Gov. Jay Nixon of Missouri ordered more National Guard troops into the embattled city of Ferguson on Tuesday to keep order on the second night after a grand jury decided not to indict a white police officer who shot and killed an unarmed black teenager.
“The violence we saw in areas of Ferguson last night is unacceptable,” the governor said in a statement. He pledged to work for the protection of lives and property and said more details would be released later.
On Monday night, at least 12 buildings were burned, police reported looting, and gunfire broke out repeatedly. More than 80 people were arrested in Ferguson and nearby St. Louis. The civil unrest followed the grand jury’s decision not to charge Officer Darren Wilson, who shot and killed 18-year-old Michael Brown on Aug. 9.

“There are a lot of citizens in Ferguson that have nothing to do with the shooting, they are not protesting and they are not looting. They are stuck in a nasty situation. One that they likely never imagined happening.
One essential task of government is to stop people or groups from harming citizens. I would estimate a majority of the scumbag terrorists are not Ferguson residents.
Imagine it is your neighborhood, your block in your city.
Well I gotta tell you, I was ready for that, not that I expected it. I was watching the reports and the news and saw the out of towners and Blank Panthers pouring in. The *peaceful protestors* in Ferguson cannot have expected anything but what happened. There was no indication this was going to be anything but a cause to riot. None. If it were my neighborhood, my neighbors and I would have figured out how to handle it,,and we wouldn’t be complaining if we made the choice to stay. If the peaceful protesters are that unaware of the situation, then they need to get up to speed real quick.
Real simple solution................PEACEFUL protesting allowed, looters, vandals, violent protesters will be shot. There will be NO warning shot. Your choice, pick one.
More? You mean ONE is going to show up this time?
I admire those brave Koreans. If I had a business in Ferguson’s hot zone, I would be afraid to protect my business unless I had a lot of backup. #1 Who knows what kind of legal trouble I’d get into. #2 What if the looters rush you? You might be able to take down one or two but what do you do with the rest rushing you?
“Alinsky” infowars as a source of “news?” Not necessary, LOLOL.
For instance Sandy Hook. It was and is a complete hoax. Anyone who has put serious time into investigating it knows the entire event was fiction.
I won't argue it with anyone right now- I don't have the time. I will however refer them to sandyhookjustice.com for updates on the investigation being done by Wolfgang Halbig. He was a Florida state trooper and the leading school safety expert (nationally) for decades, and originally believed the MSM story.
It was only in updating his case study materials that he got suspicious when he hit one roadblock after another trying to get some basic questions answered. His inquiry was not invasive, intrusive, or insensitive or harmful to the family members of the purported victims. Even so, he has been threatened by federal and state law enforcement to back off and stop asking questions. His investigation even goes against his financial interest, but he is a true patriot and will not be bullied into silence. His character and reputation are impeccable, so even if people have problems with Alex Jones they should not be so quick to write off Mr. Halbig.
As soon as Fox News reports that SH was a hoax I will take them serious again. I'm not holding my breath on that one. But as things are now, they won't touch any issue that they aren't given permission to.
That much is clear to me.
Lastly, people (regardless of whether the get their news from Fox or InfoWars) should not accept or reject a story simply because of the source.
Everything must be approached with caution and carefully scrutinized.
Suburbs are hiring PMC’s (mercs) for protection.
We are in the early stages of a collapsed State. The agreement was that if you allow the State to have a monopoly of force, it will try to protect you.
From a grand strategy point of view, this is very troubling.
No problem...:)
If they are innocent in Ferguson, they need to leave. Now. Immediately.
The State of Missouri does not view them as worthy of protection.
Yeah, I’ve thought of that too. I wouldn’t be alone for sure. I do know that if I was the only business protected by armed guards the likelihood would be the looters would pick a target with less risk. I doubt they would risk being the first through the door.

Like an earthen dam with water running over the top, it quickly erodes to release the whole pool behind the dam. Only immediate and massive response can prevent total collapse.
Agreed.
Hopefully, someday, we may find out even a tip of the iceberg of the real goings on.
But, if that day comes, some people are going to suffer from serious cognitive dissonance.
Like an earthen dam, once you notice it trickle out the side, it is probably to late to save.
When the McDonalds and the liquor store were looted there was not a cop in sight. I’m sure most of them would have preferred to be shooting looters instead of being held back.
But only if the armed uprising is by constitutionalists; thugs and thieves get a pass.
Yeah, I guess, in Sanford, FL and Ferguson, MO, eh?
Every one knows it was the evil stupid/genius George W. Bush who overrode the cockpit controls using the HAARP array.
Honestly...
Gatlin gun; M-16; Flamethrower etc.
