The timing of the riots varied from unit to unit. The Gauleiters started at about 10:30pm, only two hours after news of vom Rath’s death reached Germany. They were followed by the SA at 11pm, and the SS at around 1:20am.[citation needed] Most were wearing civilian clothes and were armed with sledgehammers and axes, and soon went to work on the destruction of Jewish property. The orders given to these men were very specific, however: no measures endangering non-Jewish German life or property were to be taken (synagogues too close to non-Jewish property were smashed rather than burned); Jewish businesses or dwellings could be destroyed but not looted; foreigners (even Jewish foreigners) were not to be the subjects of violence; and synagogue archives were to be transferred to the Sicherheitsdienst (SD). The men were also ordered to arrest as many Jews as the local jails would hold, the preferred targets being healthy young men.
The SA shattered the storefronts of about 7,500 Jewish stores and businesses, hence the appellation Kristallnacht (Crystal Night).[30] Jewish homes were ransacked all throughout Germany. Although violence against Jews had not been explicitly condoned by the authorities, there were cases of Jews being beaten or assaulted.
This pogrom damaged, and in many cases destroyed, about 200 synagogues (constituting nearly all Germany had), many Jewish cemeteries, more than 7,000 Jewish shops, and 29 department stores. Some Jews were beaten to death while others were forced to watch.[citation needed] More than 30,000 Jewish men were arrested and taken to concentration camps; primarily Dachau, Buchenwald, and Sachsenhausen.[31] The treatment of prisoners in the camps was brutal, but most were released during the following three months on condition that they leave Germany. The number of German Jews killed is uncertain. The number killed in the two-day riot is most often cited as 91. In addition, it is thought that there were hundreds of suicides.[citation needed] Counting deaths in the concentration camps, around 2,000–2,500 deaths were directly or indirectly attributable to the Kristallnacht pogrom. A few non-Jewish Germans, mistaken for Jews, were also killed.
They will not be in my neck of the woods anytime soon. Temperatures will be dropping tomorrow. Tonight rain freezing rain than snow. Temps will be back in the single digits at night. Right an d the protestors will come up here in the UP of Michigan where they would freeze their backsides off in five minutes. It is nice when you live above the halhf way point to the Arctic Circle above the 45th parallel. Not many lunatics that desire to protest want to stand out in cold temps.
Counter demonstrate with signs: JUSTICE WAS SERVED. As for presence by your local Sheriff before doing so, of course.
Here are some other cities as supplied by Ferguson National Response Network.

Great move to do it during college football rivalry week. Also many high schools are doing playoffs now. If you see anyone doing the hands up, ask them who scored a TD.
Pant’s up! Don’t loot!

Yes, Rev. “Toon”. As in Car.
Ferguson isn’t my problem, Black racism isn’t my problem, poverty isn’t my problem, however if someone tries to rob me or cause me bodily harm, I shoot to kill. Case closed.
As an aside, a very interesting social media fight, the offshoot of the Old Democrat Party, the kKK has “taken control” of the Anonymous Twitter (re: Ferguson).

Pants up for decency!
Hmmmm...nothing in TEXAS. Gee, I wonder if these idiots realize you really don’t want to mess with (or in) TEXAS!?!
If anyone is going to one of the counter-protests. I highly suggest going armed. These people are not going to follow any laws, and it would be stupid to go out there unarmed.
Yawn
Well, as long as they keep their hands up where I can see them, fine, knock yerself out...
But please make sure you shower and use deodorant before venturing out and making your “statement”...
It doesn’t matter how many times it has been shown that Brown did NOT have his hands up, these liars will persist in their narrative. The press is derelict in their duty to report the facts to counter this lie, as usual.
Occupy WS has a little brother. Amazing how they look so much alike.
