You missed out the bit about him shooting an unarmed teenager 6 times, twice in the head and being directly responsible for the disorder in Ferguson.

So much for the family unit. Turns out that the murderer Darren Wilson came from bad stock, his thrice married mother was a convicted felon who preyed on her neighbors.

Mother of policeman who shot dead Michael Brown was 'a serial con artist who defrauded thousands of dollars from neighbors in stolen credit card scheme'

Neighbor's claim Wilson's mother was a known con artist
She would allegedly befriend people in the community and steal their identifies to take out loans and rack up credit card debt
Durso died when her son - now 28 - was about 18.
Neighbors claim the policeman accused of shooting dead an unarmed teenager in St Louis had a serial con woman for a mother, MailOnline can reveal.
Darren Wilson?s mother Tonya Durso won the trust of her neighbors then cheated them out of hundreds of thousands of dollars by stealing their identities and taking out vast loans and credit card debt.
At the time she committed the offenses she was on parole for similar crimes elsewhere the state and afterwards died at the age of 35 under mysterious circumstances.
Neighbors today revealed how they were stunned that Wilson became a police officer after his mother behaved so deviously towards them.

Wilson was finally named on Friday by police in Ferguson, a suburb of St Louis, in Missouri that has been torn apart by five nights of protests and rioting over the death of Michael Brown, 18.
Wilson accused by witnesses of shooting him even though he had his hands up.
Ferguson police only disclosed his name after coming under intense pressure and facing lawsuits by civil liberties groups.
Wilson is 28 and currently lives in Crestwood, a suburb of St Louis which is 94 per cent white and 1.6 per cent black.
His house is a $180,000 bungalow with a pool and a basketball hoop in the drive on a sleepy street in a neighborhood that one resident described as 'solidly middle class'.
But Wilson?s life has not always been so idyllic.
He grew up in St Peters, another majority white suburb of St Louis, where his family were popular and well thought of - until his mother?s deception was exposed.
She had three children by at least two different men and lived with her husband at the time in a large detached bungalow on the leafy street.
Mickelle Gordon, 39, a dental assistant, lived over the road from the family and said that Wilson's mother was ?charismatic? and ?charming? and first targeted her brother Jason, who lost tens of thousands including some of his pension.
Gordon said: ?He used to work lots and saved all his money. She said that she was an investor and that she could help him.
?She got his social security number and stole his identity. She used it to take out loans, credit cards and went through his savings. He never got it back?.

After that she fooled Gordon?s mother Sandy Finney, 67, an office manager, and stole her ID too.
Finney said: ?My husband and I were naive. She cleaned us out for at least $100,000 and $30,000 in cash which we didn?t get back.?
She explained that his mother used to intercept her mail and sent of for pre-approved credit cards that she would use herself.
She got into do much debt that she had to take out one loan after another just to keep the scam afloat.
Finney claimed that Wilson's mother made a copy of the key they had left by the front door to let herself in when she wanted, using the cover story that she was letting the cat back in the house.
But really she was forwarding her calls from creditors to her own number so Finney had no idea how much debt she was in.

The charade came tumbling down in February 2001 when Finney was told by her own bank that she could not deposit any money and the authorities were alerted.
According to public records Wilson's mother pleaded guilty to six counts of forgery and one count of stealing at the 11th Judicial Court in St Louis.
In 1998 she had already admitted another six counts of stealing in an unrelated matter.
His mother's victims say however that she did not serve any time in jail and went into bankruptcy in October 2002
The following month she died.
Finney said: ?They were not able to tell us if it was a suicide. As a victim you are not told anything?.
Only afterwards did she discover that his mother was on probation in Washington, Missouri, for doing something similar to somebody else.
Finney added: ?I?m surprised Wilson passed the background checks to become a policeman. People can change but that was a bad home. His mother was a serial conwoman?.
Wilson's mother died when he would have been 16.

