Protestors blocking I-70 bridge in downtown STL, right now. Ferguson Mayor's Presser just ended.
No doubt that events will "Heat up" again tonight.

Everybody okay?
Per twitter, protestors gathering in Oakland, Durham, Charlotte, Atlanta and LA.
Yes it was reported on local news channels a week before the verdict, that the Communists, Black Panthers, Occupy etc. were in the area and handing out flyers, having meetings, etc.
Norwood country club is right next to Ferguson. Very nice course.
my apology Sarge. Should have ‘pinged’ you and not left you hanging. Glad you are here.
Several people on the car lot where the cars were torched last eve.
Needs more Killdozer.
Gotcha, I can’t pull Twitter, so I depend on others to report as needed.
Cleveland PD Dispatch staying steady, armed black men accosting a white woman, cars stopping and blocking traffic
I know. They broke his windsheild. That’s terrible.
Ok, tough guy. You win.
Durham has a reputation among North Carolinians. Very militant, large black population. People from out of state only see the area around Duke University or the Research Triangle Park end of town. Most of it is not like that. It could get ugly.
Yes.
No. You will never convince me that running a woman down with a car is to be admired or respected. If you are so brave, get out of the car and attack her.
Don’t lawlessly block traffic while protesting in support of a dead thug and it won’t be an issue.

Missouri Lt. Gov. Rips Gov. Nixon Over Lack of National Guard Presence in Ferguson
EXCERPT
Here is the question that the Governor must answer. Kinder stated. Is the reason they were not in there because the Obama Administration and the Holder Justice Department leaned on you to keep them out?
I cannot imagine any other reason why the Governor who mobilized the National Guard would not have them in there to stop this, before it started, Kinder said angrily.
.... As the news broke yesterday afternoon that they would announce it at 8 oclock Central Time last night, the Lt. Governor said, a lot of us were scratching our heads. I think I would have chosen 6 a.m. this morning and had the grand jury meet accordingly to meet that time schedule, rather than an evening announcement when darkness had fallen and the bad folks who were out in force last night had several hours to do their work.
Your listeners should know that there is no communication by this Governor with the rest of state government, Kinder said accusingly. I sent a staff member of mine down the hall, on the same floor, to the Governors Office about an hour ago to inquire about a brief before I went on your air, and I have nothing, Martha. I have nothing.
...
Its been this way for the six years of his governorship with about four or five exceptions that were not nearly as serious as this when they did reach out to me for some pending announcement.
Coward.
Obama heckled over immigration policies in Chicago appearance http://reut.rs/1yUcZmQ
Yes, I was listening to the press conference live when the official stated that. I don’t remember his exact language, but that was his instructions.
He said, he told the them “guys just let them go” have their protest, like any other large crowd event, sporting event - words to that effect.
I thought it was the county executive speaking, at first, but on further reflection, IIRC that it was actually Chief Belmar of St. Louis County - Ferguson police are not in charge - it’s the County police and County Commissioner and Governor that are in charge, and a sorry job they are doing!
My comment is, how much longer are law abiding citizens going to put up with their lives being interrupted by this trash? In other words, when are they going to start running over the bastards that are blocking the roads, preventing them from going about their day to day business earning a living. It is plain that the police are not going to do anything.
