        @WSJ Tragic when genuine protests over a boy shot by policeman (after allegedly stealing cigars) are hijacked by those intent on trouble.

        @SteveKingCC @WSJ The Press is corralled in two areas- how in the world can you determine what violence was initiated by the protestors?

        @weblollipop1 @WSJ I see peaceful protestors not getting gassed. My point has been proven. Police aren't just gassing because they're black

        @SteveKingCC @WSJ People are not getting gassed because then police do not instigate/engage protestors till after midnight That is a pattern

        @weblollipop1 @WSJ convenient excuse and wrong - they started gassing a lot earlier than midnight yesterday.

        @SteveKingCC @WSJ Tear gas canisters were throw behind the main body, cops yelled to disperse then they threw gas in front of the group.

        .@WSJ You're saying #Ferguson police "rooted out" 20 outside agitators? Considering the hundreds of people present. That "fact" is silly.
