MANCHESTER, Mo. (AP) — Dozens of people interrupted holiday shopping at major retailers around the St. Louis area late Thursday and early Friday to speak out about a grand jury's decision not to indict the officer who shot and killed Michael Brown.
Other Black Friday protests were planned in shopping centers around the nation. One in the St. Louis suburb of Kirkwood drew five people, one with a sign reading "Black lives matter." All five, who stood by a car, declined to be interviewed on Friday morning.
Earlier in the day, about two dozen people chanted "no justice, no peace, no racist police" and "no more Black Friday" after police moved them out of a Wal-Mart in Manchester, another St. Louis suburb.
Officers warned the protesters risked arrest if they didn't move at least 50 feet from the store's entrance, then began advancing in unison until the protesters moved further into the parking lot. The mostly black group of protesters chanted in the faces of the officers — most of whom were white — as shoppers looked on.
"We want to really let the world know that it is no longer business as usual," said Chenjerai Kumanyika, an assistant professor at Clemson University. Johnetta Elzie, who had been tweeting and posting videos of the protests, said demonstrations occurred at a Wal-Mart and Target in Brentwood, two Wal-Marts in St. Charles and one Wal-Mart in Manchester.

The thugs keep annoying the heck out of the country.
You made your point. Now its time to move on.
Hands up. Can’t loot.
Don’t expect this one to be very popular among the “protesters.”
I doubt they would mind it, and that would only be giving the gutter dwellers ammo.
There is a disconnect here. Maybe it is just the desire to pillage and plunder.
They’d like to redistribute the wealth in the white suburbs but they’re not that stupid.
There are no soft targets there for them to loot and burn down.
Retail Store Owners make more profit with typical 20% to 50% Black Friday Sales, as opposed to 100% Black Friday Sales.
“We want to really let the world know that it is no longer business as usual,”
All they have told us for months is that it IS business as usual; they haven’t improved their lot at all. In fact, they are much worse off than five years ago.
Fifty years of freebies did nothing for them.
Its funny they’re complaining when they got off kinda easy on Brown Monday.
They lack gratitude.
Not to mention the smokin’ ruins in Ferguson.
But they b*tch and whine its all Whitey’s fault.
People are tuning them out.
5 wounded in shootings in Chicago on Thanksgiving Day

No one cares.
Blacks killing blacks will never make national headlines.
No racist white cop to blame.
If “Black lives matter”, professor, why are you not protesting daily in Chicago? Blacks are being slaughtered in the streets there daily.
Yup. Black America could less its committing auto-genocide.
But it can blame all its problems on Da Man. That crutch though, is getting old.
” “Black lives matter.” “
Obviously they don’t to the blacks that attack armed cops, kill each other at active war zone rates and abort themselves into a population decline. Same goes for any other race that does likewise.
If they mattered, they wouldn’t have pillaged and ransacked Ferguson.
The black moocher class are like ungrateful, unruly, mongrel dogs. They don’t do anything but eat, crap and urinate all over the house, chew the furniture, bark and howl all night, then bite your hand when you go to feed them.
As if they weren’t already a huge enough drag and pain in the arse to the nation, they ruined Thanksgiving for many thousands of decent, solid citizens with their childish whining, tantrums, looting and arson.
Now they are determined to ruin Christmas for as many as possible.
They are thankless, whining, crybaby, parasites and it is far past the time when they should be cut off from Uncle Sam’s teat and turned out on their own to either rejoin mainstream America as productive citizens or fade into oblivion.
If black lives matter, then why are blacks destroying black communities and burning down black businesses?
I can only hope the decent black people run s far and as fast as they can from the ferals amidst them. Wall it and any other stronghold the Democrat created ferals have off from western civilization and let the rest have at it.
They don’t want to do anything but kill each other/anyone else and get paid for the privilege. So we should do what we can to get good people out of those ratholes and let the idiots meet Darwin.
