Just a quick question .......

and I'm off to work.

What happens the NEXT time some roided out cop shoots and unarmed black kid? Ferguson has calmed down, but the underlying problems are still there. Will this uprising continue? Or will it continue to be disconnected actions, localized and not getting at the root of a national problem?

Without getting a handle on that it's hard to know exactly what fix to apply. I think making police more accountable to the communities they police is a good start.
