From the LA Times.
t. Louis County police officer has reportedly shot and critically wounded a man who police say pointed a handgun at the officer early Wednesday in Ferguson, Mo., where the fatal shooting of an unarmed young black man by an officer has triggered demonstrations, street clashes and looting.
The other thing that's notable about the article is this paragraph:
Throughout Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning, scores of demonstrators faced off with riot police in Ferguson, with some protesters leaving peacefully and others being forced away by tear gas.
Because if you wait until you're attacked to leave you aren't leaving peacefully.
You can Donate to support people who have been arrested during the anti-police demonstrations in Ferguson. I'm sure they can use all the help they can get out there.
8:08 AM PT: There was also a police shooting in LA discussed in a different diary. So now we've got one dead in Ferguson, one dead in LA, and one person in critical condition in Ferguson.
Let's hope it stops there.
