you know, this is going from sad, to upsetting, to just funny. i wonder how much of a social suicide this towns law enforcement can commit before either someone steps in, or hell breaks loose

Keep posting the updates. Shit is so fast on twitter that it is hard to keep up with, and I don't know who all to follow.

Speaking of "funny," apparently InfoWars has been live streaming from the streets (though they're not right now), and have been interjecting a ton of hilariously woo-woo bullshit while otherwise providing actually good visual coverage.

And then there's this:

"Woman on megaphone pointing out that nobody can leave because everyone lives in opposite direction to where police are herding. "

This is seriously pathetic. The fucking national guard needs to push the police out.

With all the lawsuits that are going to result from this, the Ferguson police are going to have to make a lot more traffic stops to make up the revenue.

They herded everyone to a lit parking lot lol Telling them they can stay in this lot as long as they want to protest.

**kuronosan** · 2014-08-20 00:59

Nope. Fuck that. Cops need to chill the fuck out.

They're trying hard to get everyone with a camera out of this area, it looks like. Problem is that most of the crowd is now just journalists lol
