Get to know your neighbors now as it looks like things are about to get ugly.
The latest out of Ferguson, Mo. is that authorities are preparing for major riots if officer Darren Wilson is not indicted for shooting death of Michael Brown:

And it’s not just authorities who are preparing for the worst. Here’s The Guardian’s Jon Swaine reporting from a New York City rally protesting Brown’s death where those in attendance were told that if you’re planning on coming to Ferguson to help protest Brown’s death, “Don’t come to Ferguson if you aren’t ready to die. Stay at home, as it could happen.” Wow:
