Good...now they need a curfew and the national guard deployed.
You think that'll be enough to keep the local cops in line?
Agreed was a Military Policeman 30 years ago . This riot has been mishandled from the first night . After the first night the Chief of Police should have called for back up from the state police & if that wasn’t enough manpower then back them up with National Guard .
The St.Louis County cops need remedial crowd control training as they are waaay to eager to point guns at unarmed citizens,
More outreach to the local clergy to call for calm combined with enough manpower to do the “Stomp & Drag” backed up with tear gas will clear the streets .
Also the folks don’t have much faith in the integrity of the police. The cops have only after 5 days decided to announce that the cop who did the shooting was on paid leave not out on patrol,also now after 5 days they have announced that the cops would let a Grand Jury do the investigation into the shooting.
Combine this with the notion that folks no longer have faith in the honesty /integrity good character/
Constitutional fidelity of Cops ,courts politicians/government in general you will see more of this .
