I think he is talking more about a reboot if you will. And yes, I agree that this is not for the good of the people.
Now, my take on this is simple.
Peaceful route: Do NOT spend money in Ferguson, not even with black businesses. Kill the town financially by going outside of it to purchase goods, gas up, eat, etc. Yes, it's a lifestyle change to a certain degree, and will put you out of a few more bucks but a town suffering that type of hardship will be forced to change. It was reported that the majority of businesses saw a decline in profit over the last couple of months due to having the spots boarded, even though they were open, so you take your money elsewhere. No marching, no sangin in the goddamn worthless church, just a cultural shift and willingness to spend your money in a different place.
Non peaceful route: Go to the police station, courthouse, well off neighborhoods and destroy them. Hit the banks. Cause diversions so the police and other emergency response teams are spread thin and hit the banks for more finances. Have a PLAN before you go and elect leaders who have tactical knowledge. Follow those leaders and do what they tell you. Some may have to die, it's the cost of doing business, but empires have never been built on love and peace, and neither has change, only bloodshed and money. Do not destroy your own neighborhoods, stores, etc. Why? These are essential in case shit hits the fan because they provide resources, shelter and hiding spots. Who knows YOUR neighborhood better than you? The police? Outsiders? No, but if you dumb fucks burn it down then what? Last thing, stay off social media.

lol ...only whites involved in those riots?
c'mon dawgg, I KNOW you of all people is smarter than that blanket statement.
I don't riot in the streets, period... maybe its a sophistication thing, maybe it's knowing that street riots solve ZERO.
I prefer to call it common sense, but some will name it different things.

While i see where you are going with this, i do believe it is a white and black thing...to an extent. As pointed out by "being white has its advantages". The broad scope would say yes, that there is indeed a class divide. But the racial stuff is more "localized" if that makes sense.
In this case, i do believe its a racial issue...especially in that town. I mean, its not as if cops are paid hundred of thousands of dollars a year.
I think if you surveyed 1000 people, white people, you would find the stereotyping if black people would run along the lines of "thug, scary, lazy, criminals, ignorant". The stigma of black folks just isnt positive.

i agree. but the difference for me is that i do not let it stop my drive. i dont make excuses.
good example. my gfs name is tamieka. she applied for a job user her name and her middle name which is renee. same exact resume, submitted within minutes of each other. she got a rejection email for tamieka for a phone call for her renee application and resume. shit like this. but again do i complain? no not at all. i just know as a black man i have a disadvantage due to my skin color i just have to make it so i do not come off as the stereotype that some people think we are. imo.

& that's your right to disagree.
We are talking about WITH THE LAW.
No, the POLICE, our government, & the national guard when they someday come stomping down the middle of our city streets DON'T GIVE 1 FLYING FUCK about some imaginary white privilege.
We are ALL guilty til proven innocent.
I'm sure they would.
I am not denying that, but the police dont give a fuck about your color, they got a paycheck to earn & cattle to keep in check.

Being white only has its advantages if you have money. Poor white folks get fucked with too. Oh you didnt know? White people eat their own kind. Especially if you have priors. You might as well have sold out your race, because if you have been convicted, you are no better than the black or the mexican people.
I got no issue with anybody because i see the stupidity in it. The only color we should care about is green. Everything else is trivial.

There's multiple systems at play - so you can be a white dude who exists in a society where based on your class/income you get prejudged or treated a certain way but within that system there could be a racial thing going on and within that system is a gender thing and so on and so forth.
I don't articulate myself as well as I could on here but I don't really care much. All I know is that growing up a poor white Canadian I feel thankful that I didn't have to deal with the shit a poor black American might have and I ain't saying that to disparage black people or anything, but it's true.

Ok let me start from the bottom of this one. Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and the naacp are there to exploit and make money. Out of the three I just listed, Sharpton is probably the most "credible" or as close to sincere as one of his kind (manipulator and opportunist) can get, but he is a former FBI informant so you can't trust him period.
Being in the hood, you're no different from anyone else. My hood was multicultural, predominately black but still multi and they (police) treated everyone the same (like shit.) However, that is in the hood. Now put me in the Oakland Hills, Blackhawk, Napa, Eureeka, or any other place around here where there is a shitload of cash, and not too many blacks and mexicans, and I'm seeing the red and blue just as if I were in the hood. It's easier for a white person to be in places where LEGAL money is being made then it is for a black person. That's the major problem.
A white cat can go into a place of business and not have his "story" confirmed 50 times by security, the fat bitch at the desk, the janitor, the assistant to the assitant and the food and beverage guy. Let a black man go in, suit and tie, suitcase in hand and he's jumping through hoops, gettin hit with the Reid Technique and about to revert back to his hood mentality all because he is trying to do the right thing and suffering for it.

In part, so am i. But i also feel like it depends on where you live in terms of neighborhoods and such.
Well, this is hypothetical and has not happened, so we cant relevantly come to any conclusion that this would be the case. We can only guesstimate.
Again, i disagree. I do believe that there are some cases where that is the case, but mostly its not.
I still disagree with this concept as a WHOLE. However, I have heard about "quotas". I dont know if this is for every force or what.

It's a white and black thing in the sense that there are still issues in this country between the two groups that have not been resolved and probably won't unless one of several things happen: We suffer an attack or epidemic so devastating it's a wake up call to all of us here. Blacks leave the country. This link happens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ix2-m1gDX8s
But I wouldn't say that black and white or black vs white is the only problem. Mexicans and blacks have issues. Mexicans and whites and have issues. Asians have issues, etc. Bad race relations is a problem but the root to that problem always ties back to fear and money. Fear that your resources will be taken by this group or that group so you must keep them down.

you're welcome
exactly, subject-able.
My guesstimate is accurate.
see? subjective results result subjectively.
I've heard about the loch ness monster, but don't believe everything I hear, only what is presented before me.
Getting beat by pigs while not resisting, yet hearing "STOP RESISTING" is only one of those realities presented before me therefore I believe in it wholeheartedly, yet I do not believe in the loch ness monster.
