A day of protests and vigils Sunday over the death of Michael Brown, a black teenager who was killed (allegedly shot 8 times) following an altercation with a Ferguson police officer, turned violent overnight with reports of riots and looting… and the violence is continuing today. As the following images suggest, there was a lot more bubbling under the surface of middle America than concern about one young man’s death as Ferguson’s full SWAT team is in force. As one young protester screamed, “the revolution will not be televised.”
A selection of clips…

More looting…
