Ferguson, Missouri
More shootings in Ferguson, Missouri. Two police officers were shot last night during a protest being held outside of police headquarters in that suburb of St. Louis. It's dreadful. A damning report about the department brought the resignation of the police chief yesterday afternoon. During the protest, two police officers were shot - one in the shoulder, and one in the face. Both are in serious condition at a local hospital. I feel as if I've been pulled into a time vortex and am now living in the past with Jim Crow laws in effect and trigger-happy folks on the prowl. We need to stop this madness in the United States, and around the world.
