Already starting again tonight, it seems. Let's use this thread for Live updates:

[Jaxter]

Thanks, but I was at that link but it just keeps looping to them shouting “What do we want-Justice!” I think their batteries may have gone.

[Crim]

Now that is direct evidence of a crime.....

[tcrlaf]

Despite the violence, and the Molotov’s, the STORY from tonight is going to be how the Media was treated and fired upon, and how the local police tried to stop coverage of this.

This should be both a lesson, and a warning to us....

Dems are trying HARD to avoid having anything to do with this, now I don’t think they can, any longer.

Thanks for the clarification.

I thought they were saying "just stuff."

Unfortunately it won’t be coming out anytime soon but it will be leaked to the press little by little to soften the impact.

Just as in the Andy Lopez case by the time the report came out 6 months later there was nothing new in it that was not already out in the public domain .

St Louis County Police say one officer injured in Ferguson MO -broken ankle - hit by a brick. - KMOV

[Marathoner]

Why he hasn’t activated the MO National Guard is something I’ll never understand.

[Uncle Chip]

Awwww jacque, you got your post deleted — I’m so sorry.

See what happens when you deliberately post slander.

[jjsheridan5]

You may not be aware of it but eyewitness testimony is what court cases are decided upon and in this case there is a lot of it.

You may not be aware of it, but eyewitness testimony is quite often wrong. Especially when the witness(es) are friends of the victim, and/or innately hostile to the accused. If the race hustlers weren't turning this into a circus, if the gimme-free-stuff crowd wasn't using this as an excuse to do some undocumented shopping, if the useful idiots weren't jumping to conclusions, then maybe we could have an actual investigation to find out what really happened. It is definitely a suspicious event, and the police do seem to be going overboard, but the point remains -- thanks to knee-jerk reactions, we may never be able to have a objective and thorough investigation where we can find out what really happened.

People buying, without question, the testimony of your "credible" witness, isn't helping matters. No matter what you might think, professional investigators don't automatically believe a witness simply because of how they speak (which was what you claimed convinced you of his credibility).

Well, on second thought..

[tcrlaf]

“Why he hasn’t activated the MO National Guard is something I’ll never understand.”

He is a DEMOCRAT...

These are DEMOCRAT Plantation Slave Voters.

The imagery of a Dem calling out the NG against blacks, is not one the Dems want out there, especially in an election year. This isn’t the EVIL REPUBLICANS doing this, remember.

It’s a Democrat-run town, with a Democrat Mayor, in a Democrat-run County, in a State with a DEMOCRAT Governor.

[Uncle Chip]

Yep — those 3 should be in the graybar hotel tomorrow morning for a lengthy stay.

[patriot08]

With all due respect, Uncle Chip, I have to disagree.
It was on Hannity tonight that the New Black Panthers are now involved, urging blacks to fight and making threats.
Death threats continue to be made to the police and their families.

Whether you realize it or not, we have been in a race war for quite some time. They feel empowered by the election of Obama- who has divided this nation as never before and he and his minions are just itching to start an all out race war.
Blacks, as never before, are determined to ‘make whitey pay’. (where do you think ‘the knock out game’ came from?)

It would not have been ‘all over’ had they ‘just walked over and arrested a few of the trouble makers.
Officers probably would have been attacked and hurt badly or even shot and killed.

The police are doing the right thing by a show of force- by showing the looters and burners that they are out-gunned and out-manned.
This ‘get whitey’ needs to be nipped in the bud, or we will have ferals eventually running wild in white neighborhoods looting and burning in other cities.

I’m not saying the police were not at fault in the shooting of the black man. We don’t know yet.

Probably, the patrolman stopped and told the thug to quit walking down the middle of the street (haven’t we all seen this? It’s a form of defiance, bullying) and the thug attacked the officer, tried for his gun and a shot went off.
The thug ran off, the officer told him to halt and when he didn’t, he lost it and filled him full of lead. Unfortunate.

Whatever happened, the officer has probably had it- what with so many ‘witnesses’ on hand.

If my post contained misinformation from another source, it should have been deleted.

I have no problem with that, for all I really care about is figuring out the closest thing to truth, not taking sides prematurely.

Hopefully you will wait for the same, and stop rushing to judgement. We will no longer be a nation of laws if we ignore due process.

Earlier when I was watching PMSNBC the lady from the NAACP was not very happy with the Gov and the Rest of the civic leaders for avoiding this.

Wrong. Try again TROLL.

It was right on in the Zimmerman case.
