As the title says there will be yet another press conference tonight in Ferguson about Ferguson.

As of about 1:45 am the infowars crew was made aware that it will be a little over an hour before it begins. I figured I would post it for those who might want to watch it live.

You can watch it here if they will keep the feed up long enough.

ustream.tv...

As of now this stream has over a million viewers.

THE WORLD IS WATCHING

I have heard that a cop has been shot and a citizen was also shot. I can not confirm either of these myself. Consider it hearsay until we get some more information.

ETA - The Alex Jones feed appears to be down now. This one is currently working well for me...

new.livestream.com...

ETA - Yet another link...

fox2now.com...

All of the feeds seem to be coming and going.

Geez... That's certainly not a good thing given the current atmosphere. Even if we ASSume that they are carrying them for their own protection, the cops might well ASSume something very different and this whole damnable cycle will begin again.

On a livestream, so far, I watched a girl get sexually harrassed (or assaulted) and I watched a camera guy get robbed.

If that happens I'd say it's a reverse-false flag.
Get them even more angry, and let them fire the "first shot," and then get people used to the national guard (military) stepping in.

Crazy? Yeah.. But just crazy enough that it might work.

We've been marching slowly to a police state for so long. Right now it's put up or lay down. And if the people of ferguson do lay down.. Well the floodgates have opened.

Unless they show some physical evidence, won't the residents of Ferguson (and ATS, and the world) say that the police are lying and trying to protect themselves? And if they do say that, does it start more rioting?

Hearing one police officer, one man, shot.

Everyone was whining about the police trying to move the press, not REmove them, that night at McDonald's. A mob was on their way, and they were trying to evacuate people to a safer area.

Many press have been assaulted. Good. I hope they don't expect police to protect them, any longer.

Am watching Fox right now, and the reporter was standing there, where shots were fired. The police or Nat Guard responded with tear gas, and the reporter got gassed as he was running from the shooter. Good.

So he walks back towards the crowd, and says, "All the people with a vested interest have gone home, gone ti bed. The rest out here, these are the ones causing the problems."

A guy, rightfully so, walks straight up to him, and reads him the riot act, and behaving in a threatening manner. They turned off the camera lights, cut the sound, and were talking about leaving the scene.

Minutes later, they came back, and the reporter was talking to guy, asking him why he was angry. He explained he was there to try to get people to go home.

Suddenly, the reporter changed his tune, and said there are two groups of people here...


I have zero, no sympathy, for the press out there. Go to a war zone, expect war, and expect that you may be a casualty.

I saw on Twitter that the police were saying that the media tonight "exacerbated" the situation and there would be changes tomorrow because of it.

Should be ... interesting.

The media has largely exacerbated the entire situation.

The first mistake Ferguson made was, not immediately hiring a publicist, and handling all media through that publicist.

Period.

Journalists "accidentally" hit with rubber bullets and tear gas.

I can almost read it now.

Yeah... It's a little more than a little crazy. I wish it were easier to just dump the rioters and looters somewhere else so that these people can try to get back to some form of normalcy. Those doing the rioting and looting did nothing for the residents except give folks more ammunition to feed their stereotypical thoughts.

Indeed. That would be very interesting. If they blocked them out all together the well of conspiracy theories surrounding this will never run dry IMO.

According to Tim Pool that happened to him tonight. He said he was gassed and hit with a rubber bullet on one of his legs. So they surely aren't shy about doing it.

One other "interesting" thing from tonight is the arrest of the Amnesty International people.

I would love to have heard the talk around the water cooler on that one.

"Uhh.. Bob... do you really think we should do this?"

"Yeah! That'll teach them peacenicks!"

"You know that this will be going live across the world, right, Bob?"

"So? GETTEM!"

That happened tonight on Tim Pool's cast.

He was hit in the leg with a rubber bullet, then a few minutes later, there were shots fired from the protestors, and you could hear the bullets whizzing past. So the cops fired more teargas into the crowd, and one of the cans landed basically in Tim's face.

Poor guy was trying to run while choking at the same time and not having a clue where to go.

Craziness.

Agreed.

Those guys with their six-figure salaries let themselves become the victims!

C'mon man.

No one seems to grasp, this is an ongoing investigation. What evidence do you expect them to release?

Releasing information too early may have compromised all those alleged "witness" statements, and people may have adjusted their statements to match information from police.

Instead, the police let them talk, THEN released. As it should have been.

Usually, evidence is only released in discovery, right before a trial, like, a year from now.

Asking anything more can be seen as compromising the trial. Would you want either aide to be able to claim that?

Perhaps people should think more, and be careful what they ask for.

Yeah. Every looter wants their picture on the front page of the New York Post.

Heheh.

And why do you assume everyone taking part in these protests is a looter?

Kind of a narrow minded generalization, don't ya think?

If they are standing mixed in with everyone else, it's the risk they take.

Too bad. They want to be a part of the action? There ya go.

If someone starts shooting, are the police supposedto just stand there, because they might hit the press?

How silly of me.

Wow put words in my mouth, much? Kind of a stupid thing to say, dontcha think?

I simply said, like the looters want their pictures on the front page of the New York Post.

And, from all reports, the press that have been attacked, have been attacked by looters.

Ergo, not all of the people out there are looters, but all of the press that have been attacked, have been attacked by looters.

See how that works?

Now, go google it, like a good ATSer, and let me speak for myself, mkay?
