Yep! And business owners as well should also make it very clear that they will deal harshly with anyone who tries to trash their property or harm them!

these arnt the local protestors. these are action groups with strategy plans that are going to be organizing all of the rioting. i wouldnt be surprised if the majority of these groups coming in are comprised of mainly whites.

they know what they are doing and most importantly know how to win the public. the local leo's arn't going to have a clue how to handle these outside orgs, which is why there is a garage full of fed vehicles outside of ferguson right now.

MLK won the public by showing the brutal nature of the white male and changed this country forever. the key will be if they can win the public. win the public, and the possibilities are endless.

And rioting is NOT the way to win the public! White, black, purple, yellow... I don't give a s*** what color you are! Destroying private property of innocent people who had nothing to do with the situation is unacceptable, and should be dealt with harshly! I'm leary about cops too, and the growing police state, but I absolutely do NOT advocate violence against innocent people either!

Let's look at the other side of this. Did Michael Brown deserve to be shot? No. The people in the community live in fear: the fear of being shot. The fear of the police. The police go into the community like they are going into Afghanistan, like they are on a military mission. How about disarming the police. Just a thought. Remember Andy didn't carry a gun.

Training will tell you that in close quarters struggles a gun is almost a hindrance. I still recall a local Hialeah cop was shot by a teen with his own handgun within a mall. They were grappling and the kid took his firearm and killed him. It was over a shoplifting stop and arrest. Sounds familiar?

Police officers have been killed because they hesitated in close distance situations to use deadly force.

IMO.....when you grab a cop's gun you are asking to be shot.
