FERGUSON, Mo. -- Demonstrators calling for the arrest of Darren Wilson, the police officer who shot and killed 18-year-old Michael Brown in August, are anticipating that the officer will not be charged. Many of them are predicting widespread protests if the grand jury reviewing the case decides to acquit Wilson.

A crowd of around 100 gathered Monday along South Florissant Road, with many calling for the arrest of Wilson, who killed Brown in this St. Louis suburb on Aug. 9. Two demonstrators, one of whom was a state senator, were taken into custody outside the Ferguson Police Department after they blocked the street and refused to move.

Wilson's case is under review by a St. Louis County grand jury, which has until January 2015 to decide whether or not to indict Wilson. The jury is receiving evidence about the case on the same schedule as the police, who are investigating separately.

As the protests, which began shortly after Brown's death, stretch into the fall, the crowds have thinned, the national media presence has faded, and hot cocoa and tea have replaced the bottles of ice-cold water that were seen during the early days of the demonstrations. Gone, too, are the military-style police vehicles that were widely seen as an over-the-top reaction to many of the protests; the vehicles have been replaced by police officers wearing normal uniforms....

Well, you didn't ask me, but:

In the twisted seditious mush they presume to call brains, it's being assumed that all that Rage will have the negro vote streaming to the polls.

"I keep seeing posts like yours, but fail to see how rioting helps Obama/Holder/Dems ?"

For Obama and Holder (along with Valerie Jarrett) social unrest and racial agitation are key elements to the strength of community organizing. Remember, Alinsky taught that the revolution is the revolution. Their goal is disruption, social upheaval and anarchy in general.

For the media, it is ratings first, followed closely by promoting all things liberal. Their ratings jump not only for the six o'clock and late night news, but the talk shows that run all day on their cable channels. For some reason the media overwhelmingly advocates for the destruction of US society. They would love to see large scale long lasting riot that they could play 24/7 like Katrina. Fires and looting would be good, street warfare and shooting would be even better.
