Perhaps you were looking at "top" tweets instead of "live" tweets. Top is the default

Probably a glitch from too much activity. These things can and do happen.

If twitter censored #ferguson, they'd get a lot of flak from feminists, so I don't see it plausible. Maybe a glitch?

Assume any centralized system will be censored, voat included now.

Ferguson is #1 on my trending list right now
