A large police SWAT team showed up to a peaceful demonstration in Ferguson, Missouri and the scene is getting increasingly tense, reports Huffington Post's Ryan J. Reilly, who is currently on the ground.
Soon after the team of more than 70 officers came on the scene, they told protesters they needed to leave the area and that "this [was] not open for discussion," Reilly tweeted. MSNBC reporter Trymain Lee tweeted that police told the crowd, "Go home, return to your vehicles. The protesters responded, "Mike can't go home!"
"Your right to assembly is not being denied," the police said later over a loudspeaker.

“F*** Al Sharpton. He won’t come out here with us.”
“F*** you, Obama. What have you changed?”

Obama’s collectivist vision does just what you are talking about and what most countries experience, but we have never in America: the government deploying forces against its own citizens as enemies of the state.
You probably know this, but more people have been killed by their own governments then by all the invading armies in history.
We have been so blessed in Ameirca. We know nothing of the misery that has been the norm throughout the sad history of man’s oppression of his fellow man.

Between `entitled’ rioters and jackbooted police, there isn’t much to choose. Both are a threat to the majority who are peaceful nonparticipants.

Someone just threw a bottle. Police ordering crowd to disperse. Screeching, ear-splitting sound being played. Tear gas thrown.

I wonder if LA is in for the same after their recent killing. Certainly if it gets bad in Ferguson, it could trigger something there as well.
