MO - Grief & protests follow shooting of teen Michael Brown #21

[JLSChook]

I wonder if the St. Louis Blues are getting nervous yet? :angel:

Just feet. Those are some bright Nikes

Huh, I thought it was a weird shoe commercial

 

[TheDuchess]

are those the feet of some of the protesters I wonder? I did notice a lady wearing a brown pair of boots earlier.

Feed is acting wonky again.

Kind of like this whole big protest thing

I don't think so...I would have noticed those bright things before...and I actually love the purple ones....

Shoes...I have watching and discussing some random people's shoes for 9 minutes and 1 second. :shame:

 

[popsicle]

did I hear boos? took that down fast!

 

[TheDuchess]

Oh! A banner! YAY!!! "Justice for Mike Brown" and pulled it down right away. Woo Hoo! Wonder if that was the BIG SURPRISE!!!

 

[DebinGA]

I hope there are plain clothes police surrepticiously recording Mustafa et al. He seems to put his finger over the lens t certain points to hide who instigated the criminal encounters.

It's better than when Fox was showing us that beautiful blade of grass on one of the last protests. The grass was pretty, though.

Gunmen mentions Michael Brown as he robs three couples leaving a restaurant

Also

Now the camera is pointed up towards a balcony

I'm sorry but I grew up where things relating to primates were tossed around on the regular by racists in reference to black people so I find that whole Gorrilla thing a bit inflammatory. I don't live in MO but I live next door. If it was the sort of reference there that it was here (and still is by some) in the 70s and 80s it is indeed really hurtful and inflammatory. JMO.

Yep, and I am sad to say the instructor is a real person (Rick Rosenthal, President of RAR Communications- ex TV anchor).
Anyone who deals in PR and communications is well aware of the racist connotations and would not coyly refer to any primate in regards to case that is already racially charged. Ignorant, inflammatory flyer. An embarrassment at best.

Robert Patrick ‏@rxpatrick 6m
Main part of #MichaelBrown #Ferguson protest at Busch petered out @ 7:20. 7 protesters came in, brief protest, then left.

 

[Lovejac]

So they just showed 2 black cops and he said they are looking for the people that hung that banner

Was that seriously their big surprise? :facepalm:

 

[TheDuchess]

Apparently the "St. Louis Metro Police" are now looking for the hangers of the sign. This is more of a prank than anything else.

Oh, thanks for reposting and thanks to original poster. I went back to thank that one & couldn't find it. This looks to be what this "movement" inspires, criminal acts.

He just gave us an explanation for why his live feed has been messing up. I have no idea what it meant. Something about pegs?

 

[Muffet]

Sorry, OT -

MUFFET! Under your name: Autocorrect is my worst enema

I just noticed it and tea came out my nose! :hilarious:

:giggle: A little crude, but I figured we could use a chuckle for a few days.
(Plus, it's so dang relate-able! :crazy: )

 

[Lovejac]

He said another banner has been torn down. Good!

I wonder how many they had. Also, I didn;t know it was against the rules to hang banners

 

[Klood-N]

Pix of protestors at https://mobile.twitter.com/Jdstl314 just posted. It looks dark. Maybe current pix?

I was just thinking that. I got called into the office with a bunch of friends for doing a senior prank. We hung a banner just like that, from a big bed sheet, saying CLASS OF 70 RULEZ!

Banners/Signs

Banners may be displayed as long as they do not hinder or interfere with a ball in play or distract or interfere with the view of another guest. Banners may not be displayed in fair territory, be obscene or in poor taste, attract abuse or cause a disturbance among other guests. They should be baseball-oriented and not commercial in nature, unless the Cardinals and Stadium management have granted permission. Also, banners may not be paraded around the Stadium or hung over the field boxes on the field level.
