Correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't seen a single article on Free Republic, or on any place I frequent, talking about the three nights (so far) of rioting in St. Louis after that verdict.
St. Louis police is reporting on their twitter that just tonight, there has been significant damage done to businesses in the downtown area, chemicals thrown at police, arrests, injuries received by cops, and weapons and ANTIFA/BLM flags confiscated from violent criminals.
See the link above for more information, as I don't know how to post pictures from twitter onto free republic, unfortunately.
They actually think they are like Sparta!

Fouling their own nests!
It appears Democrats and liberals in the media now realize these riots are hurting the Democratic party. Thus, the reason they are being downplayed.
Saw something earlier, but can’t find it now.
Time to get the wooden shampoo out and start washing some hair...
Another Soros riot? yawn
BLM/Antifa Communists are doing damage to the Democratic Party brand. Love it!
I hope they keep it up.
Looks like there was an article on FR, but notice it’s Frontpage Magazine doing the coverage. Anything on Fox, at least?

St. Louis has been a center of militant activity in recent years following the police shooting incidents.
It extends out pretty far because I saw “Ferguson” t-shirts on people in the middle of Illinois when I passed through last year on my vacation.
STL is potentially dangerous for travelers because of the potential for road blockages and or attacks on the interstates.
I passed through the area when the tensions were low but this weekend I would not have even considered travelling the interstates in the STL area.
The Democrats don’t like them and they are trying to calm them down.
I’m sure the FBI has informants planted in their ranks, too
I thought that the purpose of street theater was impressing the audience. What if they held a riot and nobody came?
Saw one story on FR about cops hit with rocks. Other than that nothing.
Colin Flaherty has done at least 2 videos just recently in the Loop shopping area in St. Louis. Crime by the “youth”, aka the anti-technology Amish, aka “troubled children who are victims of white racism,” seems to be a major problem there.
I guess that means the little d-bag is dead right? LOL
Hickory or ash?
Without top cover from the Justice Department to restrain the police, they can’t get the local kids to run wild looting.
So it is mainly just a few busloads of out of town communist agitators trying to run from one part of town to another every couple of hours for some flash mob vandalism, trying to look like they are a bunch of spontaneous outbursts.
The Feds should prosecute the dozens who have been arrested. Squeeze them, flip them, and roll up the network.
