Ferguson: The next Civil War?

You all remember during the summer with the situation in Ferguson involving the young Michael Brown and Ferguson PD officer Darren Wilson. During that time, we saw a dramatic turn in the media towards the incident. With protestors in the streets and military-like vehicles patrolling the town, the small Missouri town found itself as the center of attention in the United States. Even eclipsing certain topics such as ISIS at the time. Then with the increase in violent protests, more media hounded the town.

This conflict stemmed a entire race controversy throughout the United States. Having Michael Brown be black and officer Wilson white, many were saying that the encounter was stemmed from race. It seemed as Officer Wilson were to be ripped apart by not only protestors but the liberal media as well.

BUT, as the tension grew more and more, shocking evidence came to light, forensics studies showed that not only did Brown make an attempt to grab Wilson's firearm but perhaps charged at him again while outside of the vehicle. Surveillance video from a local connivence store showed Brown and his friend he was walking on the road robbing the store for expensive cigars and physically harming the store vendor. And the final nail in the coffin to the case was that a Mr. Johnson, the man Brown was walking with, admitted to Brown making an attack on the officer after lying to the media in the first week or so. With all of this information flowing in, the fight to have Brown's name not fall to dust failed. With an almost embarrassing filter on their protests, things seemed to simmer down, until another issue arose.

Those who still felt that even though Brown's case failed, a fight for race equality emerged. So once again, protests began and the police responded tenfold. And to the shock of many, the Klu Klux Klan has recently released a statement and threats against the protestors claiming that lethal actions will be taken against them if protests do not stay "peaceful". With the PD of the area now in awe of the KKK's involvement, they have backed off a touch in fear of an all out race war between the protestors of Ferguson and the Klan. Now in waiting of future events to take place, the country is watching and waiting to see how things play out.

Once again, a new chapter of American history may unfold in this small southern town causing a widespread movement in the country. But any drastic events are very unlikely. These threats are similar to a Cold War like scenario.

I would write more but the bell is about to ring
