The Protest that the U.S.A has been long over due for

The protests in Ferguson and then copies throughout the nation...heading into the last weeks of August are but the outward boiling over of something that has been seething just beneath the surface of this nation for a very long time. Because of major political issues, Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, historical national elections and many other major 'crowded' messages that the American people have been subjected to for over two decades, this issue has been tramped down, stuffed and suppressed out of the way and off the radar
Ferguson and what the police are doing there and others....has ripped off the lid...of a ongoing national debate at the grass roots level that is finally receive the kind of national attention that it needs and deserves
and the growing popular unrest and protests over the same....are a good thing...not to be feared but embraced for change
and...lets see how our nation's first African American President and Attorney General react...to the
public outcry not only from little St. Louis 'burb America, but all across this national brutality landscape.

The World wakes up...inside America and sees...for the first time, the real american cop....
Oddly...many have been speaking and talking about this trend for years...including the Midwest Center and many others. Major scholars and journalists and various watchdog groups have been
speaking out about the militarization of the American local pd..and anyone with a pair of eyes, have
been noticing this important not so subtle trend among American policing ...
However, it seems it took a little known incident in some small African American ghetto town of St. Louis...to get the pictures up and out...that would wake up...the leviathan.
