One of the people streaming the violence was complaining about the police setting this all up. He has over 87K viewers until a guy stole his phone and ran off with it while calling him a nigger.

There is not a single part of that post that was in any way constructive, insightful, or helpful, and I say that as someone utterly dismayed by the Grand Jury's decision.

Reports of shots fired, followed by a report of men in a pickup truck driving around in masks. Not sure if it's connected.

I agree. At this point, I'll support most anything the police need to do in order to restore order. I'm honestly a little concerned for my safety right now.

I've been to Missouri. I really liked it. I loved the towns of Joplin and Springfield. And St. Louis was pretty slick, too. The Midwest is just great.


Well, word is that rioting is going to break out in Oakland, but in California, this sort of thing happens all of the time, especially in Oakland.
