I'm not going back to dig through posts. You justified the start of this protest on several occasions so LE didn't cover up facts to protect their own. The beginning of this protest was not started too early you said. BOW and such was brought up. You even stooped to calling me names.

The owners don't want to be associated with a polarized topic. That's hardly groundbreaking. Call Boost Mobile and ask them their position on the Michael Brown incident. Or McDonald's corporate.

I said protesting early isn't a bad thing. It helps ensure accountability. That's almost a truism. Not here on the OT though, for some reason.

I'm not sure how that's related to the latest shooting.

Shouldn't they start early protest too. It wouldn't be a bad thing. No chance it would lead to a riot like in Ferguson, amirite?

I was lurking for quite some time before actually getting an account (product of office boredom for the first time) and I don't think I've ever seen a thread grow so quickly

Again, I'm aware of how business works. I was referring to the fact most don't feel that way. (you have mentioned several times) It was a play on the CNN narrative.

The hair store owner who was looted twice last week said that she is closing up shop and it sounded like she was moving... Said its not worth it anymore

Yeah, I'm sure most will stay in town when it's all said and done, but not all.

I would say again how fricking stupid this is. Total victim mentality.

You protest when there is something to protest. Not "before it".

UM no....it helps pre-form an opinion for a prosecutor/grand jury. Who in the hell are these folks to determine the guilt/innocence of the police officer? Now due to their outside influence it makes it more difficult for everyone else to do their jobs.

You would have been called dirty names back on P.250 for this kind of jaded attitude.
