I purposely haven't posted anything about Ferguson, but I do have a somewhat slanted view. My daddy was a police commissioner for a short time. I also feel a lot of sympathy for anyone who loses a child, especially violently.
One of the most valuable lessons that ANY child needs to learn in school is WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU ARE STOPPED BY THE POLICE!! First and foremost: the police, no matter how corrupt you may think they are, are entitled to the respect of their badge. Keep cool. Say yes, sir, yes, ma'am. Keep your hands at 10 and 2 on the steering wheel. Shut up and lawyer up. I firmly feel that this should be taught from kindergarten and repeated every year.
