Tune in here to for bigger coverage of livestream.
From another forum: "What was sad was listening to the scanner last night, as cops were panicked being told to stand down and retreat, as they were asking for back up and permission to mask up. The reason they were there is they were dispatched to a large disturbance in the first place. They retreated as they were being chased, and hit with objects being thrown. That's hard to listen to, and I imagine harder for them to have their nuts cut and told to retreat."

Duh, what's so hard? Practice makes perfect. DemRat lefties have been implementing the same communistic policy in public schools and colleges going on 20 years. Males - particularly white ones - have been put down, emasculated since Billy Jeff took office with HildaBeast behind the curtain scripting legislation. harder for them to have their nuts cut and told to retreat

CNN is covering this live right now. Interesting enough FNC has not. There is a case that was thrown out concerning Occupy Chicago protestors in 2012. Read here cause those people in Ferguson have every right to assemble themselves on the streets per the First amendment and the cops have no right to infringe on that right. www.suntimes.com/news/met...cago-protesters-case.html

Not if they're intoxicated in public, which many of last night's grieving revellers were. .....they have very right to assemble themselves on the streets...

Touché, mon ami. Not if they're intoxicated in public, which many of last night's grieving revellers were.
#7. To: Obnoxicated (#5) (Edited)
That's not what I got from talking with many of the protestors. Perhaps, CNN or KMOV was implying that by what the cops were telling them. They will be having a march in Ferguson at 6 a.m. today. Many of them are still camped outside until then. There were over 200 protestors there. And they are not leaving!

A belated thank-you purplerose. I'll try this link tonight.

Perhaps the 200 protesters you speak of had good intentions...initially. However what went down later in the evening was a different kettle of fish. The "protesters' who showed up were violent looters and rioters. They outnumbered the good intentioned peaceful protesters significantly. Even the "well intentioned" protesters were packing heat and taunting police. There's the problem - when violent individuals put other Americans' lives and properties at risk - it's not a 1st amendment issue any longer - "protest" should not threaten and attack the rights of others - what's happening in Ferguson in the evenings is a law enforcement issue, not peaceful protest. These are criminal actions that "protesters" are engaged in after hours when TV cameras aren't running. You are deluding yourself if you believe otherwise. www.cbsnews.com/news/ferg...t-broken-up-after-curfew/ snip Saturday marked a week since a white Ferguson officer, Darren Wilson, shot and killed 18-year-old Michael Brown on Aug. 9. The shooting ignited racial tension in the mostly-black suburb and has led to looting and several run-ins between police and protesters. Patrol Capt. Ron Johnson said the timing of police action on Sunday was coincidental. Police received a report that people broke into a barbecue restaurant and some were on the roof - creating a potential danger for officers trying to disperse the protesters. Police were responding to that report - not the fact that protesters were still on the street after curfew, Johnson said. Things got worse when a man with a handgun went into the street as police were nearing the restaurant. He ran away, but there was plenty of violence. A man was shot and critically wounded in the same area. Police were searching for the shooter. Someone shot at a police car - it wasn't clear if it was hit. Jayson Ross, who was leading the protesters toward police before the canisters were fired, said: "They got guns. We got guns. We are ready."... ...Members of various black community groups were urging people to abide by the curfew, which runs from midnight to 5 a.m. Sunday, reports CBS affiliate KMOV-TV in St. Louis. A woman from the New Black Panther Party walked the street with a bullhorn, telling the crowd: "Please, please be out of the area by 12 o'clock." Some responded to her pleas by cursing at police, while others acknowledged they planned to leave before midnight. But Keyon Watkins, a 26-year-old computer science worker from St. Louis, said that if many others stay in the street, he would join them. "All of this is just building up -- pent-up aggression by being mistreated on a daily basis," Watkins said.

AJ has some good reports from Joe Biggs in Ferguson right now.
“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken

it would be interesting to see what some of the posters here were saying about the peoples protesting the Egyptian government. were they pro, con or dgas?
I used to be in a hurry, then I figured out I was just getting nowhere fast.

what part don't you get?

