Now, as someone who actually lives in the Ferguson-Florissant area, I just have to put my opinion up on this matter. I don't have anymore evidence about this whole situation as any of you do and honestly it's terrifying when you drive down the street and see stores that you've been to before smashed in. My opinion isn't driven toward the shooting of Michael Brown, it's toward the 'protests' that are going on night after night. 

I don't care what people say on the news, what you all have heard, but these protests are in no way shape or form peaceful. Half the people are hood rats from downtown St. Louis who are coming up to Ferguson and taking advantage of the situation. Most of them don't really care that Michael Brown was shot, they just want to take part in the chaos. If they really cared that someone was shot, they wouldn't be out stealing shoes, weave, and rims. You know, that same night, two other kids were shot downtown, but no one cares about them at all. They're just all too eager to make this whole situation a racial issue.

If this really was just a protest, then things wouldn't have gotten out of hand like they have. If it was just a protest, I wouldn't be afraid to walk down the street in the middle of day, or drive in certain areas where I live. I say let the cops do what they want. They could easily go about their "protesting" in a different way, and yet they all continue to shoot off guns in the middle of the night, burn down buildings, and scream "Fuck you," to the police. The quicker all of this is over, the better.
