It wasn’t Ukraine but I have seen protests in Belgrade first hand and this is worse.

Is it my imagination, but are there significantly fewer “protesters”, and even Black Monday shoppers, than expected (still a large number, but not as thick a crowd)? But far more in the way of, for lack of better, terrorism.

My last post, I promise...

MEANWHILE, IN OAKLAND...

Vivian Ho, San Fran Chronicle
-Lights just got cut at the intersection at 8th/Broadway. Some protesters still remaining, others trickling down Broadway

-Despite dispersal orders, crowd still at 8th/Broadway in Oakland, with garbage fire growing bigger

-People just grabbed a ton of coffee beans out of Starbucks at 8th/Broadway in Oakland, throwing/kicking them

-People are looting Starbucks at 8th/Broadway in Oakland. Windows smashed

(Isn’t the Starbucks in Oakland owned by Magic Johnson??)

Yes this is true. For the last several days the local news stations in St. Louis have been reporting the presence of the Communists, Black Panthers, Occupy, KKK, and I have seen quite a few SEIU thugs in the pictures that the news media here has shown.

Early this evening the local news reporters pointed out that so far, most of the arrests/troublemakers have been people outside of Ferguson.

Many of those businesses that are burning are owned by blacks. This is straight out of the communist play book and we have seen it before - in the 60s. Their big dream is to instigate a race war in the USA.

Governor Nixon declared an emergency and the guard was deployed, but tonight they have been missing in action - nowhere to be seen. Just a few minutes ago, he issued a notice for more national guard troops. Talk about leading from behind!

He also gave a big speech saying violence and looting would not be tolerated. My opinion is that a curfew should have been declared to take place shortly after the verdict was announced. And why make a big gesture to activate the guard, and not have then anywhere to be seen.

I am watching a car lot burn and cars exploding right now. We will be getting a police press conference shortly.

It is not that wide yet... and will be easy for them to spread out. I don’t think it is over. They will pick another neighborhood tomorrow or in the days ahead. There was some problems in others areas that were not even mentioned tonight.

There have been plenty of black leaders in the St. Louis area speaking out against this nonsense on our local news channels. There’s a reason this stuff is happening and its all related to the radical commie Marxist left wing idiots that have taken over the National Democratic Party.

I just wonder if anyone has told the Wookie that there’s gonna be a lot of food deserts and all kinds of deserts due to crap like this.

Democrat governors won't risk being blamed by the MSM for a "police riot" or a "blood bath." They prefer to let individual business owners suffer in isolation.

That is the media theory. Nixon was burned before for sending in the Guard, so now he is hanging back.

I don't buy that. All of this was orchestrated, from the planned window smashing, then arson to the deliberate failure of Governor Nixon to help until 1:30 a.m. I sense that the whole thing was planned to cause a sensational event for national political purposes.

Are you telling me that no business owner or otherwise peaceable responsible citizen in this “community” owns a rifle? That none of them have the balls or the smarts to confront these knuckle-dragging, genetically defective a$$holes? If I owned one of these business, I’d have already used every weapon at my disposal - and I have plenty - to “TWEP” as many of these SOBs as humanly possible.

Yeah - they’re getting ready to drop it on Ferguson - at least on the “black”ened portion of it.

But those are obviously the black “Leaders” the other blacks aren’t listening to...get my drift?

There’s classes within black community...and the low class don’t give a crap...

It’s a ‘culture’ issue period!

There was about 1000 to 1200 out there tonight in Ferguson then crap started with them throwing stuff at police. They scatter like rats into smaller groups and then they start looting, setting fires. (maybe 200 to 300 of them are there to loot and set fires)

South St. Louis City also had a bunch of protesters (no looting but they did shut down a major highway) - that crowd was about 1000 also. I imagine some of the Ferguson protesters headed over to South St. Louis City after the fires started in Ferguson.

Think Muslims...they won’t fire at their own either when it’s against the infidel..... Same with Blacks when they’re opposing/protesting whatever... they won’t fire on their own.
