Everyone is covering Ferguson, even the beautiful state that is really Canadian territory, and I too actually want a piece of this story, as the journalist poet clogged with too many ideas, but my courage will be tested if I plow ahead. I have my own idea and want my own source, though of course most of my content will be based on attribution, attribution to whom I do not yet know, but Reuters is in the running-- and perhaps once in awhile I need to forget about trending topics.
It might be a test of courage, however. I regret that the young man may have died as the result of an alleged bad shooting. I have no reason not to feel regret, but looting and the destruction of retail businesses is not a lesson on civics and policing, and the minorities in St. Louis diminish sympathy by engaging in such regressive antics. I never did any of this as part of the activist community in Philadelphia. Years ago I blew up at a Paratransit driver, but fighting CCT Connect brandishes the soul with Josef K's default condemnation.
