What an idiot - they were probably using those earplugs so they didn't have to listen to him any longer. Would someone with a twitter account post the above as a reply for me?

No.....
This is rubber bullets.

Obviously this person has never been around heavy machinery or a landscaping crew using leaf blowers, chain saws and lawn mowers. This is just sad on many levels. Someone needs to get out more.

I believe these are highly specialized rubber bullets that are only effective if aimed directly at the ear canal.

someone, somewhere will confirm this and spread rumors. have you read the "tweets" about the riots? speculation-gets restated as fact. its just not helping anything in that situation. social media is fine for keeping up with friends and seeing what stars ate for dinner- but the ferguson situation clearly shows how twitter is not a reliable media outlet. i know-good luck convincing anyone under 35 of that one...to them twitter is indispensible.

Anybody noticed that Ferguson and Cliven Bundy are exactly the same story? Just switch Fox with HuffPo.

The story of media jumping to conclusions by deciding somebody they know nothing about is both a victim and and a saint? And the low paid civil servants like cops and BLM rangers are pure forces of evil in the melodrama ?

Love it that some of the bloggers are pots calling the kettle black

ROFL

Anybody noticed that Ferguson and Cliven Bundy are exactly the same story?

Not the same.

And you are aware this is one of the seasoned reporters who was so unconstitutionally and bruttally handcuffed and detained for 15 minutes or so after he and his buddy drug their feet when the police where trying to evacuate the area, including the McDonald's they were in. This guy is probably going to win the Pulitzer Prize.

I look for Jerry Mitchell to join Al and Jesse. Especially if there's any remote chance of an editorial prize or honorable mention for peace-advocate.

Wait! The shooter was a black man. Cancel the flight Jerry.

Mid life, so?

He still thought they were bullets.

KF, I'm pretty sure Mid-Life's comment was pure sarcasm.

People should definitely be paying closer attention to the events in ferguson. They illustrate just how quickly an impoverished black community can transform into anarchy. They also illustrate the heavy handed military equipment that our state and local police have acquired, and are anxious to use on we the people.

Also, whatever happened to the JPD officers who committed police brutality at the St. Paddy's day parade last year? They are still employed with the police department, 'keeping us safe'. Correct?

At least he asked, instead of just writing his story.

But yeah, not gun-literate.

Bill Dees is correct. You would have thought those two guys had parachuted into Saigon after the fall and stood up to the Viet Cong the way they and some of their media brothers carried on.

Ferguson is just a small example of what is going to happen when the federal teat runs dry.

Great Post 6:54 PM....I
absolutely HATE the huffington post. 1.) They a super liberal. 2.) Their website bogs down my computer. 3.)Poor reporting.

Talk about living down to ethnic stereotypes...

Bundy Ranch and MIke Brown are nothing alike at all.

4:40 is wrong too. This could never happen in Jackson, who would the thugs protest against? JPD is nothing but thugs as well.

Isn't this the ass-hat that is consistently making himself part of the story?

8:13 am

No, it is neither Alex Jones nor Chuckie C. Johnson.

"This could never happen in Jackson, who would the thugs protest against? "

Doesn't matter - they would burn down the local convenience stores (the local version of the QT that burned down the first night of rioting in Ferguson) taking away one of the last employers in the neighborhood; one that was not involved at all in the initial problem.

In summary, they would destroy whatever they could, for no reason whatsoever. That's why I would never invest in a business located in such a neighborhood.

9:08 PM

I think I see what the guy was saying about Bundy/Brown. Both cases are cast as being about overreaching government. Both involve militarized law enforcement. In both cases the authorities were intimidated by crowds. In both cases the "victim" was they darling of the media for a while.

One difference is Fox dropped Bundy like a hot potato when he opened his mouth. HuffPo still continues to portray Brown as a total innocent.

3:10

WRONG. Bundy recognized law enforcement at the City, County, and state level. If the sheriff had asked the protestors to back down, they would have. Bundy just didn't recognize the made up law enforcement agency of BLM. The negroes in Ferguson hate all cops.

4:33

Have you forgotten that 2 of the Bundy protesters, 2 who actually had stayed at the Bundy ranch for several weeks, went into Las Vegas and killed 2 policemen?

It sounds like they hated cops even more than "the negros in Ferguson".

How then, could you say these people would have backed down "if the sheriff had asked"?

7:42

the two people in question were not at the bundy ranch for several weeks. Where in the world did you read that? They were there three days, if that, identified as loonies, and asked to leave.

In one ear. Out the other.

They kinda WORK like rubber bullets, if you have a lot of p.s.i. between the insertion-points of a pair of them.

Bundy stole grass from the public. Brown stole cigars from a store. Brown's supports are Black Panthers with a history of killing cops. Bundy supporters are "Sov Cits" with a history of killing cops.
