Missouri governor points finger at Ferguson police chief for new violence

[cui bono]

9. Disagree. Once the police stood down and Johnson took over and acted like a community

leader the violence subsided. Sure there were some instances of attempted lootings which the community stopped, perhaps there was some actual looting that took place. But had the police been out there as they had been, in their militarized state, it would have escalated and added fuel to the fire.

The only outcome of releasing that video is that it angered the community who already lost one of their own to a senseless killing by a cop, and now there is now more divide regarding the situation with racists saying he was a criminal and others seeing that it was no more than a ploy to disparage the character of the victim.

Last night got a bit worse again because of the curfew.

Are there people who don't care about anything other than they hate the police and they are just opportunists? Sure. But that's not the bulk of the people out there.
