“Weekend of Resistance” in Ferguson takes disturbing turn: How did communists get involved in this?

The large scale protests in Missouri are back in force as people take to the streets in what’s being variously called the Weekend of Protest or Ferguson October, depending who you ask. And the media is once again out in droves.
Tense but peaceful protests over Michael Brown’s death and other fatal police shootings in Missouri and elsewhere stretched across the St. Louis region Friday as organizers urged hundreds of participants to avoid arrest so that they could return for a weekend of demonstrations.
The four-day event called Ferguson October began Friday afternoon with a march outside the St. Louis County prosecutor’s office in Clayton and renewed calls for prosecutor Bob McCulloch to charge Darren Wilson, a white Ferguson officer, in the Aug. 9 death of 18-year-old Brown, who was black and unarmed. A grand jury is reviewing the case.
A variety of groups, both local and imported, have shown up in the streets leading to some tense encounters. The video footage running pretty much non-stop on CNN today includes a few images which seem to indicate a not terribly subtle shift in the message. One of the ones which really stood out to me was a group of marchers holding a banner which read, “Smash Racist Cops with Communist Revolution.”
Where did that come from? I noted one protest leader interviewed by CNN which might give us a hint.

It is my belief that it originates at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington DC.

Is there complete desparation showing as it relates to Ferguson?
You be the judge.
Things are so bad for race-baiters, that they have to stoop to Ferguson, Missouri, for an issue to pour gasoline on and fan the flames.
Did someone light a cross on a front lawn?
Did the Klan hold another rally?
Was there a lynching?
Were blacks refused jobs?
Were black kids refused entry into a school?
Did someone get relegated to the back of the bus?
Did someone have to give up their seat to a white man?
No, none of this took place.
One black man stole merchandise from a convenience store. He assulted a staff member. On the way home he gave police officers guff for asking him not too politely to get out of the middle of a dark street so he wouldn't get run over by a sleepy motorist in the middle-of the night. Then he assulted an officer, tried to take his gun, and contributed to the discharging of the weapon in the process.
Outside the vehicle, the officer was charged a few minutes later by this man. The officer, already suffering injuries received during the prior scuffle, shoots the black man dead.
If the black man had gone home, he may have gotten off scott free.
In reaction to this, the police officer became the bad guy, to folks who have no sense of right and wrong whatsoever.
Where have all the valid issues gone? Al and Jessie, I know it's been decades since you could find something to get justifiable angry about, but I don't feel sorry for you guys.
You're in good company with the NAACP. You're simply decades too late. It's over.
The NAAAP has taken over. That would be the Natonal Association for the Advancement of All People. Read it and weap.

Thanks Onyx. It just seems silly to let it drag out for over two months.
We know we want Free Republic to be here. Why not do the right things and support it in a timely fashion.
Those that can, I invite you to chip in. Those who do or already have, thank you.
As a fellow FReeper, I appreciate it.

Unassimilated minorities are our communist fifth column; remember how the US flags were discouraged at the “million man march”? Remember the May Day parades a few years back (with all of the Mexican flags)?
I was fine with them doing that; they aren’t my countrymen, by their own admission.

The police should make the demonstrators rebuild the neighborhood. Every time these inner-city folks tear down a neighborhood, make them rebuild it.

I agree with your every word. Dragging it out 2 months is a strain on everyone involved. Thanks again, D-1.

How did communists get involved in this? They started it.
Is no one paying attention?

The communists have always been involved in race agitation. MLK was the ultimate communist tool.

American commies are crappy streetfighters.
You’re not your commie daddy’s Leninists from back in 1917, you pitiable 50 IQ apes.
The femi-Nazis have castrated your pea-sized manhood and made you hate firearms. Take that into the battlefield and die by the thousands.

The sad thing is that I thought it might actually be unaltered.
