Location: SE Louisiana | They are just about to announce the grand jury decision in Ferguson Mo. If the jury is not interfered with by the Feds, I'm expecting a No True Bill... and riots around the country.

Location: SE Louisiana | No... I expect if it is a NTB they want it to happen when most of the innocent people are safe at home.. Because there WILL be riots... Because of the time of the announcement and the pleas from Gov.Nixon for peace.. They know what is coming and want to isolate the rioters.

There can be another Grand Jury, or the feds can step in and file their own charges... but that will not stop what's going to happen tonight. |

All Obama wants to do is stir up more racist mess...I ageed with the first half of his speech but then he goes into race relations and the police....and how the police needs to work with the community! What about the black community working on the issues in the community what a young man thinks it's okay to still cigars and rough up the store owner. Why aren't those issues being addressd? Micheal Brown actions put him in a situation that led to his death. The white cop didn't go looking to just kill an innocent man that day. |

 Could not agree more. As I said to my husband "Does he not understand those who are going to riot are not sitting and watching TV. They are in the streets already rioting." To little, to late....

Location: Baden, PA | I'm headed off to bed here. But I bet things are going to get rather interesting over the next few days. We all know Jackson and Sharpton are going to be milking this for all it's worth. Anonymos(SP) is going to be all up in arms. The New Black Panthers are going to be raising the bounty on Wilson as well as leveling threats against anyone that disagrees with them and the KKK is going to make counter threats to them. Many of the businesses that are being looted are going to just up and leave since what they had there is going to be destroyed not only by the locals but by the "protestors" that were shipped in from other locals. This is just the start of it, I bet by the end of tomorrow, there will be Riots in many major American cities. |

It would be great if he would say, "don't break the law and your chances of being shot by police will drop dramatically". No one has mentioned since the initial incident that the kid was breaking the law and that's why police met up with him. From there the evidence has to speak for him amd the officer. |

Location: Online | This was going to happen whether he was indicted or not. They were primed and ready. They just needed any excuse to riot and do some "undocumented shopping". Nothing was going to stop them. They knew the police weren't going to try to stop them. They knew no one was going to shoot them with anything but tear gas. They had the numbers and the go ahead from the Narcissist in Chief and DOJ and the all mighty Sharpton. I hope those 3 morons are happy now. The most divisive administration ever just ruined the lives of thousands. All in the name of "racism" that they conjured up themselves with help from the media. This never had to happen to begin with. It is all on the shoulders of our race baiting leaders. Pure and simple.
What have we heard about the 12 year old black kid with a toy gun that got shot and killed by a black cop? Nothing. What have we heard about the white kid in Utah walking down the street with his ear buds and couldn't hear the cop yelling? Shot by a black cop? Nothing.
I just wonder how many of those people were actually citizens of Ferguson and how many were from out of town. Hell, Holder and Sharpton probably brought them in on buses. |

Back when Chicago had race riots..The then Democratic Mayor Daley said if anyone is caught looting or starting fires they would be shot. Guess what? They didn't loot or start fires.
The police were told to step back and treat this riot like it's a festival or after a sports game. Really? Are you serious? So once again the innocent people of Ferguson loses while the thugs loot and burn. They should have taken a stand and the Democratic Governor won't even talk to his Republican Lieutentant Governor. So what role did Obama and Holder have in this? |

 You just got to get mean and mean it.
Location: Arkansas | I watched all of that last night go down in Ferguson. Seems like they looted and torched every thing they could. Twice. Regardless of who owned the store. Hoodlums. I'll bet that town looks like a burned out shanty town this morning.
The lawless element were primed to do all the damage they could. Regardless of the out come from the grand jury.
Now, they've managed to burn and loot their own town. Kinda like an old military saying...they pooped in their mess gear. I don't feel sorry for them....they made this mess.
Marshel law should have been declared and shot all looter's. Asking them to play nice just isn't cutting it. And they squall about the police being heavy handed! Just look at Ferguson Missouri!!

Bingo! This is what I posted on my FB this am, and I normally don't have much to say on these subjects but come on...
I sat this am and listened and watched Ferguson reports... Impressive... just Impressive... I mean, what better justice for a punk that got what he got for not obeying the law, then to burn down 25 businesses, and not only take the lively hood of those 25 family business owners, but then all their employees, that had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with what happened?
It is really sad to me that statistics show proof of their studies and yet people don't want to be labeled those stats, but do NOTHING to change the stat, only prove it right.
IDC what color anyone is, the law is the law, break it and suffer the consequence of that action, just like when I broke my mom's rules, I got what I got...I deserved everything I got as a matter of fact. But last night, what a statement... way to go, you just added to your stats... punks |

And what about how a child feels as they ride the bus to school and they see all of damage to their community. It it ha sad for not only our state but the whole country. It reminds of how I felt after 9/11. I predict our country will never be the same because of the selfish actions that continue to take place in Ferguson.
thats just it they don/t care |

eta... Sorry for the double post.
They use their kids like this all the time. The parents don't want to commit the crime because they might have to do the time. A juvenille gets a slap on the wrist..LOL |

I work for the government (post office employee) and can't get health insurance because I am ONE hour under the 30 hour a week mininum requirement. But then Obama goes and grants 5 MILLION illegals FREE health care and granting free green cards????....and that rediculous speech of his last night????.....my blood gets boiling! Why aren't we doing anything about this????? Everyone is turning a blind eye??? No..we aren't turning a blind eye. The civilized people voted in midterms and voted some of the BS out of office. The government can't give free stuff to their undocumented voters if they are taking care of the legal people.

