"they might be misguided"
now that's strong, clear, positive language! Congrats, wimp

Black, white, brown, or purple, upward economic mobility in the US is harder than much of the industrialized world. http://www.economist.com/news/united...ility-measured
Any responsible minority has the opportunity to join the middle class as a minimum"
your really have no ing clue how economic mobility is largely and more and more defined the economic status you're born into.

Economist: I’ve Crunched the Numbers, and the American Dream Is Dead
“America has no higher rate of social mobility than medieval England or pre-industrial Sweden,” he said."

Did I misread the study? Was age 26 the baseline for the study from bottom 1/5 to top 1/5? Reading on my phone so I might have missed something. If not don't you think that's a little quick to assume they don't make the move by 40 or 50?
yeah im sure they followed her around, lobbing tear gas canisters at her wherever she went
She was with a group of protesters. You don't think the police followed crowds around?
if you actually end up in the vicinity of tear gas for 3 hours, you're doing something wrong
There are a number of studies out there, all of which with the same conclusion: economic mobility in the US is much lower than the rest of the industrialized world. The good (surprising) news is that economic mobility hasn't increase in difficulty in the last 40 years... the bad news is that it's just as unlikely at it has ever been.

link?
with inequality continually increasing, the non-1% suffering stagnating income, or getting poorer, good paying jobs more scarce (unions busted), with mobility-increasing education becoming tier (charter schools, reduced budgets for K12) and higher education more expensive, I expect socioeconomic mobility to decrease, not remain the same.

Linked in the previous post of Scott's. Mobility is basically the same as it was 40 years ago.
Cops are spposed to uphold the law and not be arbiters of right and wrong. Frankly your statement is so vague in basis that it is meaningless.
I'll let Scott speak for himself. You can barely read much less speak for others.
I see 2015 has gifted you an extra dose of gotry
yep, 35 - 40 years ago is when the VRWC, organized in the early/mid '70s, began to deliver its sinister effects.
That the comparatively ty American mobility hasn't changed (which is simply not believable given the increasingly inaccessible cost of college, esp state/public colleges, and the Repugs killing govt college aid) is NOT a positive. American mobility still sucks.
Good monkey.
You miss my point. You are stupid and getting it right once in awhile doesn't change the rate at which you spew stupidity. Again, I will allow Scott to speak for himself. Quoting him is one thing but your dumb ass is not qualified to speak on his behalf.
Boutons asked for a link, I pointed him in the direction of Scott's previous post. No one addressed or quoted you. You have no point, just more of your typical gotry.
Ferguson juror asks to be ungagged.
My point is that you have no credibility. You have demonstrated poor reading and critical thinking skills. It is what it is.I don't like being questioned so I am going to make up things about their sexuality.
Go back and read the progression of this conversation since you jumped in and you can accurately apply the above quote to yourself. I've caused you so much butthurt over the years that you blindly lash out at any and every opportunity, even when unprovoked. You come off as extremely insecure and pathetic tbh.
How is it blind? Over and over again you have shown that you have difficulty identifying the subject, predicate, or clauses of simple sentences that leads to poor reading comprehension. You repeatedly demonstrate the inability to identify key words and ideas much less comparing and contrasting them. The list goes on.
You are not qualified to speak for yourself much less others.
Take this post of yours above. You are long on assertions but you once again are unable to give supporting or demonstrative arguments.
Also, please demonstrate where I spoke for scott.
How A 15-Year-Old Police Shooting Case Puts More Dents In Ferguson Prosecutor’s Credibility
The anonymous juror’s suit also cites another case from nearly 15 years ago which suggests McCulloch has a history of demonizing the victims of police shooting, and skewing the evidence in favor of the police.
the details of the 2000 case, known locally as the Jack in the Box shooting, investigations by federal officials and St. Louis Post-Dispatch reporters reveal familiar-sounding details about McCulloch’s strange use of the grand jury process and inflammatory public statements following the ultimate exoneration of police.
Here are the four key takeaways about McCulloch’s conduct from that 2000 case, known locally as the Jack in the Box shooting.
1. McCulloch lied to the public about how witnesses testified to the key detail of the day.
2. McCulloch steered the grand jury toward viewing the dead men as hardened criminals, and later referred to them publicly as “bums.”
3. McCulloch failed to secure expert testimony to allow grand jurors to resolve the conflicting stories officers testified to in private.
4. McCulloch jumped in to stop a cop mid-testimony when he started to compare the incident to “a notorious police shooting of an unarmed man in New York.”

You people supporting, believing "official" McCulloch and his grand jury FARCE convicting Brown are the same type of people who believed "official" head, shrub, wolfy, rummy about Iraq.
