I think that they are being instructed how to react by someone higher up in the power structure. The boss of that someone probably occupies 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington D.C.
Will be interesting to see what happens if the St Louis police decide to go Galt.
INSURGENCY.
But notice how the media is now always using the term, “anti-police/anti-government”
It’s an attempt to link these insects to the TEA PARTY.
RIDICULOUS.
I agree, but this is just so stupid. “Let’s lay on the ground here for as long as Michael Brown did” is a pretty ineffective tactic. Anyone knows if they’d removed that thug’s body two minutes after he was shot up, these same loons would accuse the police of tampering with evidence. The cops ought to make them stay on the floor until Saturday at the very least to up the ante.
It’s racist these days to defend civilization.
Any bets on whether the StL PD remembered to secure their armory and if not just how many automatic weapons are missing?
The cops can’t secure their own building?
This “I Can’t Breathe” BS is getting old. Time for the cops to put their foot down. We can’t allow Holder and Obama’s lawless nation to continue. There are still some good people living in this country who don’t appreciate all of this lawlessness.
St. Louis has long been a hotbed of behind-the-scenes liberalism. People there truly believe in leftist propaganda.
those who profit from chaos and division.
The key line in the whole article.
I’m thinking paint ball gun, with a mix of blue leather dye and itching powder.
Here is the group that is funding/organizing all this:

And, apparently, not being stopped by law enforcement?!!
Here is more info.
ST. LOUIS (KTVI) – In what was slated as a peaceful “March to the Arch” by Ferguson demonstrators, more than two dozen people were arrested and pepper spray was used by police. The melee unfolded as protesters tried to storm the St. Louis Metropolitan Police headquarters building.
About seventy-five people marched through the downtown area and eventually went to police headquarters. There, with the building on lockdown, the group took the opportunity to rush an open door. Several people pushed in.
Upon entry, protesters read a list of demands to department officials. Those demands included a meeting with Chief Sam Dotson, Mayor Slay and Board of Aldermen President, Lewis Reed. They also requested an immediate termination of Officer’s Hayes and Flannery. They want amnesty for protesters who have been charged with non-violent offenses, the creation of a diverse Citizens Review Board with subpoena power and a seven day release of all information regarding police shootings, not limited to transparent release of all unedited videos and audio.
Activist Deray McKesson posted several Vine videos and images via Twitter as the demonstration took place.
Protesters also placed Eviction Notices along type outside of the building.
Signed, ‘We the People,’ the notice read: “We are informing you that the police department is scheduled to be reclaimed by its citizens today, December 31, 2014.” Protesters also outlined reasons why they feel a power shift should take place.
There was quite a bit of pushing and shoving as police tried to clear the demonstrators out, with officers eventually resorting to the use of pepper spray to push the crowd back.
Five people were arrested in the initial scuffle. Police chief Sam Dotson says officers were justified in clearing the group out of the lobby.
“We’re a public building, we’re open. But we’re open for legitimate business. We’re not open for people to come in and push their own agendas and disrupt the business that has to go on here.”
Protesters were critical of police use of pepper spray, many saying things escalated too quickly, with one “live streamer” who had been hit saying it was happening too often.
“This is becoming too commonplace now. I don’t know,” the man told photojournalist Doug Larsen.
Police say all those calls are already in the met, or on the way to being met, and that protesters are now distracting them from other work with repetitious demands.
“The forty or fifty officers that it took to handle the disturbance that was going on outside police headquarters weren’t in our neighborhoods doing the job our citizens have asked them to do,” Chief Dotson said. “That’s a big deal”

Some situations cry out for the attention of Ma Deuce.
(2) Notice how this protest against the cops movement can go on and on ENDLESSLY in any American city...save one? Washington, D.C., that cesspool with magnificent architecture, doesn't put up with this crap. I've been there. The police are quick to put things down, and keep 'em down and under control. Quickly. And the press doesn't say a word, either. Some kind of unwritten understanding they have. It's the only city where this behavior doesn't happen. (Remember how they gunned down this crazy young lady in her car? The press didn't push the anti-cop agenda, now, did they?)
