What may happen is that one of these agitators will mix in with the crowd, throw a bottle, Molotov, fire a weapon or some such nonsense and trigger a bloodbath - that is the most likely way this gets out of hand.


Agreed. And then the usual suspects on here will happily pile on and conflate the two groups in order to disparage every single person involved.

And I am urging calm and quiet reflection. The internet is serious bidness - but we don't want to confuse our e-problems and e-disputes on here with the actual problems the people of Ferguson, as well as the authorities are about to actually face, Big Scrub. As long as we're talking (typing) on here, we're not killing each other, right? We can agree to disagree and everybody goes home alive.

That may not be an option in Ferguson and it is sad.

E.G. this thread on the OT is called "Official Ferguson Live Riot Thread"

LINK

Even though the links inside refer to planned protests.

Very clearly, many people are hoping there are riots.

Very clearly, many people seek to paint ANYONE who has an axe to grind in the case as nothing more than a common "rioter".

How can anyone deny this with a straight face?

A mob incites mob mentality eventually. Now if the protestors turn and head towards home when the announcement is made, you might have a point. However, I see a lot of good intentions going the way of bad reactions if they hang around with the rioters.
