None of this would have happened if Gov. Jay Nixon had provided the National Guard like the mayor asked just after Michael Brown was killed. Nixon refused and hasn't had to answer for it, and the media seems to have ignored their jobs. The media should have demanded answers considering all the damage the rioting has done. Most of the businesses that were destroyed were minority-owned, several of them black-owned. White anarchists from outside the area moved in and helped radicalize the crowds, not only inflaming tensions, but teaching them that violence is justified. The anarchists should have been arrested and prevented from returning.
Right on point. Almost reminds me of the trust fund kids in Zuccotti Park a few years ago screaming about "corporate greed." Twenty years from now, when they inherit the corporations, they'll be singing another tune entirely. Hypocrites.
