Police clashed with protesters in Ferguson, Missouri, on Wednesday as demonstrations have resumed over the police-involved, fatal shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown. Multiple arrests were made, though it was unclear how many, St. Louis Post-Dispatch reporter Joel Currier reported.
The community appears to be growing impatient as Ferguson officer Darren Wilson waits to find out whether or not he will be indicted by a grand jury in Browns death. Some in the community are vowing only a conviction will satisfy protesters.
If (Darren Wilson) doesnt get a guilty conviction, this whole nation is going to riot. St. Louis resident Whitman Harris told Currier.

Activist Eric Vickers also told the reporter that demonstrators plan to shut down the highway in Ferguson. At least 10 protesters were arrested after they unsuccessfully attempted to block Interstate 70, the LA Times reports.
CNN has video of police preventing the protesters from illegally blocking traffic:

Earlier on Wednesday, a brick was reportedly thrown at police, causing a skirmish at a gas station.

Yep. There are plenty of white hoodrats. Just who is emulating who is a toss up. You see these little skinny white boys running around trying to look hard. Justin Bieber comes to mind. I just laugh at the white ones, they are so stupid nothing can be done for them.
Well I said that because I didn’t want to alienate any of the black FR’pers we have here and let them know I view them differently (not that I really have to say that because they know they’re not like the hoodrats)
wonder how much Holder has to do with keeping things stirred up?
When I was finishing up at college. I needed a really cheap apartment. So I was semi-near campus and it was a mostly black neighborhood. I have to say the "boyz" left me alone and I minded my own business.
But the people I felt sorry for was the old black people who owned their houses in the neighborhood. They had worked hard in the mills and bought a house and kept it up. Then in their retirement years it was not even safe for them to sit on their own porches in the evening because of these feral idiots. That was 20 years ago. It was a shame. it's worse there now, but at least most of those folks have probably passed on.
Have police STOP servicing the ‘black community’.
When a call comes in about a break-in, refer them to Jesse Jackson. When a call comes in about domestic violence - tell them to call Sharpton or the NAACP. The city can save a lot of money by not having a police force....

Clean underwear means underwear that isn’t stolen.
These aholes don’t want justice. They want blood. They are the pawns of the anarchist left. They should be careful what they wish for.
He’s in the right spot to video a staged confrontation, though.
They're employed by the US government as voters.
During the second Rodney King trial, I walked past a Culver City gun shop with a line out front. Nice mix of black business owners and scared white studio liberals.
