Ferguson

This is like just out of the 60's...I'm reacting to the decision of the Grand Jury of that tiny little town...in Ferguson, Missouri...it very well may have been appropriate...surely, there are deep seeded feelings and emotions running about there...and this was the result...

My first question mark is...why release the findings in the evening?...what on earth is the thought process?...as soon as it was done, the people who wanted to, rioted...and there were those who eventually got arrested for doing so...well, most were residents of the area...much to the surprise of the pundits...as they kept alluding to outside influences...hmmm...

2nd of all...the sweeping of the streets by the police was uncalled for...the immediate reaction of the decision had to be expected...right?...and to show the force that they did...to me, this is purely wrong...

The family of the deceased guy...asked for peaceful demonstrations...BUT...I really believe that the actions of the police force, did just that...forced the issue...and thus...brought about the same type of emotions of the race riots of the 60's...missing were the attack dogs and shooting of the water by the hoses...changed to shooting of the tear gas and bean bags...

Were there any marks of possibilities of force used by the policeman?...undue type?...hmmm...I think that a trial would have done a much better job of exoneration...for the public...this case is NOT CLOSED!...

OK, I am but one person...but I have been the recipient of racial overtones...and they are still out there...

Onwards...

To what I may know about...

NFL...somehow the Bolts won...in a turrible game...so many mistakes, it was kid of funny...still, moved up to 7-4...and the snow game turned into one without...what?...Buffalo...moved it's game to Detroit...and played the Jets...last eve...and NOBODY saw it...and the Bills won, like 34-3...lost in all of this is my fantasy team...that has moved into solo first....yea!...

NBA...there is no super team...and the season will have it's ebbs and flows...of teams that will look great for awhile, and then bad...so...maybe the Blazers may have a chance this time around...maybe...

LPGA...Lydia Ko...won the season ending event...in a playoff...17 yrs old...$500,000 grand...big for that tour...she is from New Zealand...

And...

There are protests all about the country...the tiny town of Ferguson has awakened a lot of people...where is this going?...
