Thousands March on Times Square Over Ferguson, Held By NYPD

[SexualShark]

[quote]Thousands of people took to the streets of New York City Thursday, in part to show their support for the protesters in Ferguson.

People gathered at Union Square, Bed-Stuy, Queens and Harlem for a social media-led National Moment of Silence in support of victims of police brutality.

The crowd in Union Square chanted the Ferguson slogan "hands up, don't shoot." Protesters held signs showing the photos and names of Michael Brown and Eric Garner. Both men were killed by police officers in the last month.[/quote]

SNIP I'm ignorant, refer to my later post.

Wouldn't it be funny if the NYPD, notorious for bad treatment of black people, handled a protest far better than the police force in Ferguson, MO?

If you're not mad that the police shot a kid for no reason then I'd really have to wonder where your priorities are.

Err, uh.

I don't support the riots in the shape and form they are happening but there's definitely issues there to be mad over.

Please do explain.

EDIT

I finally got it through my brain, they're rallying over the cops reactions(gassing people and causing general havoc), which is absolutely understandable. I dunno why I was so oblivious to this when I posted earlier, but I understand now, and retract my statement.
