Or that the 24 hour news cycle needs something to talk about. One comment I heard on the radio was that given the amount of coverage that [the media] had in Ferguson, if something didn't happen they would be really disappointed. Expectations lead to results.

If the Media had been covering it as 'An announcement is expected tonight, We expect everything to be calm' Would carnage have happened?

I think it is the case that it's just more visible, it probably has always been happening just as much... and cases like in Ferguson normally would never be heard of outside the local area, if somebody hadn't decided that it was a good opportunity for rioting.

Is that a gut feeling or is there math to prove that? It's certainly become more visible in recent years, but from what I've read in the last year there hasn't been a noticeable increase in police shootings in the last several years (as of the last year report I read).

    Yep, here in Utah the motto is “kill ‘em all, let God sort ‘em out”.
    It is OK though because we are a pretty religious bunch...
    But seriously -
    Cops sure seem to me to be a bit more trigger happy than in times
    past.
    We have one that seems to me to be much worse that Ferguson here
    in Saratoga Springs.
    Kid had a replica sword.  Walking around near a gas station,
    morning, not any people around.
    Someone called it in, kid was looking/acting a bit goofy.
    Cops chased him around and shot him in the back 6 or 7 times.
    No looting and riots.  Just peaceful sad gatherings.

    none will be prosecuted, they all have the ACLU hotline written on
    their arm, there are hundreds of lawyers on site just for this,
    everything is a civil rights issue, even stealing TVs.
    Ive been listening to
    http://www.broadcastify.com/listen/ctid/1573/web really good
    dispatchers, these guys have to be under stress, they keep having
    missing cops, even though you know theyll turn up its got to put a
    pit in your stomach every time.
    Apparently in utah now, getting killed by cops is the number one
    murder according to some headlines, is this true chuck, are your
    cops randomly killing poeple now?
