Ferguson, Missouri (KMOV.com) – What started as a peaceful prayer vigil Saturday evening to remember a young man gunned down by police, has escalated into full scale riots and looting in Ferguson, Missouri.

Angry mobs have smashed windows, set fires and looted businesses as a massive showing of police, some wearing riot gear have moved into the area along West Florissant just south of 270.

Police are also responding to reports of shootings throughout the area. At one point, windows of a News 4 live truck were smashed out by the angry crowd.

I thought this was a Ferguson.

There is a lot of video footage confirming those pictures.

EMBARRASSED - that is a rail car with Tanks !!!! (I should have looked closer)

Heck, I would have unhooked them from the railcars and started to joyride through the crowds!

Without a doubt.......both Obama’s and Holder’s folks doing their usual thing. Ya would think after six years of their low life thugs in office they would be doing very well...not so!!! The idiots have been played, big time by Obama, Holder, The CBC and the NAACP!!!

I am not a fan of cops.

Me, neither. But all of a sudden some in here want the cops to gun people down for stealing a bottle of booze.

Forget Black Christians. If they support or worship Obama.....they are not Christians....but Muslim Brotherhood types!!! Not one word from African-American Christians or their leaders on the slaughter and destruction of Christians by Muslim terrorists through out the world, especially in Sub-Sahara Africa!!! Pastors, included!!!

Apparently this “child” attacked the cop and went for his gun and his homies were about to join him.

I stopped at QT in south KCMO (Raymond maybe?)

You must mean RAYTOWN, which is actually a separate city but considered as a suburb of KCMO.

Handed out at the rally.

Eyewitness speaks on the murder of Mike Brown: http://youtu.be/tfy5FiqzWHI

I have no way to confirm if this guy was with Mike Brown, but he claims he was and his version of events is vastly different from the officer’s. Someone is lying. I’m just not sure who.

[dfwgator]

I suspect as always, the truth is in the middle....Both sides have an agenda.

[no-to-illegals]

Haven’t checked scanners ... Are the scanners quiet so as not to give out info?

[Envisioning]

All organized and coordinated with “free” Obama phones.....lovely.
