You'd have more success at teaching a pig to sing than instilling logic in these people.
The mother standing on the roof of a car functioned as a beacon...a lightning rod for all the thugs to trash the city. They just awaited the green light from the family. She knew exactly what she was doing by standing on the roof so everyone could see her. They played up to the crowd and incited everyone to act out.
But what I find almost as insidious is the media attempting to cover up and candy coat her behavior, not reporting it until raw footage was leaked. But sadly, that's nothing new.
IMO - a portion of the blame for the trashing of Ferguson last night is on her shoulders. She made the rallying cry and got the ball rolling.
