A public street gathering at 9 PM? Indeed, they should traverse such things as quickly as possible in their SUV to get little Bobby from tennis camp to boy scouts.

A city that was to live by night after the wilderness had passed. A city that was to forge out of steel and blood-red neon its own peculiar wilderness.

Dexo posted:

That would be great, but as last night showed he doesn't have the power to do so, If he was in charge then that would be great.


As it stands it seems as though he is nothing more than a spokesperson to ease public relations(Lord knows you don't want the Governor or the chief speaking anymore than they have to), who has no power to actually put into place plans of action. In short, if the other shoe drops, he's going to be a hell of a fall guy.

I hope I'm wrong, but this probably doesn't end well for Capt. Ron Johnson.

http://www.ksdk.com/videos/news/local/2013/11/12/3144211/ is the only one I can see that shows action. Police are advancing, firing tear gas as they go.

Police say they are attacking because the protesters may have been moving towards Police HQ.

What in the gently caress is a "command center" and how the gently caress does a protest "overrun" it? Like, what happens if a peaceful protest reaches a police gathering area? They... walk around them?

The language of war being employed by people covering this is really disconcerting.

How the gently caress do the cops expect anyone to understand their orders when they're yelling them through gas masks and have the LRAD blaring at whoever they're trying to talk to?

Or is this like kettleing where they make their orders impossible on purpose?

Police are saying to clear the area. VICE says they can see a fire in a dumpster.

I suspect fire was caused by grenades going off.

LRAD is off....and it just started again.
