Outraged

What's going on In Ferguson Is outraged.As someone who lived In St louis county for most of my life till 2006 this hits me close even
though I am white.It's shame Missouri and st Louis gets national attention for this.What happened to Michael Brown was upsetting
enough but all the police actions against protesters and press are almost as bad as murder of unarmed 18 year old youth.And yeah as
far as I am concerned it Is murder.And just imagine what can happen now that majority of voters approved carrying weapons.

about carrying weapons. That is something I've been worried about. I hope MO does not have a Stand Your Ground law.

... the owners where out front with their weapons on display weren't looted, which seems a good example of cause and effect. As crazy as people got, it would seem that everyone thought it prudent to rob from and destroy somebody else's hard-earned property. Hard to argue with that. Just sayin'.
