Cops just took someone.

 

[CorvoSol]

They're telling people to get on the ground?

 

[Puppet Shadow]

CNN found a new reporter! This one is actually pointing out how ridiculous it is having the huge military presence at the end of the street. The next guest agreed and said this was all overkill!

Hopefully these two don't blow their chances of moving up to the prime time slot.

 

[libregkd]

They just took someone for no reason?

yeah what the fuck just happened?

 

[El Odio]

Looks like someone on the brown stream got arrested?

 

[GulAtiCa]

Why did that guy get arrested and what was that pink bag thingy?

I think that's Jake Tapper (formerly of ABC News). He's already got a show on CNN, if I recall.

Probably threw something and was that's why the SWAT vehicle was looking for him. I wouldn't be surprised if Police is recording protestors from their end and arresting those that do throw stuff. Happened here during NATO.

I'm sure they'll have someone on later to mention that no one knows the whole story, and that dozens of documented videos showing escalation by police here are biased.

 

[CrimsonCommie]

The police are trying their best to start another riot

 

[Effect]

Why the hell do the cops keep aiming their damn weapons at people!? That action alone is escalating things.

 

[BokehKing]

The police are trying to force a violent reaction from protesters. That should be very clear by now.

They just rolled up 40 deep + a van just to take one guy away

 

[ErasureAcer]

This crowd needs to get some chants going. Arrest Darren Wilson. Arrest Darren Wilson. Arrest Darren Wilson. Something.

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

The police are acting like thugs here, and clearly the aggressors. This whole department needs to get shitcanned.

 

[Sushi Nao]

It's how they get more funding

 

[PS3GamerKyle]

fuck these pigs

 

[antonz]

Im actually kind of shocked. Fox now that it has Shep on t e air and not the mouthbreathing editorial is actually somewhat balanced. Talking about the community cleaning up every morning how its outsiders stirring up trouble etc

 

[CrimsonCommie]

Oh my fucking god

 

[Big Baybee]

So they are just grabbing at people on the sidewalk now.

 

[Dali]

The police are trying their best to start another riot

They really are. What's their obsession with the sidewalk? It's like they are drawing arbitrary lines that they pray the protesters cross.

 

[Jakten]

This reminds me of the G20 protests in Toronto. The police would run out in the crowd and randomly arrest people who look vulnerable. Only difference is they were surrounded in a circle in Toronto.

Yeah seems like that's what they are doing.

 

[El Odio]

Press ordered to return to their designated area.

 

[ErasureAcer]

Crowd needs to chant: Arrest Darren Wilson. Arrest Darren Wilson.

This would be a good time to bring the fact that standing on a sidewalk or road is not the problem but the cop killing Mike Brown is.

"“@ryan612ne: @marclamonthill were they white?” Yes. The two that were grabbed and given to police were white."
"I have to underscore that this is literally a handful of people causing this."

Is amnesty international at Ferguson yet?

Also what are other countries major new sources saying about these protest?

 

[Puppet Shadow]

I mean... you roll up in armored trucks, bring out fully armored military style gear, turn on that siren, then yell to the crowd, "DE-ESCALATE THE SITUATION."

Well put.

Yes. Amnsety has observers on site. They are wearing yellow tshirts

"For the third night in a row I've seen, the New Black Panther Party is calming the crowd and encouraging people to back away from police."

Yup, good decision by Fox to get Shep on this story tonight.

Every anarchist I have ever seen or met have nearly always been white with anger management issues.

He may be referring to a different situation that what occurred on stream.

 

[Dahellisdat]

Looks like its calmed down a bit and police have backed off

 

[LiK]

Hope the protestors get rid of those anarchists trying to start shit.

 

[CorvoSol]

is the sound out on the Mike Brown live for anyone else?

 

[Sophia]

Working perfectly fine here.

 

[CrimsonCommie]

Don't clap too loud they might take it as an aggressive clap and start shooting

 

[dreams]

I swear the people with cameras outnumber the actual protesters.

Edit; SHIT. Replied to the wrong person.

 

[Enzom21]

The cops?

Jokes aside, yeah I agree with you. I'm happy the protesters are throwing them to the police.

Got it now. One of my headphones was just piping the low noise.

 

[FiggyCal]

Chris Hayes is a trooper.

 

[Dark Stalkers]

[LiK]

The cops?

Both the cops and those other guys

Police sources tell me more than a dozen witnesses have corroborated cop's version of events in shooting #Ferguson

The cop is not going to face anything, won't even be arrested to stand trial.
