I'm so glad to be living in post-racial America where only 33% of whites think the police in Ferguson went too far. Too much change for the better too soon would be a little much to handle . . .

I wish I were surprised, instead of just disgusted.

I'm listening to NPR this morning, and they report about the demonstrations in Bahrain, and then they conclude "protests continue in numerous Middle Eastern and north African countries." Would it be too much to name them? If people are risking being shot to death in these places, can't you at least name the places? Yemen, Jordan, Libya, Algeria, Morocco--how bout that? And just forget the Washington Post to fill you in on just some of it unless you dig through several links deep.
