Thousands gathered Saturday for a second day of organized rallies and marches protesting Michael Browns death and other fatal police shootings in the St. Louis area and nationwide.
The events remained peaceful but boisterous gatherings into the night.

For the same reason my wife and her friends would drive the 90 miles from Altus, OK to Wichita Falls, TX - shopping trip...
Anything for a buck.
From my perspective, the unions only do one thing .. raise money for the DEMOCRATS.
Beginning to think? Beginning? You are a very optimistic person to have taken this long.
Hopefully, in your wife’s case, she and her friends will actually pay for their merchandise. :>}
When they start protesting black on black killings and naming their babies names like Adam or Lisa, then I will care what these protesters say.
I'm thinking of seeing if they will change plans and go to Ferguson for some "roulette" shopping...
White officials and police should just resign and leave the city to the mob.
Businesses destroyed by the looting are already leaving the city and the unrest will probably drive more from the city.

This organization, MORE, is providing the bond money for anyone who gets locked up. I heard them giving the phone number our on a lives stream 314-862-2249, a simple google lookup attached it to MORE.
Anyone that says these protesters are not being compensated in some way is fooling themselves.
The weekend protest is being primarily hosted by the Commmunist Party of the USA.
Probably a lot of protesters wearing the comically overlarge clown pants that they have to keep pulling up.
People would take them more seriously if they didn’t dress like clowns and listen to “music” that sounds like live crows being steamed to death in a pressure cooker.
