They made it look like 1000's of residents were destroying their own city, they were not, the residents were all barricaded in their homes while young outsiders were torching and looting.. I saw the BLM group form up close and personal and immediately knew it was here to stay because just like the Vietnam protests and the Weather Underground revolution young impressionable people need a "cause".. I work in and around Ferguson among other similar areas still today and I can tell you that I know 1st hand no less than 98% of these residents LOVE the Police and do NOT want them defunded by even one penny and they actually want MORE police in their neighborhoods not less most also do NOT support BLM in any way shape or form.. These wonderful people really just want to be left alone to raise their children in a safe drug free, gang free neighborhood away from the news camera's but sadly our Media won't show these great people, they just want to show the guns and knives and fires along with the very small group of anarchists that use them..That's the "Truth"..

Thank you for sharing.

Sad when the media does not like the news they see but want to change the narrative to what they would like and the country by and large now believe a false narrative.
