44. They're tired

They're angry. Why are the cops out there? Peaceful protest but they're in riot gear.

I don't blame them. People can only take so much before they cracked. Have you seen the statistics for what happens in Ferguson to black people? And Darin Wilson is still on paid vacation.

As long as they stay non violent, I don't care what they say. No justice. No peace.

Gotta say I love the one guy that hasn't moved for a couple hours. Just standing with his hands up not saying a word