Your comparison makes no sense, if you want the harsh truth.
#15. To: scrapper2 (#14)
if you have the truth lets hear it.

Los Angeles is already hitting pavement tonight folks. Check L.A. live feed from Downtown Parker Center L.A.P.D. www.ustream.tv/channel/inleague-press Yo, scrapper2, coming to a town near you.
#17. To: IRTorqued (#15)
What does truth have do with the fact that you tried to make a comparison that made no sense? if you have the truth lets hear it.
#18. To: scrapper2 (#17)
okay so you have no truth.

#19. To: purplerose (#16)
They'd be very stupid to do so. My town has an over representation of cops. It's almost embarrassing. Lots of monied movers and shakers here who own very expensive homes.( alas, not me) I seriously doubt Tyrone and Jeremiah would get too far with looting here. Yo, scrapper2, coming to a town near you.
#20. To: IRTorqued (#11)
I'm sorry I missed your post. Yes it will be quite interesting but you know some people will never get it.
#21. To: scrapper2 (#19)
Like I said, coming to a town near you. Don't expect the cops to be there for you. And when the curfew is in effect, you best not be outside or they will ask for id. I hope to God they have the National Guard out there and not the SWAT team like they have going on in Ferguson right now. The only news outlet covering this right now is CNN. FNC won't go near this.
#22. To: purplerose (#21)
They do Israel 24x7x365. FNC won't go near this.
#23. To: purplerose (#21)
In my town, oh yes, they'll be there for me and anyone who calls for help. We've got cops up the wazoo here. They know they have jobs in this crime free town by the grace of taxpayers who don't think over representation of police per capita is "too much." Don't expect the cops to be there for you.

This was a humorous tongue-in-cheek post on the scanner thread: stopitall2014 enough is enough just get the water cannons out and start making arrests and cracking heads!!! 13 minutes ago

double standards on the peoples rising up against tyranny maybe?

#27. To: scrapper2 (#24)
Well, this might be "tongue and cheek" to you but to the rest of the concerned citizens, this is for real. Ain't nobody going home!
#28. To: scrapper2 (#23)
Don't be too sure about that.
#29. To: IRTorqued (#26)
Perhaps so.
#30. To: Deasy (#25)
thank you for the link, much appreciated.

I've been listening to the police scanner for a while - crazy antics going on: shootings and looting!

they make darwin proud.

Does one rise up from tyranny by burning community businesses to the ground?
#34. To: scrapper2 (#24)
Is the St. Louis county police scanner choppy and off all the time or is it my connection? What's going on now?
#35. To: IRTorqued (#26)
Quotes to support this suggestion? Seems that most of the comments I read in that sequence are for keeping our hands off the Mideast. double standards on the peoples rising up against tyranny maybe?
#36. To: X-15 (#31)
It appears Captain Johnson, the Black, hand picked choice of the Governor, has siht the bed on this one.
#37. To: IRTorqued (#26)
har, har, har that's the funniest post I've read all week! so in your mind, criminal looters and lawless rioters in Ferguson, MO are "rising up against tyranny"? like the Egyptians? wow, Egyptians protesting a military hunta removing their democratically elected head of state might take offense to be lumped together with Bubba and Tyrone, who are just funnin' around stealing stuff... double standards on the peoples rising up against tyranny maybe?
#38. To: Jethro Tull (#36)
Unless a lot of police officers are down, or a lot of black protesters are injured or killed, he's done his job according to "Hold the Affirmative Action Line" Holder's requirements. (I'd say.) Heck with property. Heck with public safety. Heck with upholding the law. Holder's type makes law.
#39. To: All (#37)
I got it.
#40. To: Jethro Tull (#33)
if that is what it takes then that is what it takes. ask the peoples of Egypt as they can give you much clearer insight than I can. all I know is that I am responsible to protect my family from those who would do them harm be they tyrants or the tin tits working for them and anyone else.
