When they were shot at-they had their hands raised in the air & were shouting “Press! Press! Press!"

49. Let me ask you something. There was a HUGE military/cop presence in Ferguson last night. As some

reporters stated, they had not seen anything like since they were covering war zones.

IF they were there to protect the innocent, why were they NOT stationed near the businesses? How come they could not protect them? Why were they so busy harassing the PEACEFUL PROTESTERS and the THE PRESS rather than surrounding the business areas?

I saw ordinary residents protecting the businesses THEMSELVES this week, why did THEY have to do that when there were National Guard, Mercs, or what look like those 'private contractors' dressed in military garb with no ID, regular police and the Highway Patrol and all of them together were unable to protect those businesses?

You must not have been watching it live last night. I was and was shocked by what I saw.

Several of the Community Leaders stated that there were 'agents provacteurs' there stirring up trouble. But it seems to me that if I really was there to HELP the community, I would station my 'troops' where I would assume they are most needed.

Didn't see that, saw peaceful protesters and the press being harassed.
