I'm praying it is. DH is in Ferguson right now for work. I'm hoping he gets out of there before it is released. I hope his work is smart enough to not send them tomorrow if shit gets crazy. NO ONE NEEDS NEW FLOORING THAT BADLY.
I take it you are local? MIL lives in Chesterfield. We are driving into town tomorrow night for the holiday. On our news up here in Michigan it said the National Guard is staying in hotels in Chesterfield. We are concerned we will get into town and our reservations will be cancelled since a state of emergency trumps our reservation. have you heard anything about this on your local news?

Did you call the hotel? I'm sure they can let you know.

I have heard that from my SIL that lives in Chesterfield. The only hotel I heard begins with a D, are you staying there?
I am upset over the hyping of the response. Of the whole, "ZOMG the black folks are going to riot again get out the guns! Bring in the tanks! We might have to declare an emergency!"
Yes, and? If it wasn't for the escalation of the police force IN THE FIRST PLACE the riots wouldn't have been so bad to begin with. This reeks of the authorities over-reacting once again and escalating the situation before it even starts.
You can see a town and country police SUV in the background and it looks like Clayton office buildings. Could be that most OOT media have no clue where they are in STL.

Yeah, I didn't look at context clues, lol. THIS IS WHY THE MEDIA SUCKS, I BELIEVED AN UNTRUTH!

I don't know if anyone ever posted about it but it was frequently retweeted on #ferguson the last few days and mentioned on cnn. I guess it's standard procedure. Anderson cooper confirmed he had met him but acted like it wasn't a big deal. Don Lemon said something similar.
I can hear it now-evidence that MB reached inside the officers car, struggle ensued, justifiable force. There will be no conversation about the militarization of the police forces, the racial disparity on the STL PD-I think most of the country will just wash their hands of the whole thing.
What I'd really like to see is a post-announcement interview with the two guys in that pickup who were interviewed back after the first accident.

Be cautious, yes, but stop building the tension!
Thank you! I feel like the build up about the decision has been going on for a week now. Way to get everyone riled up before the fact.
