Based on my experience, the state troopers are going to amp up the intensity even more...not the most cordial bunch. They may have less military-style equipment, though, so it may improve the optics for awhile.
If you don’t like your Law Enforcement Agency you can get a new one!
Last I checked the Law is The Law no matter who enforces it!
Looks like a great community to raise a family buy a house and start a business!
fox2now.com, which has been doing very good coverage of the events there, just said that capt. ron johnson, who is a black man, had met with some of the protesters that were currently protesting, and was currently walking with them while they marched.
Nothing like tear gassing and arresting the media to enhance your credibility. :-)
After four days is there anything left to steal?
I heard there are still work boots that no one has stolen.
Build a fence.
Are we talking Broderick Crawford or Ponch and Jon?
"Whenever the laws of any state are broken, a duly authorized organization swings into action. It may be called the State Police, State Troopers, Militia, the Rangers... or the Highway Patrol. These are the stories of the men whose training, skill and courage have enforced and preserved our state laws."

from my research watching the Wire.....
Over and over we heard “this is not us” “we are not like this”
It is or rather was true. the black residents of Ferguson are all refugees that fled from the city to the county, the suburbs. the migration, the exodus , began a long time ago. it was long enough that the riffraff, the black urban culture of the streets followed.
the sad fact is ........ “we have become like that”.

the black urban subculture destroys what ever it touches including the black middle class suburban

Wow! That was great!
The guy can play.
What a talent!
What fraction of the rioters are “local” and what fraction “outsiders”?
“In wars prior to Viet Nam, in all recorded history, only 15% of front line soldiers used lethal force, 85% shot over the enemy’s head, just postured and blustered to scare the enemy into retreating. “
uh, right. Battle of Gettysburg ... 50k dead in three days. I am guessing that more than 15% were aiming to kill ...
The correct response to riots is to call in overwhelming force and shut them down. Anything less will further incite the situation. Seriously, you do NOT stand by and let rioters riot, looters loot, and the city burn.
Anything less than an overwhelming response will embolden the criminal thugs running around in the night looting and burning, and further feed into the mob mentality. But, then, we see by the way the media and federal government incite these events and intentionally inflame racial sentiments that this is REALLY what they want to happen.
And the reason why the feral “utes” will not throw rocks and molotov cocktails at state troopers is?? I think the sentiment “F*** ‘tha police!” might not end with a change of agency.
Tonight will tell us a lot about the motives of the crowd.

“uh, right.”
Lots of people who don’t know better like to quote BS like that from Grossman. Grossman’s claims are just as absurd and mind-numbingly stupid as they sound, and backed by about as much hot air as you’d expect.
The ratio of fire crap needs to die, seriously people, someone calling himself a “Killologist” and claiming to have founded a new field of science called “killology” threw around make-believe numbers to add visceral impact to his false-thesis. Those numbers are fabrications. Grossman was quoting a journalist (Marshall) employed by the army who outright fabricated those numbers.
Quoting Grossman is a good way to prove that you don’t know the first thing about the subject, and that you don’t have the good sense to check your sources before you make absurd claims.
What fraction are new locals that were former but socially unacceptable outsiders from the city should be the question.
Furgeson has a class problem it will not admit
