Was that a protective line in front of the cops some of the protesters just did? That was kind of awesome. Admirable, really

Something to that effect I believe. It seem ssome of the members of the community are taking control to keep things calm and show it's not them, but a small group that is doing the violence.

If you want to learn more about effects of less lethal weapons Click me
Warning: There are some graphic pictures.

This German reporter was grazed by a rubber bullet last night. It ripped through his jeans so this is what a "graze" looks like. It's worth a translation. This story was run in both this and the German rag, Bild.de, which is the most popular paper in Germany.

You mean the conservativetreehouse reporting of an unknown source, of course VERY reliable, that something might happen?
Would wait it out for something more concrete

Not saying by any stretch that it is truth. Thing is, the truth isn't going to matter if this message spreads in Ferguson.

I just don't get how a water bottle being thrown can lead to all of this.
I get that the police don't have to stand for water bottles being thrown at them and that they won't and people NEED to understand that, just seems crazy to me that a whole night of peace is ruined by a couple water bottles

I view it as being similiar to the little kid or teenager testing their parents...they do something, if nothing is said or done, they go a little further and so on, pushing the envelope more and more.

That's why i call less lethal projectiles "nasty"
and also why they call them less lethal.

Sounded a lot like Gunshots to me

The Alex Jones crew found some rubber bullets after those shots were fired.

All the live feeds seem to be having issues with audio or video....I can't get I Am Mike Brown.

John Titor mentioned this, armed maneuver and combat, non lethal weapons, security over freedom...

Sorry couldn't resist

It won't matter because that report is based on what Johnson is stating...not what forensic evidence of the autopsy or a thourough review of the various witnesses and video portrays. I think the community would be more accepting of a transparent and full investigation that cleared Wilson, but for sure not "Wilson is cleared" because Johnson said Mike went for his gun.

lol Tim said he was changing the battery and i just saw them all walking around on RT's feed

Ugh did tim pool really need to go down right now?!?
All i caught was that they needed to switch cameras?

It's just so crazy.
It does sound like it was non media that got hooked in the zone

"All media move to the command post. please do it now"
