      XPost: stl.forsale, alt.culture.african.american.issues, soc.retirement       XPost: alt.society.modern-life       From: a-pox@abe-lincoln.com              Negro animals. This is a case of typical black animal behavior       that got one of them killed. Blacks in St Louis, Kansas City,       Chicago and Memphis have an attitude problem requiring       occasional correction. These animals deliberately attempt to       provoke altercations by walking in traffic, moving slowly and       dragging a perfectly good leg behind them in a crosswalk       delaying traffic, driving while sitting in the middle of the       front seat, wearing a hat sideways, pants hanging off their       ankles, etc..              Police arrested 32 people after rioting and looting erupted in       Ferguson, Missouri, late on Sunday and spread to neighboring       towns in protests that turned violent over the killing of a       black teenager by a police officer, officials said on Monday.              Crowds broke the windows of cars and stores, set a building       alight and looted shops following a day of demonstrations over       the death of Michael Brown, an unarmed 18-year-old shot on       Saturday by a Ferguson police officer.              At least two dozen businesses were damaged, St. Louis County       Police spokesman Brian Schellman said on Monday. More than 300       police officers, many in riot gear, tried to control the crowd,       and one officer was struck by a brick while another hurt his       knee while making an arrest, Schellman said.              "The words I heard them use about the scene were 'chaotic," even       'scary,'" Schellman said.              He said the unrest had spread from Ferguson, a largely black St.       Louis suburb, to adjacent communities before ending early Monday.              Supporters of the teen had previously said they planned to       protest again later on Monday outside the Ferguson police       station, but it was unclear if that would still go on, Schellman       said.              The 32 people arrested will face charges that could include       assault, larceny and burglary, Schellman said.              Police said Brown was shot after a struggle over a gun in a       police car. It was not immediately clear why Brown was in the       car. At least one shot was fired during the struggle, and then       the office fired more shots before leaving the car.              The officer, who was not identified, is a six-year veteran and       has been put on administrative leave, St. Louis County Police       Chief Jon Belmar told a news conference late Sunday. The       officer's race has not been disclosed.              Sunday's protests turned violent after dark, according to news       station KMOV-TV, with rioters smashing windows of stores and       restaurants and damaging cars.              KMOV-TV footage showed a QuikTrip convenience store set on fire       after it was looted. A teenage witness told KMOV, "They       destroyed everything."              Mobs rushed out of other stores, including an AutoZone and a       Ross Dress for Less, with armfuls of stolen goods, KMOV-TV and       the St. Louis Post-Dispatch newspaper reported.              Brown's mother told television station KSDK that her son was a       "good child getting ready to go to college" and that he was       visiting his grandmother when the shooting took place.              "He didn't bother nobody," she said. "They told me how many       times my son was shot - eight," she added, and then directed her       comments at police.              "You not God. You not decide you are going to take somebody from       her," she said in an interview with KSDK.              The St. Louis County branch of the civil rights group NAACP has       said it wants the Federal Bureau of Investigation to look into       the killing. The NAACP called a meeting for 6 p.m. (2300 GMT)       Monday to discuss the case, according to a spokesman for       Murchison Tabernacle C.M.E Church, where it will be held.              U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder has instructed the Justice       Department's civil rights division to monitor the case, and the       FBI said it is assisting police in the investigation, CNN       reported.              Civil rights leader the nigger Al Sharpton said in a statement       Sunday that he had spoken with Brown's grandfather and had       agreed to visit St. Louis to help the family.              CONFLICTING ACCOUNTS              Earlier on Sunday, police said the shooting incident was started       by a fight between the victim and an officer in a squad car that       quickly escalated.              Police said Brown physically assaulted the officer from the       Ferguson police, who then fired multiple shots at Brown after he       left the car on Saturday. The officer, who was not identified,       is a six-year veteran and has been put on administrative leave,       St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar told a news conference.              "It is our understanding at this point in the investigation,       that within the police car, there was a struggle over the       officer's weapon," Belmar told reporters as voices from hundreds       of demonstrators shouting outside the building could be heard.              According to Belmar, Brown was walking with a friend in the       middle of the street when an officer attempted to exit his       vehicle, the Los Angeles Times reported. Police said Brown       pushed the officer back into the police car.              Brown then entered the officer’s vehicle and a struggle ensued       over the officer’s weapon, according to police. During the       altercation a shot was fired inside the car.              The officer and Brown then exited the vehicle and at that point       the fatal shooting occurred, Belmar said.              Witnesses have had different accounts.              Dorin Johnson, a friend of the victim, told Fox 2 that he was       walking in the street with Brown when the police squad car       pulled up. The officer said to "Get the eff onto the sidewalk,"       he recounted.              "It was not but a minute from our destination and we would be       off the street," Johnson said.              Johnson said the officer didn't get out of his police car, but       "reach[ed] his arm out the window and grabbed my friend around       the neck."              "I witnessed the police chase after the guy, full force," Piaget       Crenshaw said. "He ran for his life. They shot him and he fell.       He put his arms up to let them know that he was compliant and he       was unarmed and they shot him twice more and he fell to the       ground and died."              A crowd of some 200 people gathered at the site of the shooting       on Saturday, some of them shouting "kill the police" and yelling       profanities, a county police spokesman said.              "Emotions were running very high," Belmar said.              St. Louis County police said Brown was unarmed and they would       turn over investigation findings of what happened in Ferguson,       northwest of St. Louis, to local prosecutors.              http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/chi-missouri-       police-shooting-20140811-story.html                             --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
