Truth.

"for the first time since 2011, all 20 acting nominees are white."

Well I've got news for people who think that way, cops have first amendment rights too, and we plan to exercise ours. I'd remind the NFL and their players that it is not the violent thugs burning down buildings that buy their advertiser's products. It's cops and the good people of St. Louis and other NFL towns that…

Police unions are the worst, THE worst, and I say that as a general supporter of unions.

It's not even a display against the St. Louis Police department. It's so much larger than that. Look at the bigger picture people. Black lives matter.

I thought it was offensive when the officials by the goal line kept making that same gesture in St. Louis today. Enough is enough.

So, let me get this straight: Missori cops want to punish black men for putting their hands up and saying "Don't shoot." Hrm.

Its not a coincidence that the cops started cracking down tonight. They knew the autopsy report was going to drop and this is a great way to both distract from it and use the few protesters seeking confrontations as a way to build support for the police and their actions. The cops may be heavy handed and just plain…

Bless your heart, you honestly don't get it do you? This isn't a white trash, middle eastern, Indian and whomever else you mentioned issue! Are any of those other ethnic groups being killed like dogs in the street?

Yeah, maybe you're right. I don't post very often and I hope that this makes even a little bit of sense. I'm a black man in his early 20s who has lived in the center of St. Louis my entire life. This is a strange city in that for being as big as it is, the mentality often times seems like that of small stereotypically…

It isn't just about recognizing basic human rights, it's about recognizing privilege. White people (myself included) often don't even realize how every aspect of our lives has been carefully constructed to allow for success (barring situations such as poverty, abuse, etc). I think it comes down to a lack of empathy…

If this isnt a black issue... where are the other nations outrage of this continuously happening? Why arent you out there speaking out against this kind of treatment? And why is this not happening to so called whites, asians, arabs etc. Its crazy how whites always say "Oh this isnt about race, its a people issue."…

I have a slightly different take on it. I don't think Holmes and Tsarnaev are alive because of their race, but I do think Brown is dead because of his. I believe that BUT FOR his skin color, he would not be dead right now. That might seem like a silly distinction — and maybe it is to a degree — but it was somehow…

Can you explain why the police rolled up to a candlelight vigil in SWAT gear?

Can you explain why Mike Brown was gunned down in the street while James Eagan Holmes, who killed twelve people and injured 70 others after opening fire in a movie theater, was escorted into a squad car?

I can't help but look at that photo and think, "AHH! Turn that bottle upright!! Don't spill the milk!!"

I think you think you are punishing the accused player with your racism but in fact you are punishing the entire black community by using that word. And of course you lose all worth as a human being.

A chronic pot user? Oh my heavens!