What effect that had on him at that age is unclear, but it appears that he bounced around the St Louis area at a number of addresses.
At the age of 22 for reasons only Wilson knows, he signed up to join the police and live a life on the other side of the law from that which his mother chose.
At Wilson?s current home, neighbors knew nothing of his dark family past and their biggest concern was that rioters would come and wreck the street if they found out where he lived.
A female school teacher told MailOnline: ?Our neighborhood didn't do anything wrong. I'm worried people are going to come up here and start looting.
'They just moved in and seemed like nice people.
'Things are pretty quiet round here'.
Nobody answered at the door when MailOnline visited.
A husband and wife in their 60s who had lived in the neighborhood for many years said that it was full of respectable people.
The man said: 'Crime is not really an issue around here. The biggest thing we have to worry about is the occasional party from teenagers but we don't have any at the moment?
In a surprising twist, it can also be revealed that Wilson won a commendation for 'extraordinary effort in the line of duty' in February, according to NBC's Tom Winter.
He spent four years with the Ferguson police department and two previous years in the Jennings district, Winter said.
Neighbors told USA Today that Wilson was 'tall and slim' and was often seen walking his dog.
Another neighbor, Ron Gorski, told USA Today: 'He's a young guy. 'Things happen and it's a complicated situation. I feel for the family and the entire country.'
Ferguson police chief Thomas Jackson said the shooting had been 'devastating, absolutely devastating' to Wilson, adding: 'We had no complaints about the officer. He was a gentleman. A quiet officer. He has been an effective officer.'

Thanks JCmanH8, I had not seen this picture, no doubt part of some vast liberal media conspiracy. It does indeed lend credence to your theory that Mike Brown was a large black male.
It's probably best if you stick to posting pictures from now on, I know you don't like reading articles.

Here's a picture of the murderer Darren Wilson. As you can see he is a fine genetic specimen. Ape arms that reach down to his knees, ears that look like they can pick up Direct TV and a magnificent dome topped off with the ever-popular male pattern baldness.

If MB was white this wouldn't happen - not because he wouldn't be shot dead (he would) but because no one would care.



Well you certainly have low reading comprehension and you clearly have difficulty constructing sentences and expressing yourself. So my pity stands.
I made no claim, I posted an article which you read and that lump of pork fat you call a brain processed it as meaning there was a group of white supremacists in Ferguson, MO.

White supremacy is the real culprit in Ferguson. The excuses just prove it
Home away from home

White supremacy is the real culprit in Ferguson. The excuses just prove it.

We?ve had enough of the police brutality, of the colorblind mythologies and post-racial rhetoric, of the sweet-talk, of the calls for non-violence; of mass incarceration and systemic poverty, of trigger happy cops and crying black mothers, of the Eric Garners and Renisha McBrides, the Michael Browns and Tarika Wilsons; of black tears and white terror. Dr Martin Luther King Jr said in 1968: ?A riot is the language of the unheard?. Today, nearly 50 years later, black America demands to not only be heard but heeded ? by any means necessary.

This week in Ferguson, Missouri, there has been more backlash over the resistance of a few black (and some white) protestors than the violence of white police. Meanwhile, according to organizers on the ground, it has mainly been (white) outsiders inciting violence to promote their own agenda. As the writer Sarah Kendzior tweeted: ?White people coming to STL to provoke police violence against black residents and get them blamed?. More than blamed: black people are left to bear the brunt of the political mess white infiltration leaves behind, be it by the National Guard or outside organizers.

As Sean Beale, a 27-year-old local, told the Guardian: ?If you don?t live here you don?t worry about the burning and looting. You don?t worry about stores closing, or losing your job, or walking for miles to buy food.?

But to focus more on the people?s resistance than the police repression that created it ? even as tensions cooled in the streets on Monday night ? is to participate in the dehumanization and devaluing of black life. To ignore the elders rallying for the sake of our babies and young people peacefully protesting on behalf of our future while some (white) visitors instigate disarray is morally reprehensible. Beyond Ferguson, the pattern is clear. Blacks are always to blame, even as we are brutalized by police, ghettoized by neoliberal policies, and disenfranchised by a racist criminal (in)justice system.

But that?s the crux of white supremacist racial logic: the problem with black people is ? well, black people ? not mass incarceration and the deindustrialization of urban America, not educational inequality and generational poverty, not 400 years of slavery, lynchings, and Jim Crow. To be black in America is to be victimized and then made responsible for our victimization. We built this country. But, apparently, it is we who are lazy and dependent. We are bullied politically, socially and economically. But it is we who are called ?thugs?.

?There is never an excuse for violence against police,? President Obama said. Yet there are endless excuses for state violence against black people. For mass incarceration, there?s the ?war on drugs?. For poverty and unemployment, there?s ?a culture of laziness? and ?government dependence?. For the educational gap, there?s the burden of ?acting white?. For Eric Garner: ?loosies?. And for Michael Brown, there are stolen cigarillos, jaywalking or anything the police can say to shift the narrative from their white supremacist practices to black ?ghetto? culture.

