Unless the BP's pull some stunt tonight, that group will be peaceful as ever.

Man whose name released by Anonymous now fears for life.

quote:

Kathie Warnack, 48, started quietly crying when she learned that Anonymous had released the name of her stepson.

The St. Louis resident said her stepson is a 32-year-old police dispatcher in St. Ann, Mo., and before that a manager at a dollar store. He has never worked as a police officer — not in Ferguson or anywhere else, she said.

Her stepson also doesn't live at the address released by the group and rarely comes over, Warnack said.

"Wow, this is not good," said Warnack, as she began to cry on the steps of her home, which sits along a busy road.

"I guess I'm going to have to sleep with my gun and put cameras on the house," she said. "Now I have to defend myself and I didn't do anything wrong."

But I thought they were against the police? Now they're cheering him on?

honestly that cop is doing the right thing.

"we are not your enemies" it's a really good approach for diffusing tensions.

yep, should've been done to begin with, it'll also make the radical "protesters" stand out and the good ones wont be grouped in with them..

I'm curious how the local police will respond though, seems they're not backing down

Here is a perfect example of Nadal and her comrades.

She calls out Jay Nixon, but doesn't say a word about Lacy Clay, who's district covers this area. Where is Lacy? Getting fitted for new suits?

Let's be fair if were calling out Politicians. Clay should of been on a plane for Ferguson Monday night.

I am wondering if the more violent individuals won't move down towards the park and try to stir stuff up where the county is still in control.

This is how it was last night, but then as it got dark, the peaceful people had left and the younger and more radicals came out.

Just asked Ron Johnson if MSHP presence would make a difference. He said, "I don't know, but I hope so."
