So basically, some of you actually believe that looting is justified because of how "bad you got it". Go grow the hell up and take some responsibility for your own life and quit blaming others. Losers.

I'm wondering what good it would do to release the Cops name. It puts him in danger by a lynch mob.

What I don't understand is why don't they just have the protests during the day only and not at night? If protestors want to be seen as peaceful, then what's the point of protesting at night unless you want to use the darkness to cause trouble? Just protest in the morning and throughout the day and then pack it up for the night and come back the next day. So simple.

Its funny how blacks want the name of the cop, yet when THEY are the suspects in a crime, they DON'T want the media to broadcast the race or the name of the suspects and want them to hide it as much as possible.

Because they have day jobs.

So go after work or unless you mean to tell me everyone gets off work in the middle of the night and that's why they go and protest then?

Middle of the night? Most of the tear gas photos are time stamped 8:30-9:30 pm - and they are also protests through the day. You are grasping at straws.

Don't know if this was posted already. It's tweets from veterans on the police response. Even they are shocked at how overboard they've gone.

The Ferguson SWAT storm troopers have been sent home and the State Police have taken over. The State Police Captain is talking with and walking with the protesters.

I thought about his also until someone ask me the question would the police withhold your name if you were suspected in shooting a cop. Would you be extended the same protections.

Not if he was sitting in a jail cell like any other murder suspect... The protesters wouldn't drag him from the police department...
