JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon has declared a state of emergency and activated the National Guard in advance of a grand jury decision about whether a white police officer will be charged in the fatal shooting of a black 18-year-old in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson.

Nixon said Monday that the National Guard would assist state and local police as needed, in case there is civil unrest when the grand jury's decision is announced.

There was no indication an announcement is imminent....

Obviously, then, Wilson is NOT GUILTY! I hope the NG issues more than one round per soldier.

They’re there to protect the anarchists, communists and ferals, not the shop-owners & residents. Welcome to Obamaville.

Any joker dropping a string of firecrackers as a prank should be put away for life.

The story is flawed. It is mandatory to say, “unarmed black teenager.”

Except when violence and mayhem is committed. Then only "teen" is allowed.

I thought the recent surge in zombie flicks and shows, and sale of zombie gear, was so ridiculous until I realized it was a great way to gear up for ferals while posing as a “zombie prepper”. When I would take my kids out on hikes I’d always tell them to look out for ChiComs (instead of our likely adversaries - wanted to spare them that when they were young), but that never seemed realistic in the woods along the NJ/NY border. This zombie craze makes it more plausible and fun!

(The edged weapons I see in catalogs now for zombie fighting are great, but too many neon colors)

Enough with the foreplay, already!

When is this ‘announcement’ scheduled to take place?

I was thinking Black Friday, but November 22nd is as good a date as any.

They are not going to riot in 30’ish degree weather. They’ll be at home staying warm and talking smack on social media.

Rioters on ice would be pretty amusing.

Would make an amusing new Disney production. "Rioters on Ice"

The officer will have to be secreted away somewhere by the FBI, and given a new name. It’s too bad for him and his family.

The first thing they’ll do is confiscate all defensive weapons from the law abiding.

If it’s anything but favoring Brown, there will be riots. Believe it. The media has fueled this, and I think they should all (mostly) be given the same punishment as lawyers.

The situation has already gone way beyond what it should have.
