Michael Brown died so that a few people could get some free hair care products.

Oakland PD stopped following the protesters near the Berkley line. CHP blocking traffic up ahead of protesters.

Yeah, I can agree, but it seems to spiral out of control quickly.

I’m not really interested in their false outrage, and if I lived there, I’d be even less interested.

frankly, I’m tired of this.

If they behave as criminals, then deal with them as criminals.

That’s about where I’m at on this.

A few maggot infested, white hippies yelling inane slogans while savoring their white guilt.

Rather pathetic.

I doubt there’s even two dozen of them. It’s a pretty small group.

judging from the feed, more like the Birkenstock store, and any head shops

At least they are not looting, burning buildings, throwing Molotovs, or shooting at helicopters.

The night is young, the weekend has just started.

The glitter has worn off the St Louis-Mike Brown incident after the video of him committing robbery and assault was released.

They might not be able to keep feeding this fire.

The police have set a line to stop the protesters from moving beyond it.
Protester just tried to break through and got arrested.

Still, what are they protesting?

If this is about Brown, there’s nothing to protest.

Dude, was a bad apple, with worms in it.

All they are doing is furthering existing prejudices against them.

This is a self perpetuating cycle.

Respect is earned, and so is disrespect.

They are not earning the former.

Can’t we just save a ton of money and give these neighborhoods what they want? Eliminate the evil cops, all they donis prevent them from doing what they want. Everybody wins
