Ferguson, Missouri (KMOV.com) – What started as a peaceful prayer vigil Saturday evening to remember a young man gunned down by police, has escalated into full scale riots and looting in Ferguson, Missouri.

Angry mobs have smashed windows, set fires and looted businesses as a massive showing of police, some wearing riot gear have moved into the area along West Florissant just south of 270.

Police are also responding to reports of shootings throughout the area. At one point, windows of a News 4 live truck were smashed out by the angry crowd.

They are looting every store that is at I-270 & West Florissant Rd. They are looting the Hibbett Sporting Goods Store now. Kmart, Office Depot, Walmart, Sam’s Club etc are all in this area and have been looted.

We should pass a law requiring that those guns be registered before they can be stolen...

Wonder what else was planned?

Well... you remember yesterday ? Some shooter at a hospital in St. Louis. Got all the LE agencies brought out in force.

That was chilling. Reminds me of 50s sci-fi flicks where the aliens broadcast warnings to the earth.

Right in the big middle of St. Louis.

See if it gets worse.

Hmm.
Wonder if there were any aerosolised fluids?
Infect the leos, then start a riot.
Lots of people infected.

Some one in the media is going to get killed since they are filming this as it happens.

It seems the news crews have been told to pull out. The live feed I was watching has been closed. Seems that the media and LE think it is best just to chill a bit.

Spreading the 'news' only encourages more participants.

Yes, they are foolish to endanger their life for a piece of footage. Reminds me of the hurricane reporters who are always at a 15 degree angle while on camera covering the wind velocity.

BTW, which video link is enabled that you recommend?

Listening to police scanner; the looting and rioting is spreading all over north metro St Louis. This is going to get worse before it gets better.

One station is riding around in an unmarked van now for their safety but still trying to get footage.

"Nothing runs like a Deere" "Nothing lies like a cop"

But if you're carrying concealed and a youth knocks you down and tries to take your pistol and you shoot him then THAT'S a totally different story because you're not a cop, right?

No, it’s not a bio attack.

It’s about offering to ‘fix’ the problem, for lots of cash.

But first, you must ensure the public ‘experiences’ the problem.

It’s only 1:00 in the a.m. there right now and sunrise isn’t until 6:11 a.m. so they have a good five hours worth of rioting and looting to accomplish.

“And the people, made powerless by their own apathy, cast off their freedoms and voluntarily put on chains of bondage to government.”

Godspeed everyone living in St Louis metro; hope everyone is armed in their homes. Until the National Guard is called out, everyone had best defend their homes!!!
