Why?
Does he want to put all the residents in a concentration camp?

Of course, the president cannot “declare martial law”. However, the law means nothing, so if this gets thru regardless of not being a legal declaration, we are sunk...

Its taking place in a very small area in one city in one state.
Obviously that calls for federal govt involvement and military force.

NOT GONNA HAPPEN...
As I have said, this is Dem-on-Dem violence. Democrat slave voters, in a town run by Democrats, in a state with a Dem Governor.
The LAST thing they want is a reminder of Democrats like Bull Connor going out across the airwaves.
The local protestors are already on video saying that Obama and the Dems sold them out, but you’ll note how the media is suppressing that, because it doesn’t fit the narrative.

If I am not mistaken, I believe that the Governor must declare Marshal Law, not the President. Missouri is a sovereign state. Their leader ids the Governor.
This is the reason why Bush took so much guff, as the Governor of Louisiana was responsible for declaring a State of Emergency and formally requesting federal aid during Katrina.

“unarmed black teen “
since he was “unarmed”, he couldn’t possibly have been a threat to anyone...
This is the only reason they keep repeating this word.

....” protesters continue to clash with police in Ferguson”.....
This isn’t anything to do with the kids death...this is the population warring with the cops...and the protesters have been saying such from the first nights riots.

Does Mr. Lewis not realize the people he wants to put under marshal law ate primarily OdumBO voters. Or, does he want law enforcement help them loot, which, Bolshecrats have experience with looting taxpayers.

This riot maybe but a step in the consolidation of black control over the St. Louis area.

Hm. Under full martial law, what do they do with looters? When "they" = this regime, the answer is: "They'll deputize them."

I have no problem with martial law being called for. These people don’t know how to control their emotions let alone their mob actions...... It should have been called the first night after they rampaged the area. They all knew it would come to violence when it got started.
