I'm still trying to figure out the "hands up" thing. How can so many people claim the he had his hands up? It looks like he may have raised his hands briefly as he turned around, but lowered them when he began charging towards Wilson. If that is the case, all bets are off regarding surrender.

They are fighting racism and injustice and something like that. What a bunch of children. Let's destroy our town when we don't get what we want. How about they riot for all the blacks killing blacks!? **** pathetic
I know we won't get the numbers but I would actually like to know how much of the violence, looting, burning, etc. was led by locals and how much by the people who decided they were going to go to Ferguson to make a statement. I have no doubt that Fergusonites were involved at least to an extent in some of it but I would be more hard pressed to trust those who drove or flew to Ferguson recently to make a point.

Not that either way would be good but that makes me sad that someone would do that to their own community. Really feel bad for the business owners of the places that were burned down, looted or whatever. It's easy to say that they should collect their insurance proceeds and go away but that is easier said than done for those small owners who have lived in Ferguson for years.
Michael Brown's stepfather consoled the dead teen's distraught mother after Monday's controversial grand jury announcement, and then turned to the crowd of demonstrators, saying, "Burn this mother f---er down" and "Burn this bitch down," according to a New York Times video.

And they wonder why people look down on them and treat them as animals...

Same thing happened in LA with the King riots. If you're pissed off at someone, don't tear up your own stuff.

So why bring in the National Guard and not use them to protect property
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair or fucking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Yeah, I'm not sure. Some legal "analyst" on one of the stations discussed this. They were wondering why it was taking so long to release the info. As I stated earlier, they wanted to ensure the businesses had a chance to close and get their employees home. But that they feared a leak of information if they waited any longer.
They've been leaking information since two days after the event. Wilson sent his girlfriend to the radio to leak his side of the story, the cops leaked the pics from the alleged robbery, they leaked the fractured eye socket story...... nobody within 100 miles of St. Louis, black or white, ever thought there would be an indictment. Cops ain't ham sandwiches ya know...
I just knew Densedawg would show up and make an ass of himself..
