If I was a resident there, I'd have a sign on my property clearly stating "looters will be shot!"

How about if one of the dozen was a relative?

Even if the bounty was $20K?

Relax...the answer is a resounding NO!
Yeah, what happened to "snitches get stiches" ?! Typical thug mentality. Instead of standing up and realizing that another one of their hood rat friends is dead due to his own stupidity they have to again blame the "law"...

agreed, that is the travesty that people are coming from outside Ferguson with the only intent to loot and get new electronics and shoes. Think they care that MB was shot? not an inkling of an iota. I would be PO'd too if I was a business owner there, but wouldn't go peacefully....in general the hood rats, they are weak unless in groups greater than 5 and I doubt would be quick to loot if the store owners were armed and ready. I would not go quietly in that circumstance.

The media does portray this in a light that is not reality, they make it sound like Ferguson is a war zone, I bet it is a very tiny section that is under seige so to speak, I do feel very badly for the merchants that have to deal with the hood rats who feel it is their entitlement to steal from innocents. However this does have potential to spread to other neighborhoods and cities when the decision is made to not move forward with a trial. His parents going to the UN is a mockery, guess they wanted to see what Europe looked like, definitely on someone else's dime.

Will be interesting to see how this plays out, but doesn't everyone think that since the police, National Guard, etc are "beefing up" we all know what the decision will be. I hope it doesn't spiral out of control, but my gut tells me that the media, race baiters, etc want it to. No good will come out of this if it does, and lives will be lost.

I see that the person who started this on his twitter feed is teaching people how to make bombs now. Yeah, that's not "protesting". That's terrorism.

I think the area is about as prepared as it can be for civil unrest.

I don't think the rioting is going to happen. I wish that it didn't happen to begin with so there would be more engagement with the trial instead of the violence.

We don't know what the decision will be. We are being prepared for the worst. The witnesses have not finished testifying so how could we know.

Very funny. This twitter feed is the one that offered the 'reward' for the whereabouts of Officer Wilson or his family. Seems they are continuing their theme. Now, for those who thought they were genuinely looking for an interview with Officer Wilson, looking at that twitter feed, is there any doubt whatsoever what their intentions are?? They're terrorists and I think their feed makes that obvious.

I agree.

All I can say is they better hope nothing happens to Wilson or, his family.
