PROTEST AT THE BALLOT BOX. THOSE THAT WERE GOING TO PROTEST WHEN THE VERDICT WAS ANNOUCED ASK THAT THERE BE LESS MILITARISTIC PRESENCE AT THE SCENE OF THE PROTEST LIKE FERGUSON. IT APPEARS THAT DUMB SH.......POLITICIAN FIRST GOVERNOR DID JUST THAT WITH THE NATIONAL GAURD AND AS A RESULT THERE WERE 25 PLUS BUILDINGS BURNT DOWN. AS SOON AS THOSE IN THE CROWD DECIDED TO ROCK THE POLICE CAR AND THEN TORCH IT THE SITUATION TURNED UGLY. I THINK I MAY HAVE EVEN SEEN A JUVENILE IN THE POLICE CAR INCIDENT, BLUE COAT ON. THESE STARTED OUT AS PEACEFUL PROTESTORS BUT DID NOT REMAIN THIS WAY. MANY WONDER WHY THE POLICE DO WHAT THEY DO IN THESE SITUATIONS AND THE PEACEFUL PEOPLE SWITCHING TO DETRUCTIVE EFFORTS IS ONE OF THE REASONS. NO ONE IS CLEARLY A PEACEFUL PROTESTORS ONCE THEY CHANGE THE METHOD OF PROTEST TO MORE AGGRESSIVE. HOW COULD THE POLICE KNOW IF AND WHEN THAT WAS TO OCCUR. YET MANY WILL CONTINUE TO POINT FINGERS AT THE POLICE AS FAR AS HOW THINGS WENT SIDEWAYS. THE POLICE DID NOT CHOOSE TO CREATE THE SITUATION WITH PROTESTORS. ONCE AGAIN THAT WERE CALLED TO DO A JOB MOST PEOPLE WOULD NEVER WANT TO DO. THEY ASKED FOR THE JOB, PERHAPS THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE MOST CRITICAL SHOULD REALLY SIGN UP AND DO WHAT YOU CAN FROM INSIDE THE SYSTEM. OUTSIDE THE SYSTEM OF POLICING IS NOT WORKING FOR YOU. AT LEAST GO TO PRESENTATIONS LIKE THE ONE IN U CITY BY CAPTAIN JACKSON TO GET THE REST OF THE STORY BEFORE IT COMES TO BE A TRAGEDY. THE ST. LOUIS POLICE OFFICERS ASSOCIATION IS DOING AN EVEN MORE INTENSE TRAINING OFFERRED TO THE ALDERMAN AND OTHERS TO SHOW SOME OF THE COMPLEXITIES INVOLVED IN SERVING THE PUBLIC.
