ABC NEws ^ | 11-21-2014 | Josh Margolin

The FBI has sent about 100 agents to the St. Louis area to help deal with any problems that could arise from the grand jury decision in the police shooting of Ferguson teenager Michael Brown.

In addition to the FBI, other federal agencies have also mobilized staffers to get to St. Louis today, sources told ABC News.

A decision by the grand jury is expected soon, but St. Louis authorities said today that the grand jury is still meeting. The panel will decide whether or not to indict Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson for shooting Brown, who was unarmed, on Aug. 9.

The whole thing might make a nice dry-run practice for a shtf scenario; sort of like when Hitler used the Spanish Civil War to test out weapons and tactics. Go (prepped) Fergasonians!

Well, somebody has to protect the rioters.

Rioting and looting is one of their human rights, and Holder will make sure that no one takes that right away.

Hey rioters: Go for the ultra high-definition TVs.

PSYCHOLOGY-101
If you start with a cage containing five monkeys, and inside the cage hang a banana on a string from the top, and then you place a set of stairs under the banana, before long a monkey will go to the stairs and climb toward the bananAs soon as he touches the stairs, you spray ALL the monkeys with cold water.
After a while another monkey makes an attempt with same result — ALL the monkeys are sprayed with cold water. Pretty soon when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it.
Now, put the cold water away.
Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new monkey. The new monkey sees the banana and attempts to climb the stairs. To his shock, ALL of the other monkeys beat the Monkey Crap out of him.
After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs he will be assaulted.Next, remove another of the original five monkeys, replacing it with a new monkey.
The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment — with enthusiasm — because he is now part of the “team.”
Then, replace a third original monkey with a new monkey, followed by the fourth, then the fifth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked.
Now, the monkeys that are beating him up have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs. Neither do they know why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey.
Finally, having replaced all of the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys will have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, not one of the monkeys will try to climb the stairway for the banana.Why, you ask? Because in their minds, that is the way it has always been!

Welcome to Ferguson.

Currently 42 degrees in St. Louis. A 50 percent chance of rain, mainly after 7pm. Cloudy, with a temperature rising to around 44 by 5am. South wind 7 to 10 mph

This shows God's on our side... Heavy icy rain would be better... but any cold rain will do... The agents of chaos and lies aren't gonna be happy about being rained out. LOL - citizens will be safer... all of 'em. Thank God.

I have to drive through St. Louis in the next month or so. I wished that the grand jury would hurry up, so that if there are any riots, things will settle down before I have to go through town.

The FBI is on the same side as the DOJ. Some individual FBI agents may still value the constitution, but those in the leadership positions do not.

The idea is to incite violence, create a race war and provide more justification for the militarized police state, federalization of local police, and beta tests for local/regional martial law. The Feds will use this case to evaluate tactics, infiltration techniques, communication devices, perhaps even novel weapons.

The feds are there only to make sure the cops stand down and let the ferals burn the place to the ground like Holder and Prez Stay the Course wants them to.

You might want to save the popcorn for another day. Looks like the decision won't come down until after Thanksgiving.

In meantime, it's turkey and football.

Is that where they did that???

I thought it really nice to see a flash mob do that song.

There’s another nice one too - Beethoven’s Ode to Joy. Starts out with a stand up bassist, then cello, then a violinist walks out... pretty soon, there’s a whole freaking orchestra playing.

Awesome stuff..

I saw a cool movie on TCM this evening, “Duel” (1971) with Fritz Weaver of “Gunsmoke” fame. He passes some truck in his car and the psycho (unseen, played by a stunt man) driver spends the whole movie harassing and trying to kill him.
