Notice that they position the unarmed grunts closer to the cameras while the armed ones are way in the back.

I think the Police and NG are working in concert to take down certain news photographers before moving in. They don't want people seeing whatever they have planned.

If it lived in Ferguson I'd prop a web cam in my front window (provided they don't cut off electricity.)

Missouri is a nasty place when it comes to race, the 1st amendment and media.
