MO - Grief & protests follow shooting of teen Michael Brown #24

[chefmom]

I'm sitting here watching channel 11 news and I hear, "DOJ has told Ferguson PD that they are not
to wear 'I am Darren Wilson' wristbands. They will wear name tags or be reprimanded."

The only way it can possibly be ok to force these men & women to wear a name tag is if it is a fake name that is registered to a real one. If not, then these LE should refuse & find another job. JMO.

Why is the chief on an apology tour?

Aargh, that guy is like nails on my chalkboard but I just recently read he is a cat lover so now I am conflicted.

:laughing:

Loss of the #Ferguson PD protest site has affected the crowd tonight...

That was a brilliant move on LE part by cleaning up all those protester camp sites.

Due to protests, Ferguson carjacking goes uninvestigated for several hours

Witnesses say the suspects approached a 62-year-old woman and her 34-year-old son at the Walgreens on North Florissant around 9:00 p.m. Thursday night. They forced the victims to drive around for 30 minutes and, at one point, put a gun to the man’s head and threatened to kill him. The suspects then dropped the victims off in Spanish Lake, where a relative picked them up and took them home.

Read at link! And video has better view of protesters getting physical with police last night.

I'm thinking this tidbit fits w above. DOJ initiated apology tour?


Chief Jackson had planned to visit various sites in Ferguson today, including the Canfield Apartments where Michael Brown was shot and killed on August 9, to personally extend his apologies for the incident.

However, those visits have been cancelled following Thursday night's unrest in Ferguson.

I noticed the PR name was in the top right hand corner of Chief Jackson's apology video. Maybe the apology tour was recommended by them as well.

At some point last night, after the hubbub with pizza guy iirc, someone said, "Okay, on to Walgreens."

Oh, how cute. He had himself a little press conference. Bless his heart.

They were released alright, but only after they paid their bond.

Run along home now, Tef Poe, your supper is probably getting cold.

Do Tef Poe and his cohorts have day jobs? Just curious.

The camp at Andy Wurm Tire parking lot was taken down today, and also the protest "supplies" area at Subway sandwich shop. Only a very narrow treed lot with a big "For Lease" sign out front separates the two newly emptied areas. The treed lot was right across from FPD, but it didn't look wide enough for more than 15 protesters to stand side by side to me.

Hahaha. Laughed out loud at this. My sisters used to ask me at the dinner table if I combed my hair yet for the day. And just two days ago my husband asked me if I was going to comb my hair as we headed out the door. When your hair has a mind of its own, no combs will help.

He's filming himself eating in Subway? Really? That's what it's come down to?

ETA: it's over. I'm not sure it was live at all

Montague Simmons, leader of the Organization for Black Struggle, accused the chief of pandering to cameras and "throwing out empty promises of accountability" as "a charlatan in uniform.
