Watch Police In Ferguson Deal With White Pizzeria Owner Who Pulled Gun On Protesters

Posted by | September 26, 2014 20:47 | Filed under: Contributors Opinion Politics Tommy Christopher Top Stories


Tensions in Ferguson, Missouri flared anew Thursday night, as peaceful protesters marching and chanting in protest of the Mike Brown killing were met by a local business owner whom police confirm pulled a gun on the marchers. An Argus News livestreaming camera was there to capture police reaction to an armed white man at a protest for the killing of an unarmed black teenager, just days after cops in Ohio got off for killing a different unarmed black man. Here was the scene outside Faraci’s Pizza moments after the incident:

Multiple police sources confirmed that the man in the video is the owner of the business, and did pull a gun on the protesters.

This march also comes on the heels of reports that Ferguson police officers have been wearing bracelets that say “I am Darren Wilson,” a reference to the officer who shot and killed Mike Brown, and who is currently the subject of a grand jury investigation into the killing. Later in Thursday night’s protest, outside the Ferguson Police Department, one participant had a pretty snappy comeback for that…READ MORE

      Good to know.

    • whatthe46 September 26th, 2014 at 21:06

      good. and if they refuse those orders they need to be FIRED! and fk this “chief” of bastards. all this is his fault.

    • Anomaly 100 September 26th, 2014 at 21:42

      I don’t understand what they were thinking. Wearing those bracelets just creates more division. It’s like they want to be hated.

      • tracey marie September 26th, 2014 at 21:44

        That was the point, to push for an angry response from the crowds so they may kill, maim and arrest…just like when the captain pretended to march with them and allowed his officers to attack and arrest peaceful protesters.

        • Anomaly 100 September 26th, 2014 at 21:53

          Those sorts of plans always backfire. It’s not like the public can’t see the bracelets on their arms.

        I suppose it’s their way of saying “I wont hesitate to shoot you.”

            I grew up in a different time and place, one where you went to the police for protection not one where you had to fear being shot for having something in your hands.

            • Anomaly 100 September 26th, 2014 at 22:14

              Well I’m from New Orleans and the police were always corrupt there.

                I remember reading about some Cops from New Orleans getting arrested for stealing new cars right off of the lot’s during the Katrina storm…

                • Anomaly 100 September 27th, 2014 at 08:37

                  I saw a 60 Minutes show after I moved out of N’awlins. The cops were doing hit jobs, murdering unsuspecting citizens for money.

                  • raincheck September 27th, 2014 at 08:44

                    WOW!… I can’t help but think back on an episode of “Cops” during Mardi Gras Showing the Cops arresting people for showing their “twins”? and talking about maintaining a “high moral standard”… The thieving murderer’s!!

                    • Anomaly 100 September 27th, 2014 at 08:50

                      Years ago, I was the victim of a stalker. It got really, really bad. He even broke into my family’s home several times to steal my friggin’ underwear, leave pervy notes, etc. So, I called the cops knowing that he broke in 3 days in a row so he’d probably do it on the 4th night. The cops came by. I was very nervous because I didn’t know if it was a neighbor, a friend, anyone. The cops just flirted with me, then asked me to the Policeman’s ball. I was livid. There I was afraid for my life and they’re trying to get a date.

                    • raincheck September 27th, 2014 at 09:03

                      Those BASTARD Cops…. stalkers are VERY scary people! Did they ever catch him?

                    • Anomaly 100 September 27th, 2014 at 09:52

                      They didn’t catch him because they never looked. My family members and I thought it was the guy next door. Mostly we arrived at the conclusion because on the 4th night, I sat inside the front door with a shotgun. He never came back. The only person that could have known that I had a weapon and was waiting for him, would be the guy directly next door to us. I could be wrong, though.

    so the moral of the story is if you are black and unarmed, the police shoot you dead most of the time. if you are white and have a gun, you are not shot at cuz cops fear for their lives with unarmed black men, but not so much with armed white men. go figure
