If you listened to the reports you also may have heard that residents stepped in to confront and try to stop the looters. Was it as successful as tear gas maybe not but most residents aren't sitting and looting.
Again who knows if Brown was involved in an earlier robbery but his outright murder was what sparked this, especially if he was unarmed.

Ok , just a question ? Did we ever find out why Brown and the other person were attacking the officer inside his patrol car ?

I haven't seen anything other than eye witness' accounts that the media has played. I don't believe any of the investigating units have made any comment on that. Which is probably the most important question of the whole thing... what happened that led to the actual shooting.

The protests, riots, and police actions are what majority of the story is about at this point.

Great story of the community stepping up to defend storefronts against looters.

And while the alleged robbery may have had no effect on Wilson's behavior in this incident, it may have had an effect on Brown's behavior. Maybe Brown did rob the store, and panicked when confronted by the officer?

Agree with Chico. More dash cam and GoPro type cameras can't come soon enough. The two sides stories are so far apart, at least one side is lying through their ***.

The story of people in the community taking a stand is the only good thing coming out of it so far in my opinion. Not going to lie - when I saw the video of them trying to help protect their community I got the warm and fuzzies for a minute. It briefly restored my faith in humanity just a bit.
