I can tell by watching the pre-announcement footage from CNN of the scene live, that this is going to not end well. The body language of the "protesters" is just not a good indication.
The crowd is aggressive already, the showing off with the cars, etc. They're ready to wild out. These are the kind of guys that don't care what the announcement is, they came to burn shit and cause mayhem.
Protesters don't run around hyped up like linebackers in the NFL during pregame.
The mood is all fucked up. At the end of the day, even if the shooting is/was self defense and justified use of force, they're going to accuse the cop of murder for life. If they indict him (which I think is HIGHLY unlikely based on the physical evidence), they will still tear shit up.
I guess "Justice is Blind", because the citizens are too. I think I won't go to LA today. Gonna stay up here where it's safe.
Sad.
