'Keep race baiting': Sen. Claire McCaskill heartsick peaceful #Ferguson protest disrupted by gunfire

Doug P. | 11:18 AM on August 10, 2015

A demonstration in Ferguson on the anniversary of the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, culminated in gunfire last night:

A day of peaceful vigils to mark the one-year anniversary of Michael Brown’s shooting death turned ugly late Sunday when protesters threw rocks and bottles at officers, and police critically injured a man who they say fired at them.

The unidentified man in his 20s was undergoing surgery early Monday.

He unleashed a “remarkable amount of gunfire” against the officers using a stolen handgun, St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said.

Sen. Claire McCaskill took the “mostly peaceful” angle:

Heartsick that so many marched in peaceful silence that spoke volumes about justice for all,then so few began shooting.#Ferguson

That probably could have been worded better:

@instapundit Doesn't her tweet read like she's heartsick that "so few began shooting"? https://t.co/ddLKoXjMj4

Maybe she’s still too distracted by Game of Thrones to tweet clearly.

@clairecmc @jaketapper Justice for all? Like for the store owners whose property was looted & burned to the ground a year ago?
