I mean I know it's not legal and it's been going on in poor areas forever, but it's on video and all over the internet. Why isn't there a federal response? Why isn't the Governor of MO doing something? It's obvious the police are provoking this.

There is a Federal response. Executive-branch agencies are applying pressure on St. Louis institutions. Nixon has been doing something: he's been pressuring County to get this poo poo taken care of before he has to do something. County's running the show tonight, and they're too incompetent to know that, "I don't give a poo poo how, make it disappear" means "You loving idiots, I'm trying to run for national office and so motherfucking help you god if you gently caress that up."

There's gonna be a ton of negative press over this, this is too well-recorded and insane and big to go unnoticed. Whether anything's done about it in the long run is a different story entirely. Probably nothing, knowing the US' history with this stuff

Fascists are already talking about how they had to do it because a bottle was thrown.

In that context, yes. Strength is getting the results you want without taking any of the blame. For the other posts? Governor J. Nixon, of no relation, who has only recently come to terms that he won't be able to run for President in 2016.

I don't think you need tinfoil for that one, they called for media to leave and the cameras to be turned off before they launched a cloud of teargas at the protesters.

That cop had such a huge "justice" boner from trying to empty out a McDonalds that he arrested a reporter? Also, what the gently caress was up with that uniform? I wouldn't have been able to tell that was a police officer and not a soldier if it wasn't for the POLICE on his uniform.

Sadly this is very common now. And a lot of times the 'police' part is deliberately obscured or just not there at all.
