Really the only picture you need to see from Ferguson.

Looting random people is not protesting. Destruction of random property is not protesting. People that do these things are not protestors. Vaguely-defined oppression is not a justification to hurt innocent people. Behaving like an animal will not convince people to not treat you like one. You need to ask more questions about why certain events are national news, and others aren't. You need to ask why the verdict was given on a Monday at night. You need to be more aware of the narrative that's being manufactured.

    In the event of Hurricane Katrina, the National Guard was given orders to shoot any looters on sight.* Why was this not done in Ferguson? Remnants of article here: http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/la_governor_warns_troops_will_/ *NOTE: I was unable to find further evidence that this order was carried out. In the process of searching, I discovered that the Guard allegedly participated in looting along with local police.
