I simply 'fall' into bed...after the day I've had!
I should have said
Especially if you’re....
I’m going to bed. My brain turned the lights off.
Besides, it’s now down to the walking dead and the hardcore anarchists(aka undercover FBI agents). Which will only slightly rise the crime incidence over it’s normal value.
((((HUGS Back ))))
...”Once the rioters see their buddies on the ground, not moving, they’ll head home”....
Too bad we can’t do same with all criminals.....because they do get away with their stuff they keep on doing it...jail for them is a temporary ‘sleepover’.
From the Reddit live thread:
Summary of brief press-conference:
Domino’s Pizza, Family Dollar, Self Storage, O’Reilly Auto Parts, McDonalds, all confirmed having been looted. Molotov Cocktails thrown, and police have been shot at and have had bottles thrown at them. Determined to restore peace to Ferguson.
Q&A How many injured? At least 2-3, a couple shooting victims. Not domestic shootings. No officers injured.
How many arrests? 7-8 as of right now.
Additional steps? Operational planning, evaluating resources.
“took a different way after dark...shooting, violence...aggressive premeditated acts which provoked a response.”
Sounds like any given night on Chicago’s Southside.

The Ferguson riots enter into 8 days of unrest. ‘65 Watts riot lasted 6 days, ‘92 LA 6 days, ‘01 Cincy 4 days
Cincinatti curfew that ended 2001 riot was from dusk to dawn, was also dusk to dawn in LA in 1992. #Ferguson is at midnight.

BREAKING
CNN just said the Gov has signed an order for the NATIONAL GAURD to go in!!!!!
Three autopsy’s being done....
Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said Sunday that the Justice Department would conduct ‘its own autopsy’, in addition to the ‘one performed by local officials’ and this ‘private one’ by the family’s Attorney.
Watched a streaming video of their local St.Louis Fox station, with a young lady who called their station complaining about being trapped in Ferguson. She was another of the “peaceful protesters” who needed to leave the area and travel back to her hometown (not Ferguson). She was “trapped” by the police.
She was VERY angry because the police would not let her through their line, to get to her parked car. She was standing a safe distance away from them, as they “POINTED GUNS” at her and others, and they “actually told her to STAND DOWN!!!”.
Now, she was !!trapped!! and very indignant that they weren’t letting her go home. They told her to walk home and that is miles away! too far to walk!
I actually laughed at her self-righteous indignation, at her utter shock in being treated like a person who was not a “peaceful protester” but might be someone who would throw a firebomb or brick.
The ignorance of the participants is breathtaking, that they believe & behave as if they’re at a street fair.

About time...this needs to end.
just heard it from a second source
Gov. signs order
Following coordinated attacks on civilians and law enforcement, Governor Nixon signs executive order directing Missouri National Guard resources to Ferguson
August 18, 2014
Jefferson City, MO-
Gov. Jay Nixon has signed an executive order directing additional resources through the Missouri National Guard to help restore peace and order and to protect the citizens of Ferguson.
Tonight, a day of hope, prayers, and peaceful protests was marred by the violent criminal acts of an organized and growing number of individuals, many from outside the community and state, whose actions are putting the residents and businesses of Ferguson at risk. I join the people of Ferguson, and all Missourians, in strongly condemning this criminal activity that included firing upon law enforcement officers, shooting a civilian, throwing Molotov cocktails, looting, and a coordinated attempt to block roads and overrun the Unified Command Center. These violent acts are a disservice to the family of Michael Brown and his memory, and to the people of this community who yearn for justice to be served, and to feel safe in their own homes. Given these deliberate, coordinated and intensifying violent attacks on lives and property in Ferguson, I am directing the highly capable men and women of the Missouri National Guard to assist Colonel Ron Replogle and the Unified Command in restoring peace and order to this community.
....”The ignorance of the participants is breathtaking, that they believe & behave as if theyre at a street fair”.....
Reporters are like Holly wood and politicians...their arrogant and ego ridden and have an overinflated opinion of their significance.
So if the Nat’l guard comes in what can be expected ?
