DieHardBrownsFan Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hey look, I beat Walter! Two officers shot, seriously injured outside Ferguson police department Published March 12, 2015FoxNews.com Facebook Twitter Email March 11, 2015: Police form a line outside the Ferguson Police Department as people demonstrate nearby. Earlier in the day, the resignation of Ferguson police chief Thomas Jackson was announced in the wake of a Justice Department report prompted by the fatal shooting of an unarmed black 18-year-old by a white police officer. (AP Photo/Jeff Roberson) Two police officers were shot and seriously wounded early Thursday outside the police department in Ferguson, Mo. amid protests that followed the resignation of the town's police chief. St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar told a news conference that a 41-year-old officer from St. Louis County was shot in the shoulder at around midnight local time, while a 32-year-old officer from suburban Webster Groves was shot in the face. Both victims were taken to a local hospital. Belmar said both men were conscious, but had no further word about their condition except to describe the injuries as "very serious." Belmar said that at least three shots were fired and were believed to come from a house across the street from the police department. "I don't know who did the shooting, to be honest with you," Belmar said, adding that he could not provide a description of the suspect or gun. He said his "assumption" was that, based on where the officers were standing and the trajectory of the bullets, "these shots were directed exactly at my officers." The shooting was first reported by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Marciay Pitchford, 20, was among the protesters outside the police department. He told The Associated Press the protest had been mostly peaceful until he heard the shots ring out. "I saw the officer go down and the other police officers drew their guns while other officers dragged the injured officer away," Pitchford said. "All of a sudden everybody started running or dropping to the ground," he said. Belmar said that some officers had begun to leave the area due to the lack of activity prior to the shooting. "I've said many times we cannot sustain this [unrest] without problems and that's not a reflection of those expressing their First Amendment rights," Belmar told the Post-Dispatch. "But this is a very dangerous environment for our officers to work in." KTVI reported that as many as 200 people had gathered to demand more changes in the city's government after the resignation of Police Chief Tom Jackson Wednesday afternoon. The station reported that at least one person had been arrested and that protesters blocked traffic on nearby Florissant Road. Jackson was the sixth Ferguson employee to resign or be fired after a Justice Department report cleared white former officer Darren Wilson of civil rights charges in the shooting of black 18-year-old Michael Brown this past August, but found a profit-driven court system and widespread racial bias in the city police department. Mayor James Knowles III announced Wednesday that the city had reached a mutual separation agreement with Jackson that will pay Jackson one year of his nearly $96,000 annual salary and health coverage. Jackson's resignation becomes effective March 19, at which point Lt. Col. Al Eickhoff will become acting chief while the city searches for a replacement. Jackson oversaw the Ferguson force for nearly five years before the shooting that stirred months of unrest across the St. Louis region and drew global attention to the predominantly black city of 21,000. Jackson had previously resisted calls by protesters and some of Missouri's top elected leaders to step down over his handling of Brown's shooting and the weeks of sometimes-violent protests that followed. He was widely criticized from the outset, both for an aggressive police response to protesters and for his agency's erratic and infrequent releases of key information. In addition to Jackson, Ferguson's court. clerk was fired last week and two police officers resigned. The judge who oversaw the court system also resigned, and the City Council on Tuesday agreed to a separation agreement with the city manager. The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Chicopee John Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Will Obama a Holder address this? "I can understand the feelings of frustration among People of Color. The Police need a better understanding of their communities". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Obamao won't be able to ignore it. Holder and Obamao ignited this entire firestorm, along with the sensation-loving media boosting the "handsupdon'tshoot" complete falsehood... and the police chief just resigned.....and a couple of people who had sent racist emails or whatever are fired..... and the blacks rally, and violence breaks out...... justifying? the attitude against a lot of blacks in the city? And Obamao's INJustice dept will side with the black ralliers, and deny that there is any evidence.... Big serious trouble - that's where our country is headed. We're headed toward racial strife, economic strife, Constitutional conflicts, and this gov thinks any American group that isn't on board with their agenda... are the enemies. And they looooove the Muslim Brotherhood, which even Egypt has BANNED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mohican Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 I think that since the protestors do not seem to want Law Enforcement in Ferguson, Misery then they should be granted their wish. Let the Police withdraw from the region, just like the Roman legion withdrew from certain regionsl and let nature sort things out...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconHound Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 It's a terrible, despicable action and I hope the individual(s) who did this are caught and punished to the full extent of the law. And great job by law enforcement to not escalate this any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Can't post just the video, but if you read down, and play the video, the stupid protestor refuses to let go of the false narrative. It's intentional latching onto victimization, and they don't care about the facts. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2015/03/13/ferguson-protester-hears-facts-from-doj-report-for-first-time-as-hannity-reads-it-to-him-live-on-air/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHardBrownsFan Posted March 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Immigration Islam Common Core Guns Michael Brown’s Mother Just Said Something Horrible About the Two Cops Shot in Ferguson by Top Right News on March 13, 2015 in Crime, Ferguson, Michael Brown, Race 1.1k Share on Facebook Share on Twitter E-mail Reddit by Brian Hayes | Top Right News Michael Brown’s mother for some reason decided it would be a good idea to put her “thoughts” on the news of two cops who were shot in Ferguson this week. And that’s exactly what Leslie McSpadden did in a Facebook post lashing out at police who were doing nothing more than standing on the sidewalk watching a protest, when a cowardly thug shot them and fled into the crowd — in effect pushing her foot into their wounds with her vicious comments. Here’s what she said. “F*** THEM 2 COPS..DON’T GOT NO SYMPATHY FOR THEM OR THEY FAMILIES…Aint no FUN when the Rabbit got the GUN.” “If my FAM woulda got JUSTICE in August maybe those two comps wouldn’t have got shot LAST NIGHT…” Disgusting. And after her lawyer likely called to tell her to take it down, McSpadden did exactly that, taking down first the comments, and then the page itself. Unfortunately for this thug mom, social posts are forever. Although the capture isn’t the best quality, you can clearly see the important bits below: Keepin’ it classy, McSpadden, as always. Yes, of course she is angry over the death of her son. But he didn’t die because of a cop.He is dead because he attacked a cop and tried to take his gun, right after committing a strong-arm robbery. And now that we know the kind of “mom” she was, it really shouldn’t surprise us. Michael Brown was barely “raised” by McSpadden at all. She was absent with different men, while his grandma mainly looked after him. When she was around, what kind of example did she and her husband set for him? We don’t know. But their recent criminal behavior gives a clue. McSpadden herself violently assaulted that grandma in a wild brawl over “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” t-shirt sales last October. And her husband, Louis Head incited rioting and arson that caused a dozen businesses to be burned down last November. Both are facing possible felony charges for these actions. This is the example Michael Brown had at home. And that example is on now display for the world to see. Spewing hatred on social media and causing further pain to the families of the wounded officers isn’t going to bring her son back, nor make others sympathetic to her (misguided) opinions on race relations in America. Instead, it makes her appear to be a vindictive, cruel, mean person who just wants revenge and is willing to take out her rage on innocent people. Perhaps she’ll come to her senses and make a statement apologizing for what she said about these officers. But I am not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
