St. Louis County is going to be wading through an ocean of lawsuits from now until Kingdom come. I know it's small potatoes, in the grand scheme of things, but that thought brings me some comfort anyway.

What name did cnn use. I'll refrain from stating his name here, but anon has more than one twitter feed.

For starters, I'd say it's a double-standard at the very least. Other names of people involved so far have been released (by the cops). If I recall correctly, when this has happened in other cities the name(s) of the police officers have been released usually within the first 18-24 hours.

Yup. Not long after, family members began deleting their accounts. All of it is has been screencapped.

I know. I'm not usually on their team but when those in charge are leaving us out to dry...we've got to take what we can get. See also: Steubenville.

Yup. You know it's hip because it's got two x's in it!

As of last night the police / FBI hadn't even interviewed the man who was walking with Brown when he was shot!

I want you to know that I've read your viewpoint, considered it carefully, and come up with the following conclusion:

I'm British so forgive me if I'm wrong but isn't it your Constitution that you have the right to peaceful assembly and to free speech and a free press? From what I've seen by following the footage (great reporting BTW) is that the police have been violating these amendments and also failing in their supposed duty to…

I dunno, part of me trusts it to be the right name. They hacked into the systems of every city government department and shut them all down. If they can do that, they can hack into the police station's systems and pull personnel files as well as find out who was working that day and when. With only 53 officers total,…

Pretty sure one of the Anon subgroups already doxxed one of the main harassers. Saw it on Twitter yesterday, but I can't remember which account it was from

Rachel Maddow did a very well-detailed article on 14 years of data that shows African-Americans have been targets in Ferguson, including the story of the Chief of Police who was fired for outright instructions for cops to "have a black day." (Whistleblower made that possible). This is one incident that highlights…

Time for the National Guard to step in and play grown-up. These local cops have no cred and need to be disarmed and sent home.

You know, around here we have a section in the paper dedicated specifically to publishing the name and information of people who commit crimes from shoplifting to murder. The names of mass shooters who kill unarmed people in cold blood are shouted from the rooftops with no regard for what their families might go…

Ferguson's population is 70% black. Ferguson's police force is .05% black. I mean, fuck.

[W]hy hold back on the name of the man responsible for all of this unrest? Stories of death threats while police are arresting people like French for "not listening" and reporters like the Washington Post's Wesley Lowery for having a camera in a McDonald's or firing tear gas into people's neighborhoods is not reason…

Is it just me, or has this stuff gotten infinitely worse since the early days of the internet? I was online a lot in high school and college, and I don't remember seeing shit like this going on. It's possible I just wasn't hanging out in the right corners of the internet, but good God, what the hell is wrong with…

Said it on Facebook this morning, saw it a lot in the Gawker comments - time to away with internet anonymity. No censorship, just post whatever you want to post with your first and last name next to it, linked to your Facebook account or email address. If you think it's okay to taunt a grieving 25-year-old with…

Yeah, the rapes will move off campus, probably. But at the same time, colleges aren't parents. If kids are raping other kids, it's because something went wrong with how they were brought up before they go to college. I agree colleges need to have better policies for handling rapes, but they're not responsible for…

Cancelling the event only serves to ignore and distract from the true reasons for sexual violence on campus — inadequate consent education, a lack of accountability, and rape culture. Bacchanal does not create these conditions
