Do you know where it came from? Can't read the patch on the officer's sleeve.

Gotta think this kind of thing happens more than is portrayed and perhaps the streets would be quieter if it was brought to the forefront more often.

It came from a Ferguson protest in Portland.

Hands up, Don't Shop. That's what I heard on the NBC News tonight. I think it dilutes the cause. Just IMO.

Now that picture tells a story how people are afraid. Don't want to say any more so this does not get deleted. But I think most of you know what I am thinking.
