I see the set fires and all, but it sure seems to me that the PTB were poking sticks in the eyes of

the people of Ferguson.

Setting fires, even under these circumstances, is just plain wrong and the people that set them should be prosecuted. Period. No other course of action.

But man, could the authorities have been such complete fuck ups to think the weeks long military buildup would be met with good will???

And now people who had nothing to do with recent events have sit and watch their property destroyed. The perps will get the maximum punishment. The cops get to use their military toys.

What a fucking mess.

This is what happens when the very government pokes sticks in the eyes of its citizens.

The Anon Message on Twitter a few minutes ago.

This is deja vu for those of us who remember the massive L.A. riots.
