The photos and information coming out of Ferguson, MO this evening are shocking.
SWAT teams clearing out fast food restaurants, journalists arrested, full-scale police-as-military response to non-violent protest.
And yet perhaps the most amazing thing is that there seem not to be any elected officials willing to tell this police force to stand down.
There have been elected officials protesting with the people of Ferguson and have been gassed and abused alongside those they represent. However, there must come a point for the governor and/or the DOJ to step in. This must be the end game for police militarization.
