One of the most frequently quoted and photographed Ferguson protesters was charged Saturday with setting fire to a Berkeley convenience store earlier this week.

I guaran-damn-tee you if a single true "Tea Party" advocate were apprehended for doing these acts, the NY Slimes would carry it for six weeks straight on page one.
You have to dig to find the mug shot. For some reason, the "objective" journalists at St Louis post disgrace don't have this photo on the front page.
Another community organizer flames out.
Film at 11.
His mugshot brings to mind, “If I were a Bullfrog”, sung to the tune of If I were a Rich Man.
If Obama had a .....
Just keeping the flame of justice burning, or some crap like that.
That was a felony. I really don’t see it getting pleaded down. If it does, the people who have to live there really should riot.
“Film at 11.”
There will be no film at 11. It might be mentioned on the 5:30AM news on Sunday morning, though.
LOL, He has a Get Out Of Jail Free Card
A walking silhouette.
idnt that Charmange Jackson??? The brother that Michael didnt want us to see?
Another aspiring rapper no doubt.
Everyone knows that setting fire to a building is equivalent to releasing white doves.
"Josh is one of the young activists, and all of us have taken close to him. We got to know his heart, and he got to know ours," said Bishop Derrick Robinson, of Kingdom Destiny Fellowship International. "He's a great kid, an educated kid, a child who knows what he wants and is very active in the community."

Williams' most recent confrontation of St. Louis police Chief Sam Dotson during a Ferguson Commission meeting landed him in the pages of this newspaper.
Williams came within feet of Dotson and shouted at him as he tried to answer questions from the panel. "Can someone please get this lying (expletive) hoe off the mic," Williams yelled.

Police say Williams used lighter fluid to set fires inside and outside the QuikTrip. He was charged with arson in the first degree, a felony. He is also charged with felony burglary and misdemeanor stealing for allegedly taking a lighter, gum and money from the store.
Williams has been quoted as an advocate for peaceful protests.
The Bishop left out he's also a confessed arsonist.
We are not supposed to dwell on someone being a racial or ethnic minority related to all these protests and violence.
Wow amazing he’s a peaceful person a great kid and all that. He’s leading peaceful protests but he wants to burn down buildings?? What the heck???
Hopefully this piece of garbage will end up with at least 20 hard time.
Yep, he sure sounds like an "educated kid"...
Maybe it was peace-fire.
Resume’ builder to run for democrats in the future.
Awfully young bishop; looks like he’s in his early 30s.
