Ferguson (#6 i think)

It's been a little over a week since the up-rise  of protests in Ferguson and there is still violence going on. I don't understand why society thinks that looting, burning and damaging  their own community is going to help. In no way does this effect or show respect for the Death of Michael Brown. Everyone wants "change" the system and our 'corrupted' government but no one wants to put in the time or effort to become these police officers, lawyers, etc.... maybe Michael Brown should not have died the night he did but the way the community is reacting is not bringing any peace to his name, if anything Michael Brown is just going to be remembered as associated with this new social out roar over racism and injustice. This isn't the way a positive change is going to occur
