Store Owners 'Use Their Own Guns' As Police Back Away In Ferguson

by AWR Hawkins 16 Aug 2014

Looters in Ferguson, Missouri, were "met with little police resistance" as business owners say they "were forced to protect their businesses with their own guns" on Friday.

A reporter from Fox2Now even said "police cars were seen driving past some of the stores being looted and did not respond."

Two store owners told Fox2Now that they called 911, "were sent from one police agency to another," then "got no response."

Fox News reported that an angry mob formed "just before midnight" and broke into the very convenience store which Michael Brown -- the man shot by police -- allegedly robbed prior to being shot. There were approximately 200 in the crowd and some "began throwing rocks and other objects at police," hurting at least one officer.

Police responded by backing away to give the crowd room, but made no arrests.

An important lesson for those willing to learn.

“police cars were seen driving past some of the stores being looted and did not respond.”

I’m wondering if anyone else here would like to join me in an investment opportunity? We could pool together our hard-earned money, perhaps get some additional capital from family and friends and set up a grocery store in Ferguson that provided reasonably priced, healthy food along with quality, affordable household items. It would take a lot of work and sacrifice, but after a few years we might be able to make a small profit and provide something beneficial for this community.

I didn’t think so.

Colour Sgt. Bourne: Sir, sentries report the Zulus have gone. All of them! It’s a miracle.

Lt. Chard: If it’s a miracle, Colour Sergeant, it’s a short chamber Boxer-Henry point-four-five caliber miracle.

Sgt. Bourne: And a bayonet, sir, with some guts behind it.

No skittles? I’m disappointed. At least they got some MadDog. :)

And all the belts have been looted from those poor young men, apparently.

Right and ready.
Of course you need to realize that the myminstration injustice ministry will prosecute your arse to the ninth degree if you do murder dash kill the chosen ones even if your life is jeopardised or forfeited. You better have a backhoe to go with the gun.

Well FNL, I’d say it’s a SENSE of being aggrieved. Man is a moral creature, even if following a warped morality. It’s the illusion based game of hell: society crapped on us and therefore it deserves for us to crap back on it.

It takes a God sized answer to break this kind of evil captivating spell.

Never sell short what the hand of the divine can do. Holding grudges at the earthly level is dancing in time with Satan’s tune.

Seek it out for a vacation, probably unwise.

Traverse it for some other reason, only God can say whether or not, and if so, how.

Except maybe the one with the long vest, and you can’t see :-)

How long are you going to push this? How long are you going to assume the hand of the Lord to be inert?

So the cops back of and watch. To be sure though, if there was gunfire and some of those punks started going down they’d move in and try to find and arrest the shooter. If I am ever in a root situation I will be mobile and covering my place from multiple sites around it. Keep everyone guessing. Use the old artillery motto, shoot and scoot.
