Not to be forgotten
http://photos.riverfronttimes.com/b...a-leads-seven-arrests/?slide=20&5g1a9712 Protesters briefly shut down the St. Louis Galleria in Richmond Heights during Black Friday holiday shopping. Chants of “no justice, no profits” and “stand up, fight back” rang out a little after 1:30 p.m. after groups of protesters gathered at an upper level above the food court. As protesters marched through the mall, stores began closing; protesters walked into some that hadn't closed and demanded they do so. The mall eventually closed around 2:30 p.m. but reopened after protesters left the property.
'Protesting' at the mall in St Louis seems to happen very often, along with blocking major roads. Scrolling through the pictures the police had their hands full for a while. I'd not disagree with the right to protest but not on private property and 'demanding' a store close is BS. Same with those blocking roads and pounding on cars with signs, a very dangerous activity for the well being of those protesting.
At one time the un-official guess of CCW carriers in the KC metro was 30k+ (number permits issued is not public info) St Louis has a larger population and many surrounding towns have residents commuting daily. Although now no one is required to have CCW to carry concealed, in state.
