NEW YORK (MYFOXNY) - Demonstrators gathered rallied in Manhattan Thursday evening to protest the shooting death of a Missouri teen.

A police officer in Ferguson, a suburb of St. Louis, shot and killed Michael Brown, an unarmed 18-year-old. Rallies in that community turned tense and violent and heavily armed police officers clashed with protestors.

No Flat Screen, No Peace.

Do any of these people have Jobs they need to get to?

Yep, they don’t miss a beat. I’m sure the media will bring that up. /s

This crap makes me pray for winter and a couple of blizzards.

Who are the clowns believing they have the facts?

I’ve seen story “A” and “B” and no mechanism to determine the truth.

This is different from the T. Marvin case where many facts were known, but ignored because they conflicted with a political agenda.

Here, they’re not known, and they still prefer the opportunity to play the race card.

So the World Workers or some other commie outfit managed to bus a couple of hundred people into the Port Authority. They walked a few blocks, snarled up traffic, failed to aggravate the NYPD enough to get the response they wanted and will be released in time to catch the last bus back to wherever.

Sounds like one more good reason to avoid Midtown [as if anyone needed one...]

This is a paragraph of a comment I posted on another thread about trying to “nationalize” the Ferguson shooting in major U.S. cities:

This “incident” couldn’t have come at a better time, and a variety of Dems (today it was that stupid Dem Congressman John Lewis, civil rights agitator) trying to nationalize this, hoping for riots throughout the fruited plain, hopefully in all the major big cities. Got to get that low information voter out to the polls in November.

It’s a possible strategy, I agree. But historically Democrat instigated race violence has usually done more for Republicans than Democrats at the polls.

Since when did most NYCers give a damn about Missouri? Most probably either never been there or know where it is. It’s one of those flyover states. This is all about a political cause.

President Smidgeon is licking his chops. But remember the Nixon landslide? It happened at a time when people were BAT-SH!T SCARED of riots in the streets. Bring em on.
