The President Calls For Calm In Ferguson Missouri

Hey Aeri... I just signed on really quick to check things (don't have time to type much right now) but just wanted to say that thus far I haven't seen, from ANYONE, anything that is taking things too far.... so, have faith in people. I have faith in people in this thread.


As a matter of fact, I think it's a GOOD thing and PROGRESS when people say things that are real without attacking. I pretty much believe that's the only way for things to ever truly improve.

 

They continue to drop like ten-pins ..............................

(CNN) -- One St. Louis-area police officer resigned and another retired in the continued fallout from questionable police actions in the days after the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Missouri.

The moves bring to three the number of police officers whose conduct was called into question after the August 9 fatal shooting of Michael Brown, an African-American teen shot multiple times by a white police officer.

The three officers are: Lt. Ray Albers, who threatened and pointed an assault rifle at protesters; Dan Page, an officer caught on camera pushing a CNN correspondent before a video surfaced of him ranting about the Supreme Court and Muslims; and Matthew Pappert, an officer fired after making what his chief called "very ... inappropriate" Facebook comments about the protests in Ferguson.

Albers, a 20-year veteran of the St. Ann, Missouri, police department, resigned Thursday, according to City Administrator Matt Conley.
Albers stepped down after the city's board of police commissioners recommended to the board of aldermen that he be fired or resign, St. Ann Police Chief Aaron Jimenez told CNN on Saturday.

The cops have their own little 'club' and IMO we are not in it, We are targets and 'practice' to them!

If any person of race would like to be in a 'culture' only club, So be it! But its when you cant sort through the bullshit from facts, Is when the problems occur. Even though im looked at as a racist, I would honestly feel out of place with only white fuckers around me. Yeah, My small town is white, But there is color and different cultures and ways of life that make it neat! If it were all the same, Pointless!

I do live I guess around one of the most ruthless, 'White only' clubs still around and excepted, The Amish! They do shady shit, To their own people though, But still fucked up stuff and they are racist as hell! Even 'outside' white people are the enemy to them.

 

I've seen Amish Mafia on the discovery channel so I know of what you speak


Hotwater

 

this thread is getting serious louie!

 

Noted.

Thanks.

 

Oh please. Amish Mafia was fake as hell first of all (referring to hotwater's comment to you)--- they referenced on their the Lancaster County Police Force... which, having lived in Lancaster county for 8 years I happen to know there IS no Lancaster County Police Force.
(If anyone watched that show and happened to see Lancaster County Prison on it though... that's one of the two jails I was at a couple years ago... the one I was at for the longest amount of time---still not that long though--- thank God! That place looks like a beautiful castle on the outside but on the inside.... every single inmate is locked down 23 hours every day (and this is county jail) and sometimes not allowed out-even to shower for over 2 days. No AC in the summer... people were fainting and some died... and really there are so many injustices going on at that place. It needs to be closed down. )
In any case, yea, just a show for entertainment.

Anyways I have no doubt that the Amish are capable of doing shady shit. I'm sure they do. But I like the Amish. They have some good fucking food and furniture. Anyways, leave the Amish alone...they're no worse then any other group of people.


Oh and I agree w you about the police club.

 

Seems to me you spent too much time in Lancaster County and it has clouded your judgment - You’re too quick to forgive their isolationist/xenophobic ways.

Also, I’ll have you know my knowledge of the Amish was greatly increased last year after purchasing the movie Witness (1985) on DVD

How do the Amish fear people from other countries? I'm not saying they don't... I've just never heard that.

As for them being isolationist, ... that's not bothering me, is it? So...shrugs.

Really though the Amish were at least 40 mins from my house in Lancaster County, as I didn't live in the farm land part of the county but I have run into them plenty while driving through those areas and also at farmer's markets and such where they sell a lot of baked goods and furniture and stuff and to me they always just seemed like hardworking people who keep to themselves and aren't hurting anybody, know what I mean?

I do remember hearing stuff about crack rings with some of the younger Amish people in Lancaster County... which struck me as highly hilarious.

(never saw the movie.)

 

Then you've missed a great movie starring Harrison Ford and Danny Glover


Hotwater

 

Just looked up what it's about and it looks good. Also see it takes place... .starting in Philly and ending up in Amish country/Lancaster County, PA. (that area that the movie is in Strasburg/Intercourse (lol!)---was always at least 45 mins from where I've lived but yea I've been to both places. I'll never forget the time driving from a neighboring county (not Lancaster) after eating some acid me and this girl were trying to get to Philly and ended up first in Intercourse, PA and then in Blue Balls, PA and we were just laughing at the signs and some goats on the side of the road.

Gonna make sure to watch that movie sometime anyways.

Anyways, will stop going so off topic on this thread.

 

Lancaster Amish Puppy Mills are some the worst things outside of China..

And you wonder why their jail sucks.. Lancaster is cruelty county. If they can treat human beings like shit. Imagine what they do to livestock and animals.. fuck those people!!!

 

I concur about the puppy mills! Ugh.. I had forgotten about that.

 

They treat their animals like in the worst ways possible. They beat them and drive them until the drop and die, Bury and get another. But they are exempt from the aspca and the like. Just like they are tax exempt, Only the community/church they belong to pays a limp sum based on land.
They buy land all around at cheap price and are land tax exempt for the most part. They also buy up the land so 'us people' don't get to see the shady shit. Some are nice, Fair and traditional and some are binge drinking drunks. A small few have also cooked and sold crystal meth. They got caught and walked with a slap, But their belief was 'im not taking it, Just making it' and reaping easy money.

Witness with ford and glover was a good flick. Love the part where 'its not our way', 'But its my way' and fucks some shit up! The Amish girl was hot too, But im sure her bush starts around her belly button!
The movies make them better and worse than they are, It just depends on you're church rules and fellow weirdo's. I like the Amish part on Kingpin with woody harrelson. That makes them look tolerable and funny, But in real life, Unless they need your $$ or you to make them $$, They have no use for you!
