New York City protesters in Times Square apparently sprayed fake blood on police officers, including commissioner Bill Bratton, following the St. Louis County grand jury’s decision not to charge Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson in the shooting of Michael Brown, according to reports from the scene via Twitter.

Black lives matter. It would be so great if police across this country started to understand those three words.
This kind of moronic stuff does nothing to save black lives. What it does is piss people off. I hope these vandals are arrested and prosecuted for the maximum penalty. If the fluids used were biological, this is felony assault.
It’s this kind of moronic statement that makes people enraged. Arrest these felons.
