She was not very good at her job, in my opinion.

Yup, that's a totally reasonable reason for not trying to talk down a bloodthirsty crowd that has no idea what it aims to do besides fuck up police.

For new page.

Anyone seen this recent account now thst supposedly mike tried to bum rush the officer and he didn't in fact turn around with his hands up? I figured it was bullshit, but this article comes with a video and an explanation. Again, not sure if it's been posted, I just got off work a little bit ago and saw it in my feed.

Yeah, you can hear the guy in the background describe how Mike Brown turned around and rushed the cop. He adds that it looked like the cop's shots were missing because Mike just kept rushing toward him

Just linked local news here in STL a few posts above.

Anyone care to give a brief summary on how the curfew's going? I imagine it's not going well.

 

[Devolution]

Megaphone guy "50 officers around the building."

Hearing more No Justice, No Curfew chanting.

Assholes that don't understand what is going on even as they watch it happen.

 

[Indicate]

K. It's live on CNN now

 

[CrankyJay]

This is all amazing and scary at the same time. Just keep pointing the cameras at the police. The world needs to witness this.

 

[Effect]

I wish the rest of the protesters would leave and go home and leave these idiots out there alone.

 

[Devolution]

Just heard "we aint leaving till they charging" from someone in the crowd.

 

[jamesinclair]

I have Fox News on the left, with the cops.

Vice news on the right with the protestors.

Very interesting juxtaposition.

Of course Fox is with the police....

But yeah, it gives a good view

 

[kendrid]

"police are grouping up in a formation"

 

[UrokeJoe]

This is all amazing and scary at the same time. Just keep pointing the cameras at the police. The world needs to witness this.

Agree.

 

[CrankyJay]

They're the only people who can talk any sense into them. Possibly the only people who can keep them alive.

 

[Camp Lo]

This guy on Livestream is cutting a promo, hyping this up like a huge battle is about to pop off.

 

[BFIB]

It's a standoff.

 

[El Odio]

The police are gearing up and forming up according to vice.

 

[mre]

Yup, that's a totally reasonable reason for not trying to talk down a bloodthirsty crowd that has no idea what it aims to do besides fuck up police.

If the comments you make are not helping, and are, in fact, provoking angry responses, then it's the perfect reason to not try and talk to a "bloodthirsty crowd." Again, what sort of confidence would this crowd have in a speaker who tells them that she"can guarantee you you will not be the next Michael Brown." That's not going to get their trust and get them to calm down.

 

[mhs004]

Vice dude is doing a pretty good job.

 

[kendrid]

This is all amazing and scary at the same time. Just keep pointing the cameras at the police. The world needs to witness this.

Based on some of the crowd tonight, be sure the cameras are on them also. There are 'thugs' on both sides.

 

[Effect]

They're the only people who can talk any sense into them. Possibly the only people who can keep them alive.

I would hope these fools would leave as well once they realized there is no one behind them. Though then again since they're acting like this I doubt that would happen.

 

[Jakeh111]

NOCO keeps it really real

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Yeah, it's annoying.

 

[Evil_Silver]

I can feel the tension from from my computer screen. I really hope nothing bad happens.

Some brothers are harder to convince. #ferguson

[user8503492]

That doesnt seem like a very big group to rush some cops...
Under 100?

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Police moving in.

No doubt, but false promises do way more harm than good. Inflame more than calm.

 

[Nanashrew]

Cops moving in D:

 

[Air Zombie Meat]

Police moving in now. Vehicles pulling up.

 

[jamesinclair]

So it just so happens that CNN and Fox go live at 12:35pm, right in time for "the show"?

 

[Chums Knifeblade]

Oh fuck, they're coming

 

[ishibear]

Omg...

 

[Joeku]

Jesus Christ, this is grim.
