(Before It's News)

I’ve become a fan of John Oliver since he left Jon Stewart after Stewart took his extended vaction (read: Reprogramming). Oliver does an extensive humorous but poignant look into how Ferguson is a microcosm of what’s happening all across our country. 

 

Sorry for the lack of synapsis, but I just wouldn’t be able to do it justice, Olivers comedic timing is superb. He really delves into the militarization of the police.

  • OMG..thank-you soooo much for this. I laughed sooo hard…I cried…I went from laughing to anger to laughing…everyone in the US should be made to watch this..lol

    • I felt the same. Thanks to John Oliver.

  • An eye opening must see!

  • Should be mandatory viewing.

  • The militarization of local police forces is being done in anticipation of the SHTF scenario which will play out when the USD collapses. Anyone not planning for this guaranteed scenario is denying reality. Nobody knows exactly when it will occur, but given the BRICS nations actions, world events happening in the middle east, the Ukraine, ebola and the bubbly stock market based on the hot wind of the fed, it could literally spin out of control in a flash. Any black swan will do…

  • absolutely brilliant! thank you for posting this!

  • Flashback 80′s and now. Nothing has changed.

    ‘Man, I’m from the westside of Chicago.’

    • While Clarks misadventure might be considered funny to some…..I’m a petite and some might consider me an attractive white female. I’ve been very lost in some very dangerous parts of several different cities including Birmingham, Chicago and Detroit.

      I have to say….not once in those instances has a white man come to my aid…..they passed me by every time. But each time….I was aided ( and once my tire was changed) by very polite and respectful black men.

      I find our white men far more dangerous because of arrogance and sense of self righteousness than any black man I have encountered.
