The folks haven’t been looting since Monday night . The people of Ferguson are even BOOING & Cussing at Al Sharpton this is more than a riot over a shooting .

It is a protest over the police taking more than 3 days to announce that the officer involved in the original shooting was on desk duty & the lack of faith on the part of the locals in the honesty ,integrity & Constitutional fidelity of the local cops

“3 days”? That’s not true.

The officer was placed on paid leave, not desk duty.

There are numerous reports of this. Here’s one from Sunday

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/18-year-old-shot-dead-missouri-witnesses-article-1.1898333

and another

and others can be found at CNN etc.
