I don't disagree, but at this point, what else can be done?


At this point I'm in favor of police and NG using all available methods to restore order. But no matter what decision they make, they're going to be criticized.

What exactly do you think a state of Anarchy, temporal or otherwise, implies?

The absence of authority.
Never, never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well-being of a person is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way.
We have nothing to lose but the world. We have our souls to gain.
You!
Me.
Nothing you can possibly do can make God love you any more or any less.

They could either restore order or they could fuck things up like what happened at Kent State University.

Lets hope they keep cool heads and restore order with as few casualties or injuries on either side as possible.

If rioters fire on them, Ferguson will run red.

I think the grand jury's decision was questionable, but the rioters are completely in the wrong. Getting more people killed will not make things right.

That's a fair point. Lets just hope they act sensibly, don't get carried away and restore order with as few casualties and injuries on either side as is possible.
