Pull the police out.......let them burn the city.......then do not help them rebuild.
I agree. Many people who live in and around Fergerson are hopeless and are hypocrites.
- from day one they constantly yelled at police for lack of communication and when police actually do show up to try and talk to these people, they do nothing but yell, insult, call them every name in the book and pretty much see how far they can push things until the cops snap or are forced to leave
- they continually point out that there are so few black police officers on the force, yet when a few black officers do show up, the protestors call them uncle Toms and a traitor to their own race and insult them worse than their white counterparts
- they constantly demand 'justice' for Michael Brown's death, yet the only justice they will ever accept is a conviction and a long jail term for Darren Wilson. Anything less and there will be blood and violence
- they don't care about the facts of the case, only that Michael Brown is dead and revenge must be had.....unless those facts support their narrative and then of course those facts matter. Any facts that support the other side however are immediately deemed false or are attacked vigorously and quickly discredited
- any protest that was originally in support of Brown and actually questioned police conduct in a valid manner is now almost completely lost and has been polluted by violent trouble makers who seem to want nothing more than to cause another incident with police and fan the flames of distrust and hate even more
I think its most definitely time to grant the people of Ferguson their wish and just pack up and go and never look back. If they hate and fear the police so damn much and aren't willing to respect their authority and their effort in trying to keep the peace, then let them leave and let Ferguson decide on its own whether they want to sink or swim. And if they choose the former over the latter, then let them live in the ruined hellhole that they created for themselves.

I wonder if any of these people would call the police if they were the victims of crime????
License suspended for 15 years and he keeps driving because he "has to". At 19 he caused an accident driving without insurance and was ordered to pay $50,000 in damages which he never paid but this fine upstanding citizen has money for ipads, iphones and expensive cameras? Why aren't they garnishing his wages? Sucks for the person he hit 8 years ago.
No responsibility, the uncle with deep pockets will take care of him.
As for the restraint of the officers, it's really amazing. These people yell the most filthy, foul & violent things (about them AND their families) at them - sometimes from mere feet away. And the cops stand there blank faced.
I've watched the live streams many MANY times. And the bulk of these protestors are morons. Last night there was a handful of them who marched around 12a-1a to St. Louis University with the intent to block off intersections. The cops actually herded them like sheep ... it was amazing to watch. They'd drive their squads up to the protestors, get their attention, the protestors would start yelling ("hey hey, ho ho, these racists cops have got to go" is in major rotation) at the cop in the car - and then the squad would literally start backing up.
And the moron protestors would follow.
They were corralled in a parkway, and out of the intersection, within a half an hour - without the cops saying anything or using any weapons - and the protestors had no idea what happened.
They're idiots.
Acting like animals, they should be treated like animals, get out the fire hoses!
Grieving grandmamma and cousin were trying to find solace by selling Michael Brown t-shirts. Mom pulls up, yelling "you can't sell this s%$&!" to which one of the relatives selling merchandise demanded to see a patent. An unidentified person with Mom assaults cousin Petty in the face, stealing the merchandise and a box allegedly containing $1,400 cash. The police were then called.
