Alex Jones and Mike Brown streams are down for me. Any other ones?

The mike brown one, the guy was moving down the road a bit. But yeah it went down

Someone's shooting at you, are you really going to stop and check what kind of bullet was fired at you?

Might be old news, but

The Huffington Post's Ryan J. Reilly and the Washington Post's Wesley Lowery were arrested Wednesday evening while covering the protests in Ferguson, Missouri after the death of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown, who was shot by a police officer last week. The journalists were released unharmed, but their detentions highlighted the town's ramped up police presence, which has left numerous residents injured by rubber bullets, pepper spray and tear gas during protests held every night after Brown's death.

Well if they would just be peaceful, listen to the officers and leave instead of disturbing the peace with all their 'reporting' things like this wouldn't have to happen.

MSNBC is covering this. They're showing the livestream stuff.

Is this being covered by the press? CNN live feed or anything?

Amazing what happens when they jail reporters. The best part is going to be watching the media completely eviscerate the police over this. They just lost in the court of public opinion.

The guy with the nightvision stream is on MSNBC now

It sucks that this is what it takes, but now there will be coverage.

Unless someone higher up tries to protect the police or something.

@acarvin: Protester after getting shot at and tear gassed: “Take your bitch-ass home!” Police respond with more flash bangs, tear gas. #Ferguson

I'm so angry. So furious. Maybe I need to get off for a little bit.

@mollycrabapple: Turkish friends who fought the cops during Gezi tweeting tear gas advice to #Ferguson

This is depressing.

Police are refusing to identify themselves when journalists ask for names and badge numbers.

Holy shit guys it's the video of Lowery's arrest in McDonalds!!!

Guardian are there too. Haven't seen any tv coverage in the UK though.

Looks like Al Jazeera is there, and has been attacked by the militants

 

[Camp Lo]

At this point, with this coverage, God would have to descend down on this shit to protect them

 

[Malyse]

Nah, he should keep posting until he says what he really means. Then we won't have to see his trash anymore.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Now you're sounding like these corrupted police trying to take away someone's rights.

Ignore him if you have to. There's more suppressing issues at hand

Dude's cruising for the hammer. I mean, he must of pissed someone off already to have 8k+ posts and be a junior but hey...

You know the people that think Obama is a lizard person and that he's going to send people to die in FEMA death camps? Alex Jones is their messiah.

What is going on in StL? I thought it was just about a kid getting shot, but from the last few pages it seems like its become more than that. I need a Lionel Mandrake on this one.

So you and your children go home to avoid the tear gas and they throw it in your front yard.

 

[Trouble]

Who's in charge of these cops? They seem to be completely out of control by the videos coming out right now.

Fucking hell.

 

[Messofanego]

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

I know you've been banned, but you should know and others that rubber bullets aren't actually made of rubber. They're regular bullets with a little rubber around it so it doesn't actually penetrate you, but you can get serious injuries and even die from them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_bullet

 

[Gorillaz]

I'm really interested in why the National Guard hasn't been allowed to step in yet. It might be something else likejust delayed reaction because It almost seems like they told the police that this was their shit they created and they were on there own.


I can't believe Gov't is letting this go on like this without any big brother intervention

Everything from the moment the first bottle was thrown has just been unreal

How the fuck do you justify firing tear gas and rubber bullets into a crowd of people peacefully holding up their hands in protest?
