12749013, Incite a riot/massacre to authorize establishment of martial law
Posted by Atillah Moor, Thu Mar-12-15 08:53 AM
Once martial law is in effect you cull or eradicate any undesirable elements in the area in which martial law has been established. That's if it's FBI or CIA.

It could also be neo nazi or supremacist group related with the end goal being the race war so many whites seem to desire and or live in perpetual fear of.

There's also the possibility of anarchists as well.
12749030, Do you really think there is any benefit to inciting a riot?
Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Mar-12-15 09:05 AM
I don't understand your line of thinking.

What is the positive outcome for inciting a riot in Ferguson? You think Martial law is going to spread across the entire nation?

Do you realize how many resources are spent trying to quell a riot?

Do you really think anyone out there is looking to waste time and money?
12749167, Yes there is a benefit.
Posted by Atillah Moor, Thu Mar-12-15 10:02 AM
>I don't understand your line of thinking.
>
>What is the positive outcome for inciting a riot in Ferguson?

If the scapegoat is black then the desired outcome is greater support for any form of violent policing against blacks in particular. In effect proving to the minority of white people and remaining non-whites that violence is the only way to deal with black people.

If it's domestic terrorism as the boogeyman then the goal is to limit rights and to gain public support for such limitations.

It is certainly possible that it's just a fringe person or persons, but in that case remember Charles Manson and his goal in murdering all those folks was to start a race riot by trying to pin the murders on black people.

>You think Martial law is going to spread across the entire
>nation?

Eventually yes. I hope not in my lifetime or even the generations following, but I do see an effort by the powers that be to bring more martial law into western society.

>Do you realize how many resources are spent trying to quell a
>riot?

You don't collect surplus military arms if you don't plan to use them. Whatever it costs is negligible if the goal is to spread ones power and or control over a group. Here's a couple of plain clothes cops doing what exactly in a crowd of protesters?

Does this look like policing to you?

>Do you really think anyone out there is looking to waste time

Was the Gulf of Tonkin a waste of money? It helped get us into Vietnam didn't it?

Race riots are not a hard thing to start and as history has proven it just takes one lie.

1. No cop was shot back when protests were really hot this past summer.

2. Local police response to those protests alleged to be heavy handed and possibly unconstitutional (by DOJ, I think).

3. Local police mad about it.

4. Ferguson chief resigns after new DOJ report critical of the dept.

5. Local police mad about it.

6. Shot officers were hit by graze wounds, basically. Pretty convenient - officers shot but their lives were not endangered.

7. Within hours/minutes police know the 2 officers were the targets.

8. The officers weren't even Ferguson PD.

9. This confirms all of the local police concerns in a way that doesn't hurt the police department of the officers who were shot. It's too convenient.

It's a shame that the cops got shot but that's a separate issue from holding police accountable for their treatment of unarmed people.

Protestors did not create a hostile atmosphere towards police.
Police handling of police brutality(fatality) cases on the other hand has definitely contributed. Without these mishandled cases, there would be nothing to protest about.

The shooter should be brought to justice.
But those who want to protest, still have the right to continue.

If the residents of Ferguson kept it clean for the most part during this entire ordeal then why go crazy now? This is very fishy and seems incredibly suspect. Responding with violence especially agains towards police is never the answer. We all need to work together hand-in-hand for the prosperity of our community. <--- That is no way assuming these are the actions of residents of that community or an attempt to place blame on anyone at all.

In my opinion, this is not what it seems and the 24 hour media outlets have to take a step back to diffuse the situation by avoiding rhetoric that empowers people in power to continue their hateful tactics.

And don't get me wrong,one of my aunts is a detective, her husband is a patrol cop, and on my dad's side one of my uncle's is also a cop. On an individual level, I don't wish death upon anyone...but...

I do not give one single solitary fuck that two cops were shot in Ferguson fucking Missouri. The prison industrial complex, aka the justice system, declared war on the poor with their war on drugs. Well people get shot in fucking war.

You don't want to see more people shot? Then maybe it's time to start negotiating terms.

I bet the DA won't smirk on camera and refuse to prosecute those held responsible for these heinous actions. Maybe antagonizing the communities cops serve in is a bad idea.

nobody giving a fuck when anyone dies except when it happens to
their 'team.'

I know you probably think it sounds revolutionary, but it's dumb.

If one side is smiting eyes while the other simply allows it-- what good is that?
12750393, who died?
Posted by Crash Bandacoot, Thu Mar-12-15 08:51 PM
it's a war going on,
believe it or not.
12750396, Man, them cops got grazed, they're not dead. Talking bout cycles...
Posted by kevlar skully, Thu Mar-12-15 08:59 PM
There isn't any cycle of cops killing civilians & civilians killing cops in retaliation.

The only cycle is systematic racism, which when even blatently reported on, will never be actually addressed in any meaningful way because these cops getting grazed is now the story

So yeah, white guys like you will pretend like its a tit for tat game when it's not & will condemn black dudes who don't care that Stormtroppers who signed up to be police get fucking grazed... Like we're supposed to cry for these injured but still alive cops who work for a department that have been harassing & oppressing people who look like us

unarmed citizens are being murdered by police daily

report I read had the number at 176 for the first 2 months of 2015

0 fucks given (by the general public that is)

2 cops get shot

shot

not killed

shot (I'm not trying to downplay it, but they lived, sheeeiiit, I think they've already been discharged from the hospital)

AND YOU SEE THE REACTION

WTF!?!
