If you've seen the news at all in the last week, there is no way that you haven't seen all of the stuff going down in Ferguson, MO. My buddies over at www.absoluterights.com recently ran a poll and asked for their readers' opinion on the matter.

Check out the article below and let us know what you think in the comments.

Are the Missouri protesters Common street thugs or justified protestors?

In all the recent outrage surrounding the happenings in Ferguson, MO there has been no resolution, but rather, an escalation due to a mob of looters and thugs disguised as “protesters” on Michael Brown’s behalf. These agitators have swarmed into the chaos clouting the small Missouri town fairly unnoticed as tensions mount and stability weakens. Citizens of Ferguson have been quartered to their homes thanks to a mandatory curfew while these hooligans run rampant in the streets and police officers are chastised for any display of authority.

  • Looters and thugs flock to Ferguson, MO to take advantage of confusion & add to the chaos
  • Police too passive in reaction to violence due to accusations of excessive force with protesters
  • Authorities called for mandatory curfew, which has not been heavily enforced

The looting first took place at the Ferguson Market and Liquor store, which have become pivotal points of the authorities investigation. Police have already been criticized for using excessive force with protesters and seemed hesitant to react to the combative behavior, prompting citizens to take a stand. This lack of force where needed has also fueled the proverbial fire of protesters to speak out even louder against authorities and fight those responsible for recent thefts themselves.
