All eyes are on Ferguson, Missouri……..the daily news is not too good…….protestors are being bold and SWAT is being vicious…… since the shooting death of Mike Brown the police in Ferguson have been tight lipped about the series of events that lead to the death of the young man……the collective known as Anonymous have released the police communications call which so far the city has not wanted to release….
So if you are asking how this situation came to this….then you may want to read this…….
(Newser) – St. Louis County police haven’t released audio regarding the shooting of black teenager Michael Brown, but the hacker collective Anonymous took care of that today, reports Mashable. The lengthy file released on YouTube shows the progression of events after an officer shot the unarmed teen in the suburb of Ferguson. As Mother Jones notes, the first hint of trouble comes more than nine minutes into the recording, with the dispatcher making a request for crowd control. But the circumstances were still unclear as to why at that point. Some excerpts, with the bold referring to the time of the audio recording:
- 9:35: “Ferguson is asking for assistance with crowd control …”
- 10:58: “Now they have a large group gathering there, she doesn’t know any further …”
- 11:20: “We just got another call stating it was an officer-involved shooting. … Be advised, this information came from the news ,,,
- 21:55: “They are requesting more cars. Do you want me to send more of your cars?”
- 43:55: “Attention all cars, be advised that in reference to the call 2947 Canfield Drive, we are switching over to the riot channel at this time …”
Police say they are aware of the audio and are investigating how it became public. Anonymous is also trying to identify the officer involved, reports the New York Daily News. Ferguson’s police chief has balked at doing that so far because the six-year veteran has gotten death threats. (The FBI has launched an investigation into the shooting.)
In case you are interested there is a Livestream of the protests in Ferguson, Missouri………

I have one question…..why do cops need camo?
Another question that -I- have is why so secretive about the identity of the shooter?
IF he (or she) received death-threats then that is not good, or right, BUT the police no doubt can protect their own men and women against death-threats I am sure (safe-houses for snitches, safe-houses for corrupt brass etc. etc.)
Personally I don’t like authorities being secretive about something that involves the People and activities by the authorities…… has a smell of wrong-doing around it………
Why has the FAA imposed a 3000-foot no-fly zone over Ferguson,Mo? A no-fly zone that reportedly includes media aircraft. Is it possible that somebody doesn’t want the public to see what is going on at ground level in that civil unrest? If that is the case, then the question becomes, “And why don’t they want the public to see?” What are they planning to do?
All great questions……you know looking at pics from the protests it could well be Ukraine and not the USA…..snipers, armored vehicles, no fly zone, no assembly after dark, and tactics that Gestapo would approve……this is not going to end well I fear….
Is it the dawning of Third World America by any chance?
John, Mississippi already is a third world country…so the process has begun and the South will not look like something American if things do not change….
It’s interesting how the convenience store’s spy-cam footage was conveniently leaked to besmirch the victim’s image, no doubt the result of police “influence”.
I remember back when people who used to warn about America becoming a Police State were laughed at by virtually everyone, even most activists. With domestic spying, domestic drones, paramilitary policing, police propaganda departments, police intelligence departments and the freedom for cops to beat & kill at will…. I don’t hear much laughter anymore.
I was one of those “hippies’ back in the 70’s that was bitching about it….it is sad that I was right…..
