Ferguson shooting: What do mothers tell their children?
The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

They need to tell them to stop listening to gangster rap because it makes them behave like the rappers which are low life idiots. Send them to church instead so they can learn to behave like ladies and gentlemen instead of thugs and whores.

Don't draw attention to yourself from the cops because they suck. And my kid saw up close and personal how much they suck. Try reporting attempted rape and learn just how little they give a monkey's butt. Treat victims like criminals and say "well at least it wasn't a completed rape" yeah great that only happened because she pulled a knife on the then naked attacker. So tell all the kids cops suck unless you are rich and or famous otherwise you are really on your own.

Don't commit a strong arm robbery then walk down the middle of the road – but most of all don't try to take a policeman's gun from him 'cos you're liable to get shot.

Here's what they tell their children:
1) Don't steal things.
2) Walk on the pavement.
3) Don't attack police officers.
4) Don't charge at an officer with his gun trained on you.
If only Michael Brown's mother had told him he would still be alive.
"but mom, why the rioting?"
"Well, Leftist media like the BBC like to ignore the facts of the case and instead bring race into it. Thus getting everyone riled up at the justified shooting of a dumb thug, still any old excuse to loot I suppose"

Very easy…tell them not to steal, obey authorities, respect people and property. Michael Brown stole from the store, threatened the cashier and then confronted police. Things escalated and got shot. Tragic but not unavoidable. Don't idolize wrongdoers.

Respect from both sides is what is needed, but I don't live there so I can only speak from my experience in life.
