It looks like it’s time for some more looting and perhaps some arson in Ferguson, Mo., where a makeshift Michael Brown memorial burned earlier today.
Large group of people in the middle of West Florissant.

@AntonioFrench when some sick fuck thinks it's ok to burn a memorial won't start more rage. They are (dead wrong)

No police on scene yet. Young people breaking into Beauty Town. "Burn it down!" one yells.

This has been a fragile peace these last few days. After the fire at the #MikeBrown memorial this morning many feared tonight would be bad.

Serious question about Ferguson. What the hell did Beauty Town do to anyone?
