The protest in Times Square is not spontaneous but planned and coordinated

Good to know. Thanks
Actrually, you’re missing the Tussin HD. THAT is what makes the ‘Sizzurp’.
Actually^^
I know they’re involved at Ferguson, I don’t know if they are involved in these marches.
CRS helped organize marches by Crump’s astroturf group Dream Defenders in Florida that lead to the arrest of Zimmerman and the firing of the Sanford chief of police.
:) — Thank you.
I have a feeling all hell will break loose when dashcam recordings are made public.
Astro-Turf ? Really? Well, I do declare!
CRS is a sub-division of the Dept. of " JUST-US "
Yes , the Dept. of "JUST-US" contacted the "Dream Defenders", and arrainged for "Dream Defneders" transport, and presence for 'demonstrations ' !
So much for being "unbiased" or looking for 'equal justice'! out of the "JUST-US" Department .
Would you expect anything different from Holder ?
I wonder if she is related to Cleopatra Jones? ;)

I checked several cities. The pins link to facebook pages with photos. Most signs looked to be homemade.
Some where pre-printed
NYC
Philadelphia
Then there's this
Chicago
Of course it wasn’t spontaneous.
Neither was the one they had in Philly yesterday, either.
They have their networks in place, and they use them. No surprise.
There was a thread about an article that mentioned one of the last FB? posts by Brown saying something to effect that if he leaves this world today at least everybody will know that he cared about other people and not just himself.
Sounded like he was prepared to be a martyr for some “cause”, and it makes me wonder how this ties in with some comment early on about the “revolution”.
Anybody have any thoughts about this? I can find the link to the article about the post because I commented in the thread that I wondered what he was referring to. But I just now thought of the “revolution” issue. I was really busier earlier in the week and didn’t catch the whole story on that. Can somebody fill me in? Any chance it’s related?
How long does it take to make signs like those, and what are the earliest indications of these groups (mentioned in this thread) being connected to the story of Brown’s death?
How did this story first break, anyway?
Here’s that article: http://freerepublic.com/%5Ehttp://clashdaily.com/2014/08/michael-brown-case-suddenly-blows-wide-open-likely-slam-dunk-favor-police/
And here’s the FB quote:
“If I leave this earth today, at least youll know I care about others more than I cared about my damn self.”
“...But I just now thought of the revolution issue....”
First I heard of that, Butter... and same goes for the Facebook post too.
