So I'm watching a livestream from Fergonson because I literally have nothing better to do, and this whole thing is just stupid. Protesters are limited to a sidewalk, but they have to keep moving. If they leave the sidewalk, a bunch of guys come over with guns drawn to tackle and arrest them. I assume they're police, but they're not wearing badges or name tags. One guy is in shorts and a wifebeater, but has a black vest and helmet on so I guess he's a cop. A couple blocks down they're turning on their sound cannon for funsies. One woman got arrested trying to cross the street to go home.

What's funny about this all, its just now echoing what the Alex Jones conspiracy theory folks when it comes to the Militarization of police forces in the US.  It's like the rest of the country is just now figuring out our govt follows everything we do electronically, and we beefed up police forces to the level of having the ability to overtake small countries.  Yup, all is well.

You leave him alone. If it wasn't for his glandular problem he'd have been in the Army!

So did this killer cop really have a busted orbital bone?

And if we did do we know for sure that Brown did it?

Because I would not put it past him having one of his pals wallop him a couple times to make that story work.

You probably don't stand around for four hours with a broken face. You maybe call for an ambulance or go to the hospital. I don't know, I'm not a doctor.

I'll be called a racist, but I'm not down with demonizing this cop yet.  Not much is actually known.  Mobs are lousy either way, KKK or LA Riots, let's not join this one just yet.
