MO - Grief & protests follow shooting of teen Michael Brown #25

[Dana]

I am OW protestor was walking on the sidewalk, the PD pulled him back.

 

[Lovejac]

Okay, so that dude showed up with a Darrin Wilson support sign and the folks went crazy :scared:

They were demanding he be arrested. So they did, as far as they are concern he got arrested.

But he will be taken back to the PD and released, just like the other guy that "ran over" Nadal's intern. And in a few days, they will find out that he wasn't charged and they'll be all mad again.

 

[Dana]

So if you have a different POV, you're inciting a riot?? Somehow that doesn't seem fair to me but OK.

exactly, with a 2 yr contract, of payment every month. yet they have time to protest day and night, sleeping in tents...

smart phones moved from being a luxury to an essential years ago. with family and group plans, they are not expensive at all. and everyone expects to be able to reach you immediately. life is very different than it was 15-20 years ago, in that respect.

Huh, they made that I am Darren Wilson protestor leave.....I say if he goes, they all do!

I believe I would be on the phone with an attorney if I were him. These LE are seriously misguided if that one man is arrested but the crowd chanting death threats is within their rights!

 

[LambChop]

I do not think they arrested him. It look a if it is his car he is sitting in. I did not see him doing anything wrong. It's not their sidewalk and they have no permit.

 

[Truthy]

If the guy wants to protest for OW, okay. But he can't incite the crowd and then hide behind the officers and stand there smiling while they deal with the havoc he caused imo. Their job is hard enough without adding protecting some grandstander to the mix.

Ain't that he truth!

I heard someone who was talking to an officer say that the man "ran over them with his walker".

Seriously????

From the pov of the officers there, I'd say the counter-protester was definitely making their job much harder.

Did the Officer just ask for their lic giving them auth to protest? He said, I have repeatedly said to keep moving.

“For me, I’ve seen … another interview that he’s done,” said Lesley McSpadden, Brown’s mother, when asked about Jackson’s apology. “And it just comes off very incompetent.”

Lordy...lots of cars from every nearby PD.

I think they are sending a message. The <modsnip> and the pizza guy.

It's coming in loud and clear.

I especially love all of the customers of the pizza place walking in with their open carry.

Soooo, why are they still standing around?

 

[katydid23]

So where is this other demonstration going on? The Police station again?

Gotnews has three stories up about Ferguson right now, newest one with photos I hadn't seen. Info about protestors, Dorian, and the assault on Officer Wilson for those who haven't seen them.
