    Images & reports out of #Ferguson are frightening. Is this a war zone or a US city? Gov't escalates tensions w/military equipment & tactics.

        @JonathanLanday @repjustinamash But you are correct that as an institution, Congress has been an enabler of this insanity.

        And I doubt @hrprogressive has taken this kind of tone with, say, Hillary Clinton or Elizabeth Warren, neither who have said anything yet
