FERGUSON, Mo. (Reuters) - Honking horns and banging a metal bucket, a small but growing group of protesters awaited Monday's grand jury decision, swarming the Ferguson Police Department and meeting briefly with the father of slain black teen Michael Brown.

Mike Brown Sr., whose unarmed son was killed by a white police officer on Aug. 9, slowed down in a car to chat with demonstrators after hearing that the secret panel had reached a decision on whether to indict Officer Darren Wilson in the Aug. 9 shooting.

Protester Byron Conley, father of a teen son, said he spoke with Brown about the pain of losing a child and "spending a holiday like Thanksgiving without your son. I could tell what he's going through."(continued)

STOP!!! My liver can’t take the pounding anymore. My Obama drinking word is “folks.”

[Crazieman]

I can’t, I’m already drunk 24-7 because of this stupid game.

Whoever decided to announce it at 8pm is helping out rioters. Giving them time to gear up and rock and roll!

"Protester Byron Conley, father of a teen son, said he spoke with Brown about the pain of losing a child and "spending a holiday like Thanksgiving without your son. "

Did the Browns buy their turkeys, or did they have the gentle giant rob the grocery store to get one every year?

Just saw Brown’s attorney on TV. He referred to the 6’4, 280 pound, 18-19 year-old Brown as an “unarmed child.” What a jackass. Imagine if a white person called someone like Brown a “child.”

There’s been video of Homeland Security equipment and forces at the nearby Drury Inn. I wonder if our new national police force will emerge.

Do these thugs set their watches to what time the lootin’ starts?

“I have an 8PM looting tonight honey, I will be back home before dawn.”

It’s not a protest without a drum circle of paint buckets.

“Yeah muh n-word! We be finna get our clownin’ on now!”

Why have a civilized judicial system when you can return to clan-based blood feud.
