When will the protesters get tired? Tomorrow? Friday?

Doesn't seem to be dying down at all

That is my stance in all these incidents. Most white people support fairness. The cause is usually hurt by people that riot, loot, etc.

I've called the #Ferguson jail and asked for the immediate release of @AntonioFrench and @TefPoe. No Bond Yet Set.

Was a great paper, i believe the guy who owned it also owned the American. Guy who ran the whirl was out spoken about the AA community stopping violence, he would have most of the actual stories on shootings, because people would talk to him, he could get all of the details, except names of perps.

Kicker was, he used to put clues in his articles for the Cops so they could figure out and make arrests.

It's been a late few nights and I'm just rambling out loud here. And I really don't wanna get into he was the best/worst president debate, but would most of these young cops have grown up during the Bush administration's run? I'm just wondering if they grew up in an era where torture was ok, where things like the Patriot act were seen as acceptable infringement of rights. Just blabbering.

THey won't get tired, only way to really stop it is to declare some type of curfew. As the cops become more brazen, the citizens become more bold.

No. It might even be a free paper. Not sure about that. Minority based though and pulls some weight in certain circles in the area.

Nah. I've disagreed with Redbone on a lot in this thread (the later parts that I've read) but one good point that he made was that infringements by people given power against protesting citizens have been going on for generations.

Sitting these guys down at roll call and giving them a quick Civics lesson won't change anything.
