Before this is over, the Ferguson police department will be dissolved, the city council will be recalled, and there is the very real possibility that the city of Ferguson will disincorporate.
The city council is falling all over themselves to give into the terroristic threats and demands of all the special interest groups who have come out of the woodwork and now smell blood. They have introduced bills that would in essence make coming to court optional and fines based on your ability to pay. They have introduced a bill that would cut their revenue generated in fines by half. This will severly hamper their ability to pay for an already overworked police department or provide much needed infrastructure.
What’s worse is they apparently did not consult with the municipal league about the ripple effect of such actions which will undoubtedly cause the the activists to demand the same from all the other governments.
There is now intel that there were DOJ plants in the protest on Hanley Road two days ago to monitor how the police arrest the protestors. Agencies are getting a spate of complaints now, some on incidents that happened months ago, by those who are now demanding FOIA on officer’s personnel files.
This is going to get worse, much worse. Whether or not it stays confined to the St. Louis Metro area is unknown but worth considering.

Another Detroit in the making. The problem is, where will the street rats migrate to when there is no more Ferguson? Perhaps they will become YOUR neighbor.
