to stop treating these people like naughty children and impose consequences that mean something.

Well, that would certainly cause race riots or civil unrest across the country; yours is the exact mentality that protestors are challenging.

Personally, I don't think introducing martial law and imposing a potential on-the-spot death penalty for looters is a good idea. You wanna tear gas and arrest them with some mandatory jail time, maybe. But do you really think they should be shot on sight, Cheyne?

And, who in the whole world is laughing at the US over the Michael Brown shooting and its aftermath -- countries that execute their citizens for stealing? Are we really that hyper sensitive as a country that killing civilians for theft and vandalism should be advocated in order to avoid a little mockery?
