I really hoped this topic wouldn't appear on FB, we all know how these conversations end.

I would think that we could all agree that looting/violence is never good, I didn't really post how I felt about the outcome of the verdict [emoji4]

Omg... Laying in bed after Macy's parade practice & can't sleep... & for some reason I thought hmm, maybe I should check my email, probably still don't have any acceptances but why not look....I GOT INTO COLLEGE. Not only did I get into my #1, but I got the discounted out of state tuition, which I had to get in order for my mom to let me go (she is paying for my college). Now I really can't sleep :cloud9:

My heart goes out to all the families of the officers in Ferguson. My dad is a police officer and I remember having panic attacks in elementary school because I was terrified that my dad was going to go to work and not come back.

They did end it where I thought they would! It was such a good movie! I agree, I love how they made "The Hanging Tree," I actually just got it from iTunes and am listening to it right now. I love how they stayed honest to the book but added in and took out somethings. It can be hard to make books into movies and still keep the integrity of the book yet make it into an entertaining movie, and I think they have done SO WELL in doing that. I liked having the extra action scenes, it really got me into the movie and seeing President Snow conversations, and it really made you understand there was a war going on. Some parts were hard to watch, but I'm not a big war movie fan, which is essentially what the movies are now, but they're still so good and I would go see it again for sure.

The ending was kinda perfect. And very predictable. I agree with everything you said. Everything. Such a perfect summary of the movie. Ugh i'm just in love!!

My dad was a police officer too. He was in a situation where he had to use his gun. If he hadn't shot this person, he absolutely would have lost his life. I was around ten when it happened. The person he shot was sixteen and part of a local gang, and the gang retaliated by spray painting death threats towards my dad around town. We had a 24 hour surveillance on our house and school for months. It was probably one of the scariest things I've ever experienced.

The person he shot lived. He went on to commit several violent felonies and is now serving life in state prison. Scary stuff!!

You have severely overrated the value of my shimmy.


ETA. Just heard a police car with ammunition inside was set on fire. You can hear the bullets discharging in the background of the news report I just heard

I was at our local superior courthouse last night for our mock trial semi finals when the Ferguson news was released. Even though I'm in a completely different state, the courthouse was on heightened security and the judges who were presiding over the competition were instructed to tell the competing teams to leave downtown immediately after our trials finished to avoid any possible riots. There were a few people protesting outside the courthouse when we left, but thankfully nothing violent.

At practice tonight we were working on our pyramid and one of the girls flipping is in cheer this year for the first time. I get that she's new and all but when my coach was telling her how to tuck she said "but I have to flip my own body?" Ya girl, obviously no ones going to do it for you.

We had a girl who was a bracer in the pyramid (first year cheering) and she asked if she is supposed to pull up or pull down when the other flyer is flipping up to extension. yea.... please, pull her down :confused:

I was just standing in the back watching them because my flyer is currently in a cast. So I wasn't really paying attention but when I heard that I'm sure my face was priceless, my jaw dropped.

I have a lot of mixed feelings on ferguson, they also started releasing more photo evidence yesterday and today, which makes me even more baffled on a lot of things.
