Ferguson Riots

Why are the business owners not shooting these people when they break in and start robbing them?

They would be piled up at my front door.

This is a prime example of why some one would need a 30 round mag LG.

I wonder if he's going to use the son analogy.

Was there any comparison in my post to what's going on in Ferguson? Did I blame anything that's happened so far on "troublemakers?"

Your post was confrontational to a perspective I posted in response to LG's post. And attempted to link what I posted as tacit approval for what's going on in Ferguson. Which is not the case. So yes, you assumed my post was approval for what's going on.

You are no different than the other idiots out there jumping to conclusions without knowing all the facts or doing your homework like that Tweet you posted about. A fifteen second search of the timeline of the Michael Brown shooting would have netted you the fact the Tweet came out well before he was killed. So unless the residents of Ferguson invented time travel and didn't tell anyone, you could and should have determined it to be bogus before posting. And this makes you little different than the troublemakers that are attempting to make this worse than it already is.

Please reference where I said that. It's interesting that is your take away though.

I don't give a crap about the tweet picture. The one I linked from said 1:00am, 8/14. I just posted the original tweet link.

I also find it interesting you spend the majority of your response here calling me an idiot, telling me what I assume, and harping on a picture instead of actually responding to what I originally posted, which is still apparently lost on you.

I said from the very beginning, I get what you are saying, and it makes sense. Period. But when it comes to the Ferguson stuff going on right now, that just doesn't seem to be the case. You took that and ran with it as some sort of attack on you. You are the one here finding offense when none was directed at you.

It is hard for me to believe that five days later the protesting is about this one incident. Is it about pent up frustration at what is perceived as decades of abuse and mistrust? Or is it about general mayhem for mayhem's sake?

Probably a bit of both.

The statistics I've seen about black representation in the political power structure is appalling. If they are convinced that the problem is the racial make up of the structure of running the city government, then change the racial make up of the government, don't destroy the city.

It's all about mayhem.

The black elders in the community are pissed that these thugs are doing this. They have stated that they have never had any problems.

Besides, what does stealing a tv do for the alleged victim?

All employees of county police have been advised to start changing on-line passwords and taking down critical information from on-line sources.

As stated before, what possible good can come of posting the information on the officer in question as well as his home address?

Nothing. Usually anonymous makes me laugh with their shenanigans but this one crosses the line

It's not just that officer, they are releasing names and addresses of pretty much every department involved.

From Reddit:

KSDK LIVE 12:45: "The FBI will now take over a large part of the investigation into the shooting death of Michael Brown. The FBI will oversee all operations, protests, and other activities in Ferguson. Local police agencies, including St. Louis County Police, will now operate under the direction of the FBI. We've also learned the Department of Justice will send special prosecutors to Ferguson to help with the investigation."
