The families of many police officers in Ferguson, Missouri, are in hiding or running from town amid death and assault threats.
One police wife told KTVI that she's received threats over the phone and she's been paranoid for her and her young daughter's safety ever since.

Their spouses work in the force and so they live where their spouses work. Others are stuck mainly because of issues surrounding being unable to afford to move anywhere.

If it is like many cities, the difference between bad and good neighborhoods is often only a few blocks.

Especially being a white police officer living there. An en masse resignation on the part of all the white cops in Ferguson might not be that bad of an idea. I’d certainly be considering getting outa Dodge if I were in that situation.

what is disgusting is so many Police and their families have been threatened by the blacks some Police took their name badges off when they were on “ protest duty”
So the blacks complained and that POS B O’s DOJ ordered them to wear them.
A reporter asked for the name of the person at the DOJ who ordered this but of course was never answered.

It is probably most practical for decent families to flee. Tough call.
Hard to fight if one has little kids and molotov cocktails are randomly smashing indoors and setting things aflame.
If all residents of a home are adults, it is likely easier to formulate a defense plan and trade sleeping hours, etc., etc.

Think Detroit. The place blew up and businesses left. Whites left and we have a ghost town in the making.

This is terrible, especially for those families with young children.

Use a volunteer simulated police family as “bait”; keep surveillance on them. Arrest or kill attackers; repeat as necessary.

Ferguson PD has erected a wood hut over their front sign, presumably as protection.

Herd them across the bridge into Illinois, and then barricade the bridge. Their boy Obama made this mess, let them deal with it.
