I'm all for protesting, properly. But when you enter a buffer zone, one that's set for both side's protection, you can expect to get a response. That's not how to protest. If you think that the police were aggressive with smoke, gas, and flash bangs, you're wrong. There was no call for gun fire, period. That's not how to protest and in the end it muck's up your voice.

Now, if it's some anarchist groups, then they need to get those scumbags snatched up fast, and it's in the best interest of both sides to stop them and fast.

Nobody was saying there was a call for gun fire. Those are obviously from opportunist anarchists looking for any excuse. It was the police who gave them that excuse setting up bullshit buffer zones just to have an excuse to fire tear gas on people.
 
Fucking anarchist scum.



Can't believe I'm reading this. Lol. Situation is so fucked even Fox sent someone with sense.
Greta van Susterens twitter has been shockingly lucid re: ferguson during this whole event as well. (Have kept tabs since a liberal bud RTed her concern about the cops releasing the store tape.)
 
How did the cops let anarchists with weapons get into the protest area so easily? Where is the security? What is the point of having all that anti-terrorist weaponry if they can't even prevent people smuggle in weapons?
 
Tim said it's getting worse, it's obviously because people with other motivations can easily come in and start shit, especially with the police treating them all as one solid group.

It's really just Shep and his crew. If it was any other Fox talking head it would be a completely different story. Why do you think Shep got that fancy new set, and that huge paycheck? Because Fox didn't want to lose him to any other network. It simply because he's the best anchorman in the biz right now.

Double edged sword. If they clamped down even more, this would have escalated even sooner
 
Has it been confirmed anarchist groups are on the ground doing these things? I know they like to fuck stuff like this up, but are we jumping to conclusions here?
 
Guy who assisted in the autopsy thinks Brown was falling forward when he got hit with the kill shot on the top of his head.

Edit: still wants to review original autopsy, clothes, and toxicology report.

More like if they lost him they'd lose the ability to call themselves a news organization, he's like the last legitimate journalist on that channel. Not that he isn't good.

Maybe i'm not viewing the same streams, but from what I've seen thus far those buffers are very-very generous given the circumstances. Once again though, training varies between local/state organizations state by state. Military will have universal procedures.
 
Are there seriously anarchists on the scene? That sounds too scripted to be real. Like what the fuck.

Yeah, they have been hitting all the major protests for a while now. They were at Occupy too. There have been many debates between far left peaceful protesters and black bloc anarchists. There were a few of them that came from where I live, so I heard about it in the paper.

I haven't seen any evidence that it's the anarchist or communist groups doing all of these things, no.

yea, they've been around. MSNBC reported last night that the protesters have been complaining about them to local radio for a few days now. Sickening.
