Still a few pages behind, but wanted to address this even though he's banned.

Edit: Mammoth Jones knows what's up.

Are these from the same reporting organization or two different ones?

 

[hokahey]

Oh, has it now? Like before they were all gung ho but now thanks to this "game changer", they've put the hand crafted signs down?

The logical gymnastics that occurs every time I post in here is a little crazy to me.

I said it's given them pause. If it had done what you described I'd have said that. Yeah?

But obviously your implication is that I'm being dishonest, probably because you don't like what I stated.

There are a lot of really, really good people out there protesting that just want to know the truth. They aren't so blinded by rage that they're not willing to consider other narratives, even from a bad source. They understand the fallacy of attacking the source and not the information.

All of that said, I still believe the cop was in the wrong to kill him.

But the smart thing to do is carefully consider any and all information presented that may be relevant.

One's from the Associated Press, the other from Agence France-Presse.

Different ones.

First one is Associated Press, second is Agence France-Presse

Police firing smoke already. Ordering crowd to disperse.

I guess shots have been fired. Please using tear gas. Also seeing reports of gang fighting.

St. Louis County PD has tweeted about the shooting and apparently Molotovs being thrown at police.

@jonswaine: Something big landed next to McDonalds. Man picked it up and hurled through window, smashing it. Another guy smashed another window

McDonald's can't catch a break.

Live stream of the STL County police scanner:

note: this is across the county so everything isn't related to Ferguson.

 

[Boke1879]

a lot of people sayin they didn't see or hear any molotovs.

Something seriously needs be done. The Police chief needs to make an arrest on the officer. Or else this will continue.

Either way the teenager stood up to a bully. So sad that it had to end a young man's life.

If we were to believe the narrative where Brown charged him how in the hell is the cop a bully? For daring to ask somebody to get out of the middle of the street? The nerve!

Note the "if". If the cop shot him while he was running or had his hands up that is murder. But asking him out of the street is a far cry from being a bully.

 

[Trouble]

WTF not even curfew time and shit is poppin' off? (._. )

Tbh children should not be out there based on what's been going on. Not that they don't have the right to - just based on what's been going on every night.

 

[Vyroxis]

Can't arrest him till they know for sure what happened. If they rush it, they screw it up, his defense attorney rips shit up in court.

Unless you want another Trayvon case where the prosecutor gets pushed to far, and it's all downhill from there?

 

[Agnostic]

Shit is more ominous tonight from all of my news inputs since this started last week.

I got tear-gassed good. Cop grabs me, drags me to truck and hands me water. "You media??" "YES" "hahahahaha Welcome to Ferguson!"

 

[Nabs]

I can't believe the scene out there.

Shameless. This is nothing but instigation on behalf of the cops; and if people dare do anything it gets plastered on the news and we get more wastes of oxygen going "see look at how they act!"

 

[everyday math]

@AmyKNelson: "911 just hung up on me."

Whose controlling these police officers? I'm so confused.

 

[CrankyJay]

How the fuck is shit getting violent before curfew?

 

[FamousLastX]

What's their excuse for trying to get the crowd to disperse tonight? Still hours away from curfew.

 

[freddy]

Tear gas followed by cops moving up then more tear gas. Looks like they're trying to push them away from shops.

St. Louis County PD claimed molotovs were being thrown.

[CrimsonCommie]

What the fuck?

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Whose controlling these police officers? I'm so confused.

My best guess is they stopped taking calls because they figure the police are already there?

Yes, yes, I know, it's amazing and shitty.

 

[vas_a_morir]

I dunno, but 911 is not the police, but a separate dispatcher. (or whatever the word is)

 

[Htown]

Wasn't the curfew for midnight?

the fuck are they even doing?

 

[Big Baybee]

Why are they doing this? I'm guessing there is no evidence of molotovs at all

 

[Indicate]

babies in the crowd :/

 

[Angelus Errare]

Have you ever seen a crowd of black people? You gotta break that shit up preemptively!

 

[Nabs]

So many cops on the MSNBC stream.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Gas or smoke is going out.

 

[Flo_Evans]

A woman was shot earlier.

 

[BitStyle]

Dudes just trying to leave getting fired at on stream... what a mess.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

So apparently the cops are not allowing a guy to move forward to get home before curfew.

What.

 

[TheSeks]

I should put these in a note pad because I always forget some. Only one I can consistently remember is alt+0233 which is é for Pokémon.

Just google "alt codes," if you're that bothered. There is site(s) with the alt+XXXX numpad codes for what you want.

 

[everyday math]

I know.

@prisonculture: I would like to repeat that the police are deliberately attacking peaceful protesters. Have been doing this for days. With no repercussions.
