well, at 10:50 pm eastern, the police have moved in their vehicles and started to try to disperse the crowd again. visible rocks and other objects are flying
I doubt it is over with tonight. They will regroup. They did the other night.
Police megaphoning everyone in Ferguson parking lot except media needs to leave the parking lot...
do it now”....everyone who is not credentialed media needs to leave now...immediately or you may be subject to arrest.
If anyone should get shot in the incident, it would be too bad if it was him(/s).
OOPS. The cops are trying to clear the Ferguson Market Parking Lot.
They don't want to comply.
the police are moving, it's on now.
Things were fairly quiet until shots were fired about 15 minutes ago.
They should have kept the midnight deadline.
Now the drunks and druggies will be the only ones going out.
But.....he has a plan! He’s going to stand all night, every night wif his bruuuuuthers
Media told to go to their designated area....looks like whoever is left they’re going to clear out...
Yeah, it’s pretty loud, but us old rock-n-rollers are so damn deaf from decades of loud concerts, that LRAD can’t do anything to us. LOL!
No protesters except the white media.
Yea...the guy they just arrested and walked him out looked really under the weather!
the other night protesters hid in wooded areas and neighborhoods and they regroup after about 1 1/2 hours
Got em a few more...
swat at other end of the street telling protestors to move towards the police line area.
police line area is telling people to disperse towards the swat team
communication people communication
What?

Well I wouldn’t say no protesters.....but certainly more media now than protesters.
It looked to me like roughly 1/3 police, 1/3 “demonstrators” (including plenty of outsiders too, I am sure), 1/3 press, Amnesty International, etc., and one woman with an anti-Prop 7 sign who apparently got arrested - I’m not sure why - I can’t watch continuously.
Anyone compared these protests to the Tea Party events?
No tea gas, nobody shot, no looting. Place free of trash when event is over.
A few scraps...
