So wasn't there some kind of special secret meeting about some special secret thing that the protestors were going to do today?

Maybe waiting for the cover of darkness?
 
Snipped: So now if you're carrying a firearm you have special rights in Missouri that Unarmed people don't have.

So it discriminates against felons and they say that like it's a bad thing.

Wouldn't these requirements have a disparate and discriminatory effect on minorities, who are unable even to produce an ID for voting?

If they can not produce an ID for voting it likely means they can't vote for another reason. A convicted felon who is on probation or parole can't vote. A non-resident can't vote. All the dudes laying around those apartments that the neighbors complained about might fit all of the above.

Not sure if this has been posted. It is after the police have left. The screams are heartbreaking, but it shows them talking about calling in the JD etc...

Good find!

What I saw was Baruti of OBS already using the words "protest" and "demands", and Jamilah Nasheed. Michael wasn't "innocent" and he wasn't unarmed > "My hands my ammunition".

And acting like its conspiratorial that they washed the blood away before leaving the scene. Given the manufactured drama when the crowd stopped his body from being retrieved sooner, imagine the outrage if they'd left it there. It's interesting that Baruti's already hedging that they may not get the result the want from the DOJ.
 
Does anyone know where the article is that says that Officer Wilson knew about the robbery before the shooting? I have to be passing it up in media b/c I know I have read it. Trying to find for a friend.

ETA found one through google. Argh this migraine does not help when having a debate and trying to back up your statements.
