Why are there people wailing on my feed about black panthers and kkk coming out in Ferguson? Are people falling for the fake photos or is this something new?
There is no such thing as the official "Black Panthers" anymore. Today there are local versions and the national New Black Panther Party, and they're essentially a hate group. I definitely wish there was a real Black Panther Party, specifically one exercising their 2nd amendment rights openly.
So they're not like NoI who still helps out neighborhoods?

Like the President, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the family of Michael Brown. While his death has understandably caused heartache within the community, it is clear that the scenes playing out in the streets of Ferguson over the last several nights cannot continue.“For one thing, while the vast majority of protests have been peaceful, acts of violence by members of the public cannot be condoned. Looting and willful efforts to antagonize law enforcement officers who are genuinely trying to protect the public do nothing to remember the young man who has died. Such conduct is unacceptable and must be unequivocally condemned.“By the same token, the law enforcement response to these demonstrations must seek to reduce tensions, not heighten them. Those who peacefully gather to express sympathy for the family of Michael Brown must have their rights respected at all times. And journalists must not be harassed or prevented from covering a story that needs to be told.“At a time when we must seek to rebuild trust between law enforcement and the local community, I am deeply concerned that the deployment of military equipment and vehicles sends a conflicting message. At my direction, Department officials have conveyed these concerns to local authorities. Also at my direction, the Department is offering – through our COPS office and Office of Justice Programs – technical assistance to local authorities in order to help conduct crowd control and maintain public safety without relying on unnecessarily extreme displays of force. The local authorities in Missouri have accepted this offer of assistance as of this afternoon.“Department officials from the Community Relations Service are also on the ground in Missouri to help convene law enforcement officials and civic and faith leaders to plot out steps to reduce tensions in the community. The latest such meeting was convened in Ferguson as recently as this morning. Over time, these conversations should consider the role that increased diversity in law enforcement can play in helping to build trust within communities.“All the while, the federal civil rights investigation into the shooting incident itself continues, in parallel with the local investigation into state law violations. Our investigators from the Civil Rights Division and U.S. attorney’s office in Missouri have already conducted interviews with eyewitnesses on the scene at the time of the shooting incident on Saturday. Our review will take time to conduct, but it will be thorough and fair.”Ok, eric.(Image removed from quote.)

“He’s a race man,” says Charles Ogletree, a longtime friend of Holder’s who taught and mentored Obama and his wife, Michelle, as Harvard Law School students in the 1980s. “He’s gone farther and deeper into some issues of race than the White House would like, but I know he has the president’s well-wishes. It’s clear [Obama and Holder] believe in the same things.”Holder himself recently told another African-American friend that he feels part of his job is “to talk about things the president can’t talk about as easily.” Asked to describe Holder’s role, one of his former top aides described him as “Obama’s heat shield.”
Not sure about the New panthers. I've heard bad things, but people always say bad things about the Black Panthers with stupid bullshit.

Georgia Rep. Hank Johnson proposed legislation on Thursday aimed at demilitarizing domestic police forces, amid national criticism of heavily armed cops going after protesters in Ferguson, Mo."Our main streets should be a place for business, families, and relaxation, not tanks and M16s," the Democratic congressman wrote in a "Dear Colleague" letter to members of Congress. "Unfortunately ... our local police are quickly beginning to resemble paramilitary forces."The Stop Militarizing Law Enforcement Act would prevent the transfer of certain military-grade equipment from the Department of Defense to local law enforcement agencies. That includes some automatic weapons, armored vehicles, armored drones, silencers and flash-bang or stun grenades.Johnson boasted endorsements from the Friends Committee on National Legislation, American Civil Liberties Union and Defending Dissent Foundation."Before another small town's police force gets a $700,000 gift from the Defense Department that it can't maintain or manage, it behooves us to reign in the Pentagon's 1033 program and revisit the merits of a militarized America. I hope we can work together on this important issue," he wrote to colleagues.Johnson will formally introduce the bill in September when Congress returns from summer recess, his office told TPM.

Violence is never the answer is one of the dumbest things you can say, and you should feel dumb if you said it.
I can't tell if this is supposed to be a 2 x 0 = 0 thing, or if you're just implying that he has a huge cock.
Is it a fat joke?
Cpt. Johnson of Highway Patrol hugging residents as they pass during march. "I grew up here!" he notes.
Cpt. Johnson WALKED in the march. "We're all in this together...we're not in this for fear, to intimidate."
So we won't see large police presence tonight? *Cpt. Johnson looks around* https://vine.co/v/MYPQa5Zvt2T
Johnson says they are going to provide media staging areas. This is night and day from every other night this week. Night and day #ferguson
"I've assigned all police assigned to this detail to take their gas masks off," - Cpt. Johnson #ferguson
"I'm not afraid to be in this crowd today, that's why I walk up front (in the march)" - Cpt. Johnson "hopefully they'll be some healing"
Johnson: will not tolerating looting, also won't tolerate "citizens not having ability to speak their minds, having...rights violated"
So...when does the police chief resign?

Highway Patrol... is there really no black Police officer in St. Louis to where they have to drag Highway Patrol out to do the PR for them?

If they really wanted to ensure people that the local police aren't going to attempt to shoot them anymore, they'd send a local uniform. It seems like a half-measure to cover the local polices asses by going "see, we have a black uniform dude here, we cool now?"I guess we'll see if it's really effective if there's no riots/violence tonight.
Gingers.
