it is obvious there is a major distinction in coverage.

The Ferguson incident has doubts surrounding it and yet there was displayed group outrage demanding something be done by somebody for something not yet understod in it's entirety.

The beheading of Americans accompanied by statements bragging not only about doing so, but bragging to do more as well as targeting all Americans has no doubts what so ever.

But where is the outrage? Where are the catalysts like Jackson and Sharpton et al to stir the public. Where are the cameras and reporters seeking demonstrations of the American public?

Yes, some of us display our feelings on forums like TOTV and some of us call and write our lawmakers and some of us write to Obama. But there is no groundswell of public outrage demanding something to be done.

Until those who govern our lives in Washington see the uprising of we the people they will continue POLITICS AS USUAL relying on a lethargic and apothetic public.....that too automatically will also go back to business as usual.

Where is the public outcry?

Is it that we have become manageable.....I do believe that to be the case.....UNFORTUNATELY for us.
No Bill.

Some of us never march. But we think and we write and we vote.
