Friday saw one of the smaller #BlackLivesMatter “die-ins” in downtown St. Louis, with only about 50 people gathered, but it did have a delightful Christmas theme and at least one dead Santa Claus and an elf wearing a Guy Fawkes mask.

@eyokley @EdnaFinland @kodacohen Fantastic. It's not a year to celebrate when so many are treated unjustly and murdered in our streets.

When Santa Claus and riot police intersect, well yes there will be pictures. #Ferguson http://t.co/FMmdrly3IE

We’ll go ahead and call this a “Christmas-themed” protest, since that paper mache pig in the wagon covered with the names of alleged “killer cops” as uncovered by Anonymous is definitely not kosher.

Look who’s been naughty this year; a police officer wearing two name tags, including a [Darren] Wilson tag on his arm.
