Only four? They’re losing their edge.

Via Politico:

On Wednesday night, shortly after the mayor of Ferguson, Missouri, acknowledged the findings of a scathing Justice Department investigation into his city’s policing practices, the Ferguson Police Department arrested four protestors for blocking traffic outside police headquarters.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that two of the arrests were of protestors sitting in the street. A local Democratic committeewoman told the paper that two of those arrested were “legal observers,” though it’s not yet clear if these were the same people.

All four of those arrested are women.

Video footage and photographs shot by journalists at the scene reveal a group of a few dozen protestors peacefully chanting that the Ferguson police department is “racist.”

Eventually a larger group joined hands in the street for a moment of silence honoring the late Michael Brown, an unarmed African-American man who was shot by a Ferguson police officer last August amid disputed circumstances. Protests following last year’s shooting ultimately triggered the Justice Department’s investigation.
