How badly do you have to gently caress up to have this go down in a small city like this? Are people coming in from out of town?

The Fox2 feed just ran an interview with the Mayor who genuinely asked that asked that anyone with information would, gosh, just share those videos and information. Then ended with "Well we're being told that news crews are being asked to leave the area. We'll be back with a look at sports." Yah, that's hard hitting journalism.

Ordering reporters to turn off their cameras and then gassing them? Yeah, that is a special kind of incompetence. There is literally nothing more you can do to guarantee national coverage than attack reporters.

Ferguson is a suburb of St. Louis, part of a metropolitan area of about 1 million people, and a city that is directly surrounded, border to border, with several dozen other cities of all similar sizes.

Sounds like their plan is to turtle up and enjoy swinging their giant metal dicks around until the media forgets and the protestors get scared off. Time will tell if modern streaming is robust enough to undermine this cunning gambit.

Cesar Cedeno posted:How badly do you have to gently caress up to have this go down in a small city like this? Are people coming in from out of town? The white folks in Ferguson live in several small and clearly identified housing clusters. These clusters have very restricted access and, more often than not, have either a (white) cop who lives on the block, or are more frequently patrolled than other neighborhoods. Often, residents living in these clusters will tell you how much they feel like they're under seige, and how scared they are for their safety. And why not? They have no connection with their neighbors. They don't live in the same social world as the other residents. They go to separate schools. They drive on different roads. The police are there to protect their interests. The protestors? They live there. They don't feel like the police protect them. And why should they?

Franks Happy Place posted:This is going to be the biggest civil rights suit ever. There's pretty much no recourse through the legal system. You could try to pursue wrongful arrest charges in civil court, if you're actually arrested, but even in that case it's a multi-year process where you'd need a lawyer to like your case enough to front the cost of his time. It would then be an agreement where he'd get up to X amount of your settlement, where X is likely way more than you'd actually end up receiving in damages. Basically you need a fairy godfather who, four years down the road, would walk away with with the payout.
