[Pericles]

The restrictions serve the LEO's interest by keeping news helicopters out of the area.

Chief decided to not release the name of the police officer in the interest of his safety.

I wonder if other murderers are afforded the same discretion?

 

[PaulConventionWV]

What they should really be doing is starting a petition and collect signatures

Ok, now you're definitely trolling.

 

[DamianTV]

I almost wonder if the Cops themselves did not make those signs?

 

[Anti Federalist]

why didn't they just write some SWLOD?

By god that's what's needed here, a whole raft of SWLODs.

And the good cops speaking out against this murder.

It worked for the polite white folks in Fullerton...oh...wait.

Police in Ferguson Fire Tear Gas on Protesters
Standing in Their Own Backyard

"This my property! This my property!" he shouted, prompting police to fire a tear gas canister directly at his face.

He moved at the last second.


"This my shit!" West screamed irately after narrowly avoiding the gas canister. Eventually a friend grabbed him and pulled him back to calm him down.


"This is my backyard! This is my shit!" West continued screaming into the camera. He turned to the police: "Y'all go the fuck home!"

I couldn't make this shit up. B-damn!

"This is our home. This is our residence," West's brother added. "Why do you think people say 'fuck the police?' Because of that shit."


Flora Busby, West's mother, a soft-spoken woman in her 60s, came into the backyard to see if her sons were alright.


"We in our backyard!" she said. "Why you gotta shoot us?"


Again West shouted at the police. And again they fired another gas canister into the yard -- this one nearly hitting his house.


"It's pure ignorance," West responded after catching his breath. "I pay property taxes here. I should be able to be in my backyard any time."


He said that regular harassment by the Ferguson police department, often in the form of traffic stops, has been occurring ever since he was sixteen years old.


"They ain't gotta be throwing tear gas in my backyard," added Busby. "This is my property. We were just standing back there, my son was standing back there, and I go to see about him and they threw it."

I like how the outsiders are advocating for non-violence.
Poor ol' Al Sharpton will be out of a job if things go Bundy.

“The only good cop is a dead cop,” the message read, according to KTVI-TV. The anchor called it “very disturbing.”

Yeah, a sign is very disturbing. Don't shit yourself now.

Holy shit, those cops are sitting ducks. If anybody ever decides they've had enough it wouldn't take much.

 

[Antischism]

This is what happens when you systematically oppress poor people and minorities, and lord over them with a state-sanctioned domestic army of thugs. When the "justice system" is rigged against you, the only option left for people is to fight back in any way they can.

 

[SeanTX]

They also need to start a voter's registration drive -- voting along with petitions and strongly-worded letters of complaint will change things for the better ...

 

[Austrian Econ Disciple]

I'm sure some angrily written letters and some coordinated voting in the local election will surely fix this...meanwhile the same people who say they're on their side (looking at you white progressives) want to prevent the ability of these people to defend themselves...because Government cannot ever be totalitarian here! *snark snark*

 

[mrsat_98]

The cops think these unruly ones are animals.

And the unruly one think they are animals with rights.

Dam crying shame.

Oh bullshit. How about everyone should take responsibility for their actions.

They aren't "oppressed" any more than anyone else. They need to pull their pants up and start taking responsibility for themselves, rather than ask government to subsidize them.

It's more complex than just that. They were targeted by various special interests in the 1960s and generationally haven't been able to recover, thanks to an entrenched victimization complex. Sometimes it's easier to project shame and blame on the usual subjects instead of correcting mistakes of the past.

I certainly don't think they are currently oppressed though, since mundane is basically a mundane nowadays. There really isn't much a differentiation between the two.

Yep, once they start crackin' the guns open it's game on. This is definitely a precursor of things to come. This will be happening in multiple cities in every state across the country at some point.

 

[LibertyEagle]

As long as you see yourself as a victim, you will never be free.

after reviewing the case, after looking at all the evidence, I find their actions Justifiable and they should get backEBTpay.

Police to Ferguson Bystanders:
"You Are in the Middle of a War Zone"

They like to play fast and loose with vocabulary for effect, but some will take different view. "War" is most generally described as armed conflict between two sides. If that's they way they want to define it, then there is significance in this comment:

Holy shit, those cops are sitting ducks. If anybody ever decides they've had enough it wouldn't take much.

By the time there is war, then people have had enough. Armed conflict is the very consequence of people who've had enough.

If the police are going to be so dramatic, then they could not object to any casualties. Even war has rules. If you're a casualty of those rules, they you can't go back and redefine what is just.

You can't have it both ways. If you're going to define it as war, then you must be prepared to suffer the consequences. If citizens take lethal action against the other side, then that is justified in a "war zone."
