Compared to the 3200 troops sent to Iraq, the presence of over 2200 troops in Ferguson seems to be massive, especially to subdue our own citizens who are out to protest, a right they have been granted by the constitution of the United States.

The Russian lawmaker hits the right chord with his remarks.

US tells other countries about democracy and human rights, while using National Guard to supress protests in Ferguson, Russian Lawmaker Andrei Klishas believes.

MOSCOW, November 26 (Sputnik) – The United States pursues a policy of double standards in dispersing demonstrations in the city of Ferguson, Missouri, a senior Russian parliamentarian told RIA Novosti Wednesday.

“When it comes to ‘orange revolutions’ organized by the West, casualties among the civilian population is a side effect on the road to democracy, but when the US National Guard quells civic protests, they are imposing much-needed order in an emergency situation,” chairman of the Federation Council (Russia’s upper house of parliament) Committee on Constitutional Legislation Andrei Klishas said.

The lawmaker noted that their efforts are “turning back from principles they dictate to the world,” adding that US authorities are "using any means necessary" to quell the unrest in Ferguson.

The St. Louis grand jury's decision on Monday not to indict white police officer Darren Wilson over the fatal shooting of African-American teenager Michael Brown sparked a wave of protests in major US cities on Tuesday. St. Louis Police declared the protests an unlawful assembly, arresting 44 Tuesday and 61 the previous night. Missouri Governor Jay Nixon has tripled the number of National Guard troops from 770 to 2,200 Tuesday.

"At the same time, civilians in Syria are dying from US air strikes. Violence is the norm in achieving [a] 'good cause' both within the country and with respect to citizens of other sovereign states," Klishas went on to say.

Earlier in the day, the UN reported the US-led coalition against the Islamic State (IS, also known as ISIS/ISIL) in Syria has killed at least 50 civilians since the start of the airstrikes in late September.

The US has been my home for so long. It's been a great country - be it the relatively friendly people, ingenious entrepreneurs, or fair labor-laws and norms-to point some merits.

But the recent legally-protected slaughters of unarmed young civilians in Sanford, Florida and Ferguson, Missouri underline a grim truth about the racist zealots who are lurking around and the double-standard of the US' preaching of democracy and human rights around the world. Obama not only came with his audacity of hope but with a head full of dark hair. They are not going to make it any easier for him going forward. You mark my words, his hair is going to turn from gray to white by the time he leaves the White House. The Republicans made the last election all against the Democrats' black President and his failures. That's how the Republicans won so many seats. The US involvement in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria has proven to be a bane to its moral authority over the World. In terms of world economics if the creditor-nations such as Russia, Brazil, China, North Korea, and the whole of the Middle-East devise a viable alternative to the US dollar, we are going to be seeing a global trade landscape which is completely upside-down.

The Middle-East policy has been a disaster since the zionists bribed their way in to grant Israel the statehood. That was the sentinel and the seed when the fate of the NATO nations would mark a long and gradual downfall.Those political players or the puppets are long gone but haven't they left their ever-complicated mess as their legacies for the future generations to deal with? We got too many politicians abusing their power without any foresight. What we need more are statesmen who have cultivated some sense of humanity and justice. The United Nations largely funded by the US and the sympathizers has passed World Patriot Act very recently. It has come a long way since 9-11. Why do you think Nepal has also jumped into the Machine Readable Passport (MRP) band-wagon when there are no proper soap or running water in the restrooms at TIA? I bet MRP is also related to the so-called global fight against terror. The curious answer is - "impose all you can but do not skimp on our financial-aid" is the third-world's mantra. You better get prepared, the world, as we know it, is turning into the Police state that captures:
Every breath you take, 
Every move you make, 
Every bond you break,
I will be watching you
...

i think American international policy and Ferguson issues are two different things.
Surely America needs to revise it's international policy but things that happened in Ferguson needs to be seen from the point of view of cop who happened to be "white" and the person who died happened to be "black" with questionable background.
From what i see in modern day America, whites have relaxed a bit on racism whereas blacks are still cashing out the suppression issues but not all blacks are doing it.Those who moved forward from 60s mentality are doing very good.
If this is about "innocent" person getting killed at the hands of a cop then probably there are 100s of other cases that needs international media attention.
If this is about white killing black issue then statistically blacks are killings blacks more than whites killing black.Everyday in big cities number of people die because of gang violence and most of them goes unnoticed.
i was reading this other blog yesterday where it listed out number of innocent white people getting killed by a black person.

http://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/ferguson-michael-brown-indictment-darren-wilson/

Former New York state Chief Judge Sol Wachtler famously remarked that a prosecutor could persuade a grand jury to “indict a ham sandwich.” The data suggests he was barely exaggerating: According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, U.S. attorneys prosecuted 162,000 federal cases in 2010, the most recent year for which we have data. Grand juries declined to return an indictment in 11 of them.

First of all, why do they have so many pussies in the Police force all over the US? They are like shooting robots with a one-track-mind.

For every situation of potential trouble (mind you, it's not a trouble yet, legally speaking), they have to reach for a gun to solve it. At least to his credit now, George Zimmerman was man enough to try with a bloodied face first before shooting down that unarmed teen Trayvon Martin ? This cop Darren Wilson (or whatever the pussies name is) appears like he is allowed to get away in a government-charted plane after gunning-down a young citizen. Bullets are cheap - actually free - as they are paid for by the Police department. For every shot fired in the line of duty, shouldn't that expense be taken out of their paycheck? May be there will be less killing if that happens. I am open to other suggestions too.

