$20 says they shoot the dude in the car.

They might lol. I guess he trashed a hotel room and has been driving fairly normally even with the cops following. I'm guessing they'll let him run out of gas and take it from there.

I lost. They took him alive.

2:30PST - According to one streamer they have cops coming in from other areas for support. I assume this means they expect escalation.

Its a hot day for them too, low-mid 90's. Heatwaves fairly well known to boost civil unrest rates.

3:30PST - Apparently there was/is a car chase going on in the area, only caught about 30 seconds before the stream changed. Might be unrelated. Car chase was in LA.

There will be riots, looting, burning and many white folks will be attacked and brutally beaten. Possibly a death or two.

You expect that tonight or just in the near future? As I recall Ferguson took 3-4 days before things got really out of control, but this might gain steam faster, its probably a very different culture that far west.

This is now happening all the time with them. Rage and riots before they even know what happened, before they have any of the facts, before they have any information.

They don't even care; just want an excuse to riot.

This is the part where they are building up the anger, stoking it before exploding into a riot. They will simmer like this until sunset, then burn, loot and destroy.

I've been hearing that 70% of the arrests during the Ferguson riot were people from out of state, bussed in for the protests. It seems like the least stable areas are chosen for this kind of protest, and the civil unrest just perpetuates itself after the provocateurs/tourists leave. Seems like some crazy proxy economic warfare to me. I guess now we wait and see what happens.
