If you were “noble” enough to burn down a black-owned business in the Ferguson protests this week, then you’re ahead in Time magazine’s “person of the year” poll!

From the article:
Ferguson protestors have gained the lead in TIME’s Person of the Year poll, with seven days to go in the voting.
Unrest in Ferguson and around the country focused attention on race and policing, helping to lift Ferguson protestors into first place in the TIME reader poll with 10.7% of the vote. Thousands of demonstrators marched in solidarity with the family of Michael Brown, an unarmed black man who was shot by the police, disrupting Black Friday shopping in San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Seattle and other cities.
Congratulations you maggot on the festering racial wound of America!!
