Protestors To Sue Ferguson Police

[Peter1469]

I expect that the cases will be quietly settled out of court.

Hold on - if you read the articles it sounds like those in the suit might have some grounds for what they are doing. Such as this (from the Reuters article in the OP):

My point is, since the police are a taxpayer funded organization, the lawsuit hurts the taxpayers not the police. The protestors tore the town down, looted and robbed, and burned businesses. To reward them is a travesty and injurious to the taxpayer. I predict the tax base will move out of that hell hole.

Yes, it's all about the money.

I hope not. I hope they are televised.

Yes, it's going to be the finishing shot for many in the town of ferguson.

Yes, it's going to be the finishing shot for many in the town of ferguson.

It only had 21,000 residents to begin with. I wonder how much taxes will need to be raised to cover the law suit and to repair all the damages? It ain't worth it to stay there would be my best guess.

[momsapplepie]

The Feds are already doling out money.

The St. Louis cop who was suspended for pointing his semi-automatic rifle and threatening protesters in Ferguson, Missouri, has resigned

Lt. Ray Albers, who was put on indefinite leave from the St. Ann Police Department after being caught on a cellphone video that went viral, quit the job he had held since 1994 on Thursday. Albers could not be reached for comment.

The video showed the officer pointing his gun at a demonstrator who apparently had his hands up.

He cursed and appeared to say, "I will ... kill you" before a sergeant made him lower his weapon and walk away.

Albers was among the officers called in from neighboring towns to deal with unrest after a Ferguson police officer shot and killed an unarmed 18-year-old, Michael Brown on Aug. 9.

The video, which contains profanity, has gotten more than half a million hits on YouTube

Well then he should pull that $#@! up over his head, because if he is ever stopped by ISIS, that is what he will look like.

You can't fix stupid, only punish it!

Let them sue themselves. I think the FOIA suit to release Brown's juvenile records is going to be far more interesting, since 2 sources in the PD say he was involved in a 2nd degree murder.

It should be illegal to get those records they should be sealed
