This kid’s got a pretty good shot at being the next Al Sharpton; of course, he hasn’t gotten anyone killed yet. So that’s kind of a deal breaker, I guess.
Joshua Williams has been everywhere: protesting in Ferguson, Mo., Washington, D.C., and Cleveland, Ohio. Now, he is in St. Louis, where police have arrested him for arson.
…Williams has been portrayed in the media as an innocent victim fighting back against authority; he has been held up as the quintessential Ferguson protestor, decrying police brutality as he is time and again brutalized by police. When Williams interrupted a Ferguson City Council meeting in September and the meeting descended into chaos, for example, the New York Times published a photo of his disruptive antics with a caption that said that he had only “posed a question to the City Council.”
…
On the night after Christmas, St. Louis County Police arrested Williams on suspicion of arson in a separate incident. Williams was reportedly involved in the looting and burning of a QuikTrip convenience store on Christmas Eve in Berkeley, Mo., a St. Louis suburb approximately two miles away from Ferguson.
To the Progressive Left, acts of political violence are resume enhancers. Just ask Che Guevara, Professor Bill Ayers, Mumia Abu Jamal, and Kathy Boudin. Joshua Williams has a promising future as an MSDNC host, a tenured professor at a liberal university, or maybe even leverage his Community Organizer experience into a political career.
Track the money these people are being paid back so Soros.

Its probably a good thing O-hole has the military too weak to do what Clinton did to indigenous Serbs trying to kick illegal alien drug dealing muslims out of their country.

Typical criminal and violent borderline confrontational behavior of sociopathic 2-3%ers………….
For those of you who don’t have QuikTrip stores, they’re a chain of well run convenience stores that have reasonable prices and excellent staff (QT has made the national Top-100 employer list, along with Google and Southwest, several times). QT also tends to locate their stores in areas not likely to be a danger to staff and property.
These people will target QT until they leave (the destroyed Ferguson store will not be rebuilt) and then, when they’re left with the seedy, over-priced stores where everything is behind bullet-proof glass – they’ll bitch about not having decent stores. Idiots.
KCRob — given the organized nature of retail crime and counterfeit merchandise, I wonder if someone doesn’t see this as a way to open new markets for fencing stolen goods and cheap counterfeits.