It is to say that black lives do not matter, that our babies deserve death and despair, that our communities don?t deserve protection and justice.

Obama needs post-racialism like Bush needed the ?war on terror?: to camouflage our contradictions, to exercise global dominance vis-?-vis a (neo)liberal-democratic narrative, to lie to the world. But with the numbers of black bodies unemployed, incarcerated and extrajudicially executed, what are to we to do?

No one person knows.

But we must act collectively and courageously. Alongside the immediate arrest of Darren Wilson, we must demand the demilitarization of law enforcement as well as the decriminalization of the black body. In addition to the withdrawal of the curfew and National Guard, we must demand the withdrawal of apartheid police forces and local governments where a black majority is ruled by a white minority. We cannot depend on the same police force that killed Brown to liberate us. In Ferguson and across the nation we must push for the implementation of community-oriented police models that include prevention, problem-solving, citizen engagement and community partnerships. There needs to be a cop-watch program in every city across America with a high concentration of people of color.

Also, we must recognize that naming Wilson as the killer without naming white supremacy as the culprit fails to address the root of racialized police violence. We must recognize, as Malcolm X did, that police brutality is a human rights issue that will not be solved simply by the passing of legislation. Our rallies must spark revolutionary action. Our marching must evolve into a sustainable movement. We must see that this is bigger than Brown and Wilson, than Ferguson or New York City. This is about the value of black life in 21st-century America.

Or you could maybe check the facts that the lying murdering pigs are disseminating, but of course that would include some actual brain work instead of posting any link that backs up your opinion of "these people".

Look at the photos in JcmanH8's link. The suspect is clearly wearing those awful sports sandals.
Now go look at the picture of Mike Brown's body as he lay dead for hours in the street, he is wearing sneakers.
Where is the red baseball cap that the robber was wearing?
Mike Brown was confronted 10 minutes after the robbery.

Thanks for the update, Himmler. I am now completely in agreement with you. Being a suspect in a $50 cigar robbery is complete justification for shooting an unarmed teenager with his hands above his head.
You also failed to mention that the brave pig has finally been named as Darren Wilson.

I'm certain that JCman8 is rabid that the militarized keystone police force were stood down and replaced with Highway Patrolmen with a (sharp wheeze as JCman8 draws air into his tired lungs through cheeto stained lips) A BLACK MAN at the helm and (a crash as JCman8 knocks over a warm Miller High Life as his fleshy forearm raises his hand to his pallid, sweaty brow) that order was restored and the protests largely peaceful.
For me the real news story last night was these guys -

Nope, I called you out as a vile racist pig, and that is what you are.
You started this thread, not about a young black man being murdered, but about the reaction to that murder. You don't give a shit about those businesses, it is just an excuse for you to rant about "those people".
If anybody is making excuses for indefensible behavior, it is you making excuses for your racism.
Please elaborate on the persecution and suffering you have undergone as a race.

I'm sure Mike Brown's parents would rather have their son back and starting school, as he was due to do.
The police shot an unarmed kid, then let his body lie in the streets for hours while they militarized the neighborhood. I don't think looting is an appropriate response, but I can see why it happened.
You on the other hand would rather focus on the reaction than the action because it fits your racial agenda.
You are a vile, racist pig, and I'm calling you on it.

Rainbow Ice invented in Jersey City?
Home away from home
Home away from home


I am researching the history of frozen desserts in Jersey City for a personal project.
I have heard from a few sources that the Rainbow ice/snowcone was invented right here in Jersey City at Marion Fruit Ice on Logan Avenue. The story goes that lemon, coconut and cherry were, at the time, the least popular flavors and somebody had the idea to combine them. Thus was born a frozen treat that was both visually pleasing to children and tasty to adults and children alike.
I would be interested in any further info on this, or any other ice cream stories any old-timers might have.
Our unique immigrant culture and our history as a transportation hub created the ideal environment for the creation of frozen desserts.
Refrigeration engineers were abundant due to all the warehouses, fruit and milk passed through here on its way to NY and artisanal immigrants from Sicily and Southern Italy were flooding in with their culinary knowledge.
I believe this is a part of JC history that deserves some attention, I also believe it may be the origin of the term Chilltown.
