You and I both know there is a contingent out there that is hell bent on causing chaos. Are they just going to leave town? They are somewhere, and when they rear their heads what happens when Johnson is out marching with the group he has.


Got ya. Thought you meant the group that was currently at the spot Brown died. That group is peaceful and will remain peaceful.

I agree with you about that other contingent, but they're not out there yet. My guess is, Johnson isn't giving them any one place to rear their heads so if anything, I'd guess on isolated acts here and there. But frankly, isolated acts is no different than any other night, its just that the supposed reason for the acts changed.

I am so happy someone with a clue is now in charge.


He may be the better man for the job but he is the man he will listen to because he is black.

I will also bet that this current group will self police and help Johnson do his job.

Is it just me, or does it seem like every time the state police (whatever state not any particular one) are involved in "policing," that shite just seems to get done right compared to the local PD/SO?


I think that the State generally has more resources than the Locals, therforethey generally pay more and get the better employees. Generally.

Also, when they res;pond, it is to an "incident" so they send their "best and brightest", not the politician who got name chief.

But now you've isolated them as radicals and violent by showing solidarity with the peaceful protesters. Divide and conquer.

They won't do anything until dark. And you can deal with them then.

And St. Louis is a small town. I guarantee you that there's people who are talking about Chief Johnson saying, "That's Verna's boy. He was a good kid. I remember him playing football at McCluer." Or whatever. He's one of them. In more ways than the obvious.

I'm all for the peaceful protesters, what I am not for is the racebaiting section who WANTS the violence and such. There is a small contingent of them who are sad that the police are doing the right thing now, and they'll show their arse eventually. It'll be interesting to see what those who have been so active on twitter have to say now, and it will show their true colors.


I hear ya. But that begs the question of why did LE ever give them what they wanted in the first place? Frankly, for as smart as the local police chiefs think they are...they really got played by the BP's and all the others. Gave them exactly what they wanted. A dick measuring contest is exactly what they want.

Has this been posted yet?

New details are being "leaked"

quote:

Police did, however, offer some insight into the events leading up to the shooting.

According to reports, Brown was with a friend at an apartment complex when the officer attempted to get out of his cruiser. The teen reportedly initiated an altercation, pushing the officer back into the vehicle and struggling to retrieve his weapon. A fatal shot was then fired within the car, police confirm.
