MSNBC had a woman (state senator) on earlier suggesting a race war is on and the host didn't question her on it a bit.

All the guests I saw thought it was a travesty and many suggested it was race based.

Haven't watched Fox for comparison but MSNBC was in full race mode at least until 10 CDT (when I stopped watching)

I believe you, it's hard to watch 3 channels at once and not miss a few things. :)

Fox interviewed the family lawyer and a couple community "leaders". It was sad to hear them speak.

Residents asking us why fire department not doing anything

Maybe you shouldn't be lighting fires and looting and they could respond?

I don't blame the family or their lawyer for seeing this as a tragic outcome. If it was my kid I'd think the exact same thing.

It's the people who are not emotionally connected that become the problem.

There's been at least one person shot. I believe it was near the Walgreen's. EMS was refusing to respond until LE could confirm that the area was secure. Didn't specify severity of injury or how it may have happened.

It is tragic. It's also tragic that these people only care about their kids after something like this happens.

An honest question, and maybe one addressed earlier, but does anyone else feel that Obama's impromptu press conference was ill-advised, and his wishywashy speech did nothing to help disarm the situation. In fact, imo, it seemed more likely to encourage what is happenning. His speech and mannerisms were such as to not support the findings of the grand jury, but more to suggest they had gotten it wrong.

And lg, before you have an aneurysm, this has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with the way Obama worded his speech.
