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

[reedus23]

Ummm....many of them sound drunk! Chief just calming drinking his water bottle.

I'd say nervously drinking it. I'd love to be able to hear him. Maybe the real journalists/cameras are picking it up.

This mob doesn't care to hear what Chief Jackson has to say. They don't want information. They just want to scream obscenities, threaten to kill police officers and their families, and make unreasonable demands.

They want Jackson to resign. They want Officer Wilson dead.

They want free rein to intimidate & threaten whomever disagrees with them.

At least he showed up to take some share of the abuse from this crowd.

Wow...you guys are all so fast! Thanks for the link! Are you sure this is the right one? The title says "Candlelight vigil!" LOL!

Well, now, there was one candle...and a lighted hula hoop!

 

[chefmom]

Wonder how many calls they would log from angry citizens if they did stay away? Might serve as a reminder that they are indeed protecting, but it would be a horrible price for innocent citizens to pay in terms of property loss, etc.

Yes. This is definitely a time when LE are darned if they do and darned if they don't.

It makes me laugh that not 1 of the can stop talking for 30 seconds for someone else to talk.
All they know is SCREAM and chant.

 

[reedus23]

They won't shut their mouths long enough for him to answer any question.

I'm guessing some don't want him to give the answers, and some just have no sense or discipline.

It's hopeless.

He's answering but the livestreams are just on iphones ore whatever and not picking it up. He's obviously talking.

 

[TorisMom003]

Trying to talk the Chief into marching with them. He better freaking not!

 

[Muffet]

He's proving to them and his detractors who is willing to have a dialogue and who isn't.


This is also going to be harder for the media to ignore.

 

[K_Z]

I'm just worried one of them is going to take a poke, shove, or swing at the Chief. And then people will most surely die. The crowd is far too close to the chief.

 

[TheDuchess]

Is he really going to march with them???

 

[chefmom]

Too bad it wasn't super glue.

Seriously, I'm really going to bed now :wink:

Night, Lovejac! Sweet dreams!

 

[TorisMom003]

OMFG!!!! Chief is out there with them.

 

[reedus23]

He is walking with them now? What the hell? What am I missing here?

 

[TheDuchess]

here we go!

 

[Solitaryone]

Night of the Living Dead!

 

[K_Z]

Ok. I expected this to deteriorate. Here we go.

 

[TorisMom003]

It's on now. Fighting LE.

 

[SnoopyDawgDawg]

Too bad it wasn't super glue.

Seriously, I'm really going to bed now :wink:

lol. I was just about to say, "Weren't you going to bed awhile back?!"

 

[Opie]

Against exactly whom or what is HE protesting?