Even if the police pussies have to shoot ( and can convince the public to believe it later) why don't they target the legs or non-vital body-parts? The point of using baton or fire-arm should be to disable the suspect and make an arrest and allow the rule of law to take its course. But it seems the final and the life-long lesson the police academies stresses to the recruits is to use the lowest common denominator when suspect-aggression is foreseen, i.e., 
Always shoot, and when you shoot, always shoot to kill.

Be careful folks, even being noticed holding a fork in disagreement in a restaurant when a cop happens to be dining at the next table could prove to be a fatal mistake -  a mistake you will never get a chance to learn from.

200 plus pound guy who just stole from a nearby store hits a police officer and tries to take his gun. That person more likely than not will be shot. He can be a black , white or brown guy it won't matter.
Fact that grand jury did not return the indictment shows how weak the case was against the officer. autopsy as well as witness accounts proved that he was not shot while his hands were up and he obviously was not shot from behind.
Protestors are destroying other people's properties , businesses etc including the church Brown's family used to attend. Why do the business's have to suffer just because they happen to be in ferguson??? State should do everything possible to defend properties. Protests should be peaceful. Protests should focus on changing system. May be laws related to use of force by police need to change etc.
Media and politicians from the beginning made it look like a white police officer shot a little black innocent unarmed kid who had his hands up to surrender which obviously was a false narrative and now people are surprised grand jury did not indict.

Hey Sexi,

Turns out until yesterday, I believed women would show more compassion. Thank you for opening my eyes to the ugly truth.

Next time if a  black Thug comes to rob a house, Don't call Police
If a black Thug comes to rob your work place, Don't call Police
If a black Thug try to Rape your mother and sister, Don't call Police

If the police will keep shooting all suspects, then criminal lawyers will not get any clients. Then how do you expect them to pay-off the expensive law school student loans? And the for-profit prison systems and their vendors would also keep losing business if there would be no more convicts feeding the system. We will be missing all those B2B trickle-down effect the politicians seem to tout all the time.

I might be better off buying a gun myself and learn to shoot at legs and arms of would-be-criminals instead of calling the terminator-cops when I get into those situations myself.

Because WHITE  Police will come and kill those BLACK Thugs, and You feel bad for these Thugs...Right!!!!

This guy was Looting a store, gave Dhamki to store owner, ( NOT HE SAYS, SHE SAYS) VIDEO RECORDED..THATS A FACT. 

I need the truth, not the facts (Go figure). And where are the video links?
Is this the video that shows the facts?




For the rest of the people who come up with reasonings that seem to fuel the downfall of Nepali community please read this snippet from my previous post:

Even if the police pussies have to shoot ( and can convince the public to believe it later) why don't they target the legs or non-vital body-parts? The point of using baton or fire-arm should be to disable the suspect and make an arrest and allow the rule of law to take its course. But it seems the final and the life-long lesson the police academies stresses to the recruits is to use the lowest common denominator at the slight hint of suspect-aggression no matter how unjustified, i.e., 
Always shoot, and when you shoot, always shoot to kill.

GeetmaiJawafDiu is completely right. These american cops are bunch of dumb pussies. When they enroll to be a cop they know there will be situations where their lives will be in danger. But then when they see a guy bigger than them or are confronted with a situation where they will have to use their head to come to a better conclusion, they take the easy way out and resort to their guns. Pulling out guns should be the last option. What's the purpose of batons then? And why did the cop have to shoot 6 times? Couldn't he have shot on the legs?
In a society where cops can act like thugs, imagine the signal that is sent to the citizens.
I thought american society had evolved from the "Far-West" era but I must be wrong. These americans are still primitives solving conflict with guns and bullets and then they call themselves the greatest democracy in the world. What a farce.

Hey fuckbook,
you could be the next victim. karma is a bitch. You ain't from the privileged race in this nation. You are still a minority and an immigrant.

I see a lot of self-proclaimed educated fucks like you while they are really trained for a specific line of occupation with no conscience or clear rationale whatsoever.

Facebook,
take this:
Just to add insult to injury(death here), you are using the N-word against the deceased, calling you an animal would be a defamation of the animal kingdom.

Hey geetmaijawaafdiu
Your so called "victim" used to be a robber. Last i know police do not go shooting around people just coz they don't like their color.
Sure karma is a bitch but it does not take us to be from privileged race to follow the rules in this country.If we are not breaking rules then i believe we do not have to be in situation like your "victim" did and hence i guess the "maniac white" cops won't shoot us.
There was one more incident of a Asian Cop killing an innocent black person in a housing project. Asian Cop is not facing as much criticism. I am sure if it were a white cop doing it ,it would have been tagged as racism.

Every crime has a fitting punishment. Robbers do not deserve that vigilante killing. That cop would have become a hero if he had the discipline or the courage to take the suspect into custody - alive. The law enforcement has to be trained to walk the very difficult fine line. If the police thinks the criminal suspects are just a nuisance while counting down to their payday and fleecing benefits, then they should not be in that line of work. Doctor have jobs because of the patients, police have their jobs because of criminal suspects. Michael Brown is dead. The victim really is his mother and his family. 

There is a long history of racial discrimination between the black and white in the history of the US,e.g., slavery, civil right movement, OJ Simpson, Rodney King, Trayvon Martin, etc. The complete trust has never been established between these two groups. Firearm sales spiked after Obama got elected. Asian and black interaction is relatively so new. Any new infraction can easily be brushed aside with a benefit of the doubt.

You have been watching too much Death Wish movie series while residing in NY. Bring back your sorry ass into the real world.

People of stature, who have so much at stake, are taking it out on social media against police brutality and government inaction . Yet you can't even accept certain truths anonymously. LOL! :D
That's the difference between you and the people of integrity.
