This is absolutely disturbing. Days after Michael Brown, 18 was shot and killed by a Ferguson, Mo police officer, residents continue to riot and protest. Men, women and children are on the scene with their hands in the air chanting, “don’t shoot!” Monday evening, armed with face masks, police threw tear gas into the crowd of shouters along with the propelling of rubber bullets into what was called a, “war zone.” Officials in the area say that there have been about 15 arrests during this time period, but none were seriously injured. As things slowly begin to simmer down, the FBI announces that they will be investigating potential civil-rights violations of shooting. United States attorney general Eric Holder said that a thorough investigation is “critical for preserving trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve.” Surely, that ship has sailed. The police have yet to release the name of the officer involved in the shooting, but said they will do so Tuesday afternoon. Be on the lookout. Until then, hit the jump for Monday night’s scene.

Take yourself back to the day you first sat down and watched, Do The Right Thing. Remember how the police did Radio Raheem? Remember how the people in the city reacted?

Teen Michael Brown was only a couple days shy of beginning his college education when he went to St. Louis, MO from Ferguson, MO to visit his grandmother only to never return home nor go off to school. Depending on who is reciting the story, you will get multiple scenarios, but one guy seems to make his statement pretty clear after uploading his reaction on YouTube. “Bruh, don’t shoot me. Don’t shoot me,” the witness says that Mike yelled after the police officer pulled a gun on him, but to no avail. The cop shot Mike about eight times. Check out this and more down bottom.