That man should be prosecuted under the federal law for inciting a "riot"......Under federal law, a riot is a public disturbance involving an act of violence by one or more persons assembled in a group of at least three people. Inciting a riot applies to a person who organizes, encourages, or participates in a riot. It can apply to one who urges or instigates others to riot. According to 18 USCS § 2102 "to incite a riot", or "to organize, promote, encourage, participate in, or carry on a riot", includes, but is not limited to, urging or instigating other persons to riot, but shall not be deemed to mean the mere oral or written (1) advocacy of ideas or (2) expression of belief, not involving advocacy of any act or acts of violence or assertion of the rightness of, or the right to commit, |

^THIS^.. When I heard he said this just before the riot started.... My 1st thought was he incited it and should be held accountable. |

The Rioters in Ferguson Mo. belong to the only race of people known to burn their own house down in anger.
Some aren't even from that area and are actually burning other people's stuff, not to mention burning others businesses and wrecking their livlihoods for their employees. Usually won't destroy their own property but when a person doesn't put any blood sweat and tears into something, sure, they'll destroy it cuz they don't know how hard it is to accumulate. It's so irritating to me and I can't imagine how devastated the business owners are...

I guess the people in Missouri have lost their balls. Back in my time there would have been a bunch of dead rioters before they burned or looted anybody store. I'd have been on the other side of my door with a shotgun just waiting for some a$$hole to come through. |

I don't know what they are trying to prove with the looting/rioting. It proves the exact opposite of their intention. They are making themselves look like fools. |

Not only do they look like fools, they just destroyed the livelyhoods of people that had nothing to do with what happened. The only message that sends is that, if they don't like the outcome of a certain situation, they just might have to destroy everything around them to make sure the misery is equally shared. makes no sense at all. |

The one thing they got right was releasing the verdict time. I'm very thankful that the majority of the good were home and not able to be "picked off" returning home from their work locations. I hate that the Fire Fighters have to be in harms way. It's very difficult fighting fire and warding off bullets.
And to the one that said...I'd be on the other side of the door with my gun...they would burn you out as soon as they knew you were there.
Many may never rebuild as insurance won't cover during civil unrest. |

I agree. Its such a shame to destroy your community which is already in distress... I hope they are happy with themselves. Justice was served yesterday. I personally think they should go around to every protestor and collect name, dob, address and then flag them in their system so when they have an emergency... responders can say dismiss their emergency because obviously they don't trust or respect LE. So apparently they can handle it better themselves. |

And take their a$$es to jail! With all the camera's everywhere you can pick up the fools that are rioting. And make them pay for the damage! I can't believe they are getting away with this. |

I had not heard about this. I would imagine that nothing much will come of this one. I will say that if boys/men would wear a good belt and pants that fit it would eliminate the need to grab the waistband of your pants, which in a split second could make anyone think you are going for a weapon, so you can run, get on the ground or whatever. It would save lives and reduce instances like this. Prehaps they need to start a "save a clip - cover your hip" movement. That might accomplish more than what some of these they are proposing. |

I agree with this I was just saying that there are so many cases like this that happens that We never hear about. |

I am sure emotions were running very high at that moment. I have said many times I felt sorry for his parents (biologocal). I will say I was dissapointed with her display when the verdict was announced - she was in a very public location standing above everyone else and was sure to be seen. As for her husband - IMHO he was a part of inciting a riot and should be charged as such - but he will not be becuase that would send that town into another spiral. When he started yelling burn this b**** down that was a call for violence. |

Location: Missouri | I attended the Ferguson/Florissant school district, graduated in 1979 (I'm old). I grew up in that area and it used to be middle class/upper class area. It included black families then, it was not an "all white" neigborhood. Now I live a little over an hours drive from there. My parents moved out of that area a long time ago as well.
It makes me sick to see what it has become. It makes me sick that they care so much about this 1 individual, however they don't give a crap about ALL the individuals in their own community, of their own race, that they are destroying in his name.
I would love to see the citizens of Ferguson get fed up and defend their property, as the law allows.
Now there will be more people without jobs, more poverty. It's embarrassing! |

He should be arrested and fined. I don't care if he was emotional, it's inexcusable behavior..funny, the kid acted a lot like him. Wonder where he learned to act like a thug?

Location: Baden, PA | VonDigger - 2014-11-24 9:57 PM I'm headed off to bed here. But I bet things are going to get rather interesting over the next few days. We all know Jackson and Sharpton are going to be milking this for all it's worth. Anonymos(SP) is going to be all up in arms. The New Black Panthers are going to be raising the bounty on Wilson as well as leveling threats against anyone that disagrees with them and the KKK is going to make counter threats to them. Many of the businesses that are being looted are going to just up and leave since what they had there is going to be destroyed not only by the locals but by the "protestors" that were shipped in from other locals. This is just the start of it, I bet by the end of tomorrow, there will be Riots in many major American cities.
It's a day late, but I think that last sentence is starting to come to fruition, much to my dismay. |

Yep! In Minneapolis they were protesting and blocking the roadway. People jumping on vehicles as they approached the jam. One driver tried to drive through and ended up running someone over... Im sorry but didn't feel even a little bad... I would have done the same thing. |
