Times Square Shut Down By Thousands Marching As Ferguson Protests Spin-Off Across The Country
Daily Mail ^ | 14 August 2014 | By Josh Gardner For Mailonline and Louise Boyle For Mailonline

The fifth night of demonstrations in support of gunned down Ferguson, Missouri teen Michael Brown saw scores of protesters marching through the streets of New York in a vigil that culminated in Times Square Thursday night.

Tensions flared as some protestors attempted to shove their way through a police barricade set up in their path toward the beating heart of the city.

Police held their own and tempers soon calmed, but as night gripped New York, the already congested Times Square ground to a halt as thousands flowed into the streets to demand an end to police brutality and militarization and justice for 18-year-old Brown.

I can only think it’ll be worse since rioters can communicate and give each other addresses and other info on how to avoid the cops; by broadcasting it, the media will inadvertently enable others to coordinate rioting and also be encouraged.

Hey if they are rioting against the militarization of the police that may not be such a bad idea.

“All this is coming straight from Rat Party Headquarters.The Senate is at stake after all!”

I think you are right, but I don’t think this is going to help them. Can they really count on these rioters to show up to vote in November? There’s a much better chance they’ll just tick off white people enough to show up and pull the R lever.

THE WORLD IS FALLING APART - VOTE FOR THE PRESIDENT’S TEAM

It just ain’t a winning slogan.

Liberals and Hipsters already have the defanged police that they have wanted.

“Sorry about the five teeth knocked out and the concussion and the PBR spilled and the 3 grams of your pot stolen, but really sir I need to go down the block now and make a similar report for another of your neighbors. If we see anyone matching the description you gave we will look at them funny and tell other officers to be on the lookout for them. We won’t be able to arrest them because that might violate their rights.”

This is why I think that the slime-balls will finally get a taste of ‘dirty diversity’ as I call it. Their security will fire on the protestors and the protestors will get worked up and push through, attacking the security and then storming the apartments/mansions. At this point, escalation is inevitable.

Oh the irony.

I was concerned this would go national.

Each time these blacks spread out and attack more police, then the Republicans will be voted in en-masse and then Obama will be neutralized with the full backing of the majority of the country.

And this is the reason Lincoln has 5 tons of concrete and a steel cage at rest.

So he can't spin in his grave?

And blood; this is something else; if it were just loot, it would have calmed down by now, but it hasn’t.

They couldn’t act out over Trayvon, but this is their main chance to trigger a war. One ‘martyr,’ then the riot, then marching into upper class neighborhoods where there are a huge percentage of homeowners with guns, who then fight to protect their families, which means that blacks will use it as an excuse to attack even more ferociously.

If this happens, the entire country is going to be ripped to shreds.

They will be more reluctant in towns like Louisville, where there are a LOT of CCW people hanging around.

Now it is; I think these protestors don’t understand what this is going to lead to.

I think Louisville is going to end up in flames too; right now, the blacks WANT retaliation from whites.

I understand now; what a complete disgrace this is. Lincoln did so much and now he’s dead and his memory has been desecrated by the spoiled minorities he commissioned the Union army to fight for. Union military men have been shown to have died in vain for these spoiled brats.

“be sure to target white neighborhoods.”

Can a run on ammo be far behind?


That’s already happened. If they do target white neighborhoods, it will be mayhem. And they will be slaughtered.

Even if they’re “unarmed”, they still have arms... with fists at one end. As George Zimmerman found out.

That too; all that muscle against a person’s head will cause horrific damage. For some reason I keep visualizing kids running around screaming in terror while the parents flee with them or end up dead.
