Does anyone find it weird that the looter looks like a white guy in that cartoon? Or is that just me?

Well, some people are just using Michael Brown's death as an excuse to riot.  This is the kind of thing that occurs in almost any situation like this.

True, it's sort of like what happened in Los Angeles in 1992, Detroit in 1967, and Harlem in 1935.

The media would rather focus on the few looters and rioters than the mass destruction and havoc caused by police.

A good cartoon.

If you would take that comic 20 years back in time the people of that time would assume that Obama was the invader and that he had been hiding in the house overnight or possibly even longer ...Only to be discovered by the president who was suprisingly chill about the incident.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

I wouldn't be at all surprised if that was the intended takeaway of this cartoon as well. After all, we still have people claiming that Obama isn't a natural-born citizen, and therefore ineligible to be President.

If you look at it logically, cannibalism has great potential to simultaneously solve our overpopulation and food shortage problems.

To be fair, we can ditch that flag any time and no one would really care.

I'd gladly use the celtic wastelands as nuclear testing grounds and/or a herb garden and just transition the UK to the "United Counties of Greater England".

1. That is the most unpleasant to look at caricature I have ever seen.
2.How?
3.How?
4.How?
5.Seriosuly, did Michael brown not raise his hands high enough, or is it because he may have stolen some money from a drugstore so he deserved to die?
6. You're giant fucking hack Ramy, please go mouthfuck a wild rattlesnake.

"If I wasn't a minority the fact that I'm saying this out loud would be look absurdly racist, this is why the cartoonist is using a minority to voice his racist viewpoints."

Yeah, MLK wouldn't be happy about the riots, but he certainly wouldn't ignore what led to them either.

On a semi-related note, it's funny whenever people who condemn protestor using violence being used to solve problems in Ferguson are gung hoe about militarizing the police force and bombing anyone we dislike.
