Negro Fatigue: St. Louis Post-Dispatch Admits People are Fed Up with
Black Whining
Stuff Black People Don’t Like

A black mayor is an inevitability in Ferguson; the 67 percent black city
today, that was 76 percent white in 1990 (99 percent white in 1970).
A black police chief and a majority black city council as well; after
all, Ferguson is only 27 percent white and the city becomes ‘blacker’ as
time marches forward.
But before this racial exchange of power occurs and the colonization of
Ferguson by blacks into just another East St. Louis-style city is
complete, whites are allowed a simple news story to air their
grievances. [Weariness of Ferguson protests grows, St. Louis
Post-Dispatch, 10-14-14]:
Brian Fletcher loves Ferguson. He brags about it, he rattles off
historical facts about it and, as the former mayor, he feels the urge to
stick up for the city and its people.
And right now, he says people are tired of the constant protesting,
tired of the noise and tired of feeling intimidated.
That’s the exact reaction many protest leaders said they are hoping
for.
It’s been nearly 70 days since Ferguson police Officer Darren
Wilson fatally shot Michael Brown, 18.
Since then, protests have sprung up around the region, spreading
most recently to downtown St. Louis, St. Louis University, Webster
Groves and also the Shaw neighborhood, where crowds have gathered to
protest the fatal shooting of teenager Vonderitt Myers Jr. by St. Louis
police.
In one incident, video cameras captured a heated back-and-forth
between protesters and Cardinals fans outside of Busch Stadium.
But the epicenter of the unrest is in Ferguson, and Fletcher, like
many others, says it’s hard to remember what it felt like to live in
Ferguson before the city became infamous.
On a typical day in Ferguson, there’s a persistent group of
picketers along South Florissant Road, in front of the police station,
holding signs with slogans such as: “Justice for All,” and “Black Lives
Matter.”
Ferguson resident Jill Hatcher said she used to drive by and honk
her car horn in support.
“Now I speed by with my windows up and my doors locked,” she said.
Hatcher’s fear stems from the events at night, when protesters
sometimes march in the street drumming and chanting into the early hours.
Aside from the noise, there have been shots fired, attempted arson
and some instances of looting.
Those are some of the reasons Fletcher started the “I Love
Ferguson” group that is putting up yard signs, selling T-shirts and
raising money.
So far, the group has raised more than $50,000, which Fletcher said
would be donated to businesses affected by looting.
“People around here were sympathetic at first. People wanted to
know why was he shot. And why so many times,” Fletcher said. “There
wasn’t a problem until people started feeling scared to go to the brew
house and scared to go to the farmers market.”
A QUESTION OF RACE
Fletcher, who is white, also acknowledges that persistent racial
tension underlies Ferguson’s new reality.
“I think quite frankly, Caucasians are intimidated by protesters
who think that if they can make Caucasians feel uncomfortable, they can
change the rules. And it’s working,” Fletcher said.
A number of black people also feel uncomfortable. Pam Peters has
lived in Ferguson for 37 years.
“I don’t like the way people are talking about Ferguson now,” she
said. “We are good people. We are tired of the protests.”
Peters said she didn’t think Ferguson would ever go back to how it
was before Brown’s shooting.
“We just have way too many young people who are trying to stir the
pot,” she said. “If police stop them for no reason, that’s not right.
But, not to beat a dead horse, some of them bring it on themselves.”
‘PLEASE END THIS’
Among people on both sides of the issue, many agree that a turning
point came on the night of Sept. 23, when the Ferguson Fire Department
responded to a small fire outside the Whistle Stop custard shop.
The century-old Whistle Stop building, a former train depot, is one
of Ferguson’s historic landmarks. Law enforcement reported that someone
had doused the outside of the building with gasoline.
Nearby, at Ferguson Optical, manager Tim Marrah said he was
surprised about the racial tone the protests have taken. He said one of
Ferguson’s charms was that it had always been a place where different
races mixed.
Of the protesters, Marrah said he didn’t see a need for them to
leave but rather to weed out the troublemakers.
“The protests don’t need to go anywhere,” he said. “This thing
needs to be resolved. The violence and the property damage is the
problem, not the protests.”
Down the street, at Natalie’s Cakes & More, owner Natalie Dubose
said she supported people’s right to protest, while acknowledging that
the same unrest had essentially dried up the foot traffic that she
relies on along South Florissant.
Business really took a dive when the farmers market down the street
shut for the season earlier than usual because of the protests.
At one point, Dubose said, she went two weeks without a single
customer.
“I think it’s the perception that Ferguson now has,” she said.
“People who would normally come through here now think it’s unsafe. It’s
going to be very difficult to get out from under that.”
No, it’s going to be impossible to get out from under that, Mrs. Dubose.
Get use to having no customers at your Natalie’s Cakes & More store as
the city’s white population declines, unless you plan on accepting
EBT/Food Stamps for your tasty treats.

It would be nice to get Obama and his manwife to stop whining.

I'm sure he'd say his predecessor also whined.

Wish the folks in the media would stop rewarding
whining behaviour with media coverage.
