When was that footage taken? The other cop could've been trying to shut him up just tout of general apprehension, may not have been because it's true, or from tonight. I remember hearing someone was shot in a drive-by yesterday.

That was from the shooting last night, not tonight.

No gunshots fired as of tonight, at least from what we know thus far.

i know this is the most unpopular opinion, but when cops tell me to go inside because they are trying to clear up the streets. I go inside. Dont have to purposely make their job harder. I guess im just not one of those people who is like "NO MY RIGHTS!" I get they arent doing anything wrong by being peaceful but SOME people were not being peaceful and they are trying to seperate them

By separate them you mean ignoring the guy that threw the Molotov and the bottle and just shooting rubber bullets and tear gas into the middle of the peaceful crowd?

Right now we need the National Guard to protect the protesters from the criminal police.

(that said I'd doubt the loyalty of the National Guard- maybe that's what is giving Obama pause)
The Governor of Missouri commands the Missouri National Guard.

There was a guy on stream who couldn't get to their home to clear the streets because it would be walking back into the cops that are firing shit at him. lol @ don't have to make their jobs harder.

Sorry my opinion is different than yours. I'm not even arguing with anyone. I'm here for a civil discussion? The whole thing is messed up. Im not siding with the cops at all for the initial crime here. I just dont think protesting is the way to get anything solved *shrug*

I also wish people would not report they were "shot at" when it was rubber bullets. Those are 2 completely different things
