White student supports/attends Mike Brown event and is attacked

Feel the liberal love! This story epitomizes nicely the hate, violence, and incoherence of the race-baiters behind the entire Mike Brown death:

A young white man and student of Saint Louis University named Chris Schaefer attended a meeting of Ferguson protestors at St. Mark’s church. The church acts as a safe house for the organizing protestors.

Apparently while there, Mr. Schaefer began recording the meeting; or at least he was perceived to be recording the meeting. The mob, who ironically demand all police wear body cameras, did not like the thought of their meeting being recorded – so they attacked him.

Schaefer attended the event as a strong supporter of Mike Brown. He still was attacked, his cell phone grabbed, and the recordings on it deleted, by a woman with academic and left wing activist credentials as well as her own criminal rap sheet.

Genesis cover

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.

 
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.


The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

    This looks more like a communist event than a racial inequities event to me, this does not appear to be about skin color at all, this is some form of anarchism.

    As I said about the initial reaction in Ferguson, in August, “I am unimpressed with the reaction of the townspeople.”

    Law and order do not seem to be within their set of values. What were they afraid would be said at that meeting that they didn’t want it recorded? And their violent reaction shows that they do not teach their children how to handle conflict (perhaps not any other situation, either). It is small wonder that Mike Brown got violent with the shopkeeper as well as with the police officer.

    Yet the news media and political leaders only encourage such bad behavior rather than discouraging it. Had the media and other leaders been critical of this violence, then the townspeople likely would have greatly toned down their reaction, and others around the country would also likely learn the lesson of reduced violence.

    Amazingly, the media and our leaders talk as though they are against violence and bullying, but when push comes to shove, their actions betray their true values.

    I am unimpressed with the people of Ferguson, the news media, and our leaders.

    Apparently, it is getting to the point of the ridiculous:

    http://michellemalkin.com/?p=161139
    “The Ferguson group also wants protesters to be able to throw water bottles at police without retribution (not kidding)”

    “Demanding that cops be tolerant of lawbreakers apparently somehow advances the cause of ‘justice’ better than asking for protesters to be tolerant of laws. Go figure.”
