Isn't inciting violence a crime? This is a far cry from what the family said prior to the announcement:

And we're surprised there are riots? Look she's not the first one to tragically lose her child, unfortunate as it is, there is a certain decorum one keeps at least on camera. Why is she in sunglasses at night, to conceal her identity? She's too angry to cry. I recently saw on the news the mother of this link teenager who was murdered, she was angry, she knew who did it threatened to "take care" of them if the police didn't, but it was a completely different demeanor. Acting belligerent on camera doesn't garner sympathy.

I didn't make the connection last night watching The Ferguson Market & Liquor Store being looted and burned to the ground is where it all started with the strong arm robbery. The owner did not report the robbery for fear of retribution (I think a customer called the police) and I guess ultimately he got it. Is this what the stepfather was alluding to?

Acting belligerent on camera doesn't garner sympathy. when I see people react like this, I think the same thing too. look at the poor parents and families of those beheaded by ISIS. my gosh, the horror of losing your child that way while your child was just innocently going about their business. I have yet to see any of them react so angerly and in such a way that would incite others to be violent or lawless. you encapsulated it perfectly with the word "DECORUM".

Entitlement is an ugly, ugly thing.

I agree. we are all entitled to grieve but i don't think anyone is entitled to throw destructive, non productive tantrums that cause harm and damage that yields no justice or resolution.

I saw a clip on the news with his step father yelling to burn something... so much on the news I wasn't paying that much attention to it. It sure was different than that televised plea for no more violence and demeaning the memory of his son...
It isn't the white cop doing that - he's doing it, and the mom and their friends.

Michael Brown's stepfather is the one yelling to burn things down in the OP's video. Michael Brown's father was the one that asked for no more violence sometime last week. Two different people.
