This is exactly what happened in Ferguson Mo. with Mike Brown.

This is in Peoria, Ilinois.

I've spoken with cops who tell me this was what was happening when Officer Darren Wilson shot Mike Brown in Ferguson; people flooded out of the apartments there and began scuffling with the police, who were forced to withdraw. They had to send the coroner's wagon away because the couldn't guarantee it's safety and had to leave Mike Brown's body in the street. The media made a huge deal of that but it was a scene much like this one. If they had tried to take the body they likely would have had to shoot someone else.

We have created our own barbarians in America, and we are allowing them to run wild. In times past the cops would have shown up with billyclubs and that would have been that. But now the police are terrified to use force. That way leads to things like this.
