LIVE NOW: protesters forced police back, take more of police lot.

That is exactly what they want. They want to lifestream pix of the cops manhandling innocent protestors. They want pictures of pastors being carried away by cops in riot gear.

A minister that participates in the protests does so as a "civilian," IMO, and is therefore subject to the same sanctions as any other protester.

I see the arms are out like the bullet wounds and him rushing.... instead of up and surrendering.

eh, IMHO MB rushed at ODW -- used his "football training" don't ya know; but IMHO we'll know very soon what GJ decided about indicting ODW on murder charges & the evidence will be shown

I feel for LE standing out in the cold, soaking rain.

Channel 2 news here in St Louis is reporting that arrests are being made on S Florrissant

What exactly is being accomplished here?

That the protester's can bully people? imo

I sure wish these protesters would protest ALL shootings in St Louis and stop being so biased and picky over who shot who.

exactly, but the other 50+ shootings during the past 2 months in the metro area don't fit within their agenda IMHO

I am going to continue to question if "black lives matter", why not protest against that violence, too!? I just don't get it! Stay in school, get an education & don't do drugs (or sell them) Break free of the perpetual downward cycle (I did)

Rain did not appear to have reduced the crowd at #ferguson police station. It was a colorful sea of umbrellas.

I guess it's just cold here lol

 

[Dana]

It doesn't bother me, I love the childish remarks every bit as much as the condescending remarks

I thought Bully was a bad word/thing :laugh: these protests to me are like a walking oxymoron; 2 sets of standards = segregation to me -- "People, I just want to say, can we all get along? Can we get along?" - Rodney King

Why did Cornell West want to know if he was going to be taken into the bldg? He asked that question before being arrested... :thinking:
