Word is Obama has been meeting with the Ferguson protest leaders.

The word is a fact:

Obama Met With Ferguson Activists – Said He's Concerned They 'Stay on Course'

"President Obama met with Ferguson protest leaders on November 5th, the day after the midterm elections. The meeting was not on his daily schedule. He was concerned that the protesters “stay on course.”

'The New York Times hid this in the 21st paragraph of their report:

But leaders here say that is the nature of a movement that has taken place, in part, on social media and that does not match an earlier-era protest structure where a single, outspoken leader might have led the way. “This is not your momma’s civil rights movement,” said Ashley Yates, a leader of Millennial Activists United. “This is a movement where you have several difference voices, different people. The person in charge is really — the people. But the message from everyone is the same: Stop killing us.”

What does that even mean? Stay on what course? That can mean anything and thus can encourage them to do whatever they most feel like doing.

Criminal.
