Those that ill let you just a second. Ill let you yell at me next. If we if we want one question at a time, please. All right, bro. If we want justice, we cannot be distracted. We must be focused on making sure that people are allowed their First Amendment rights but we do so in a peaceful fashion. We cannot have looting and crimes at night. We cant have people fearful we cant have Police Officers killing people the question is, how do you plan to enforce the curfew . Rubber bullets do you want to go . Governor, last night please hold your questions. I understand. Governor, last night theres another question on the floor that i have if wait a minute, wait a minute. You wait. With their own firearms. Will we have police guarding our homes and businesses . First here and then there. Go ahead. Im going to talk to the gentleman here that asked the question first. And im going to tell you that what were doing now is not who we are. Oit not who we are. Yelling at each other is not going to solve that. Were all talking about the same concerns and the same passion. The frustration thats in your home is in my home. Its in my home. And ive given you all the answers that i know, and im going to continue to give you that. I dont care who you are, how old you are, and i dont care if you were Peaceful Protesters last night or a rioter rioting, youll still get the same answers. Tonight we will enforce it with curfew. We wont enforce it with trucks and tear gas. Well communal kate and tell you, do you know what, its time to go home. Its time to go home. You havent seen a heavyhanded approach. Last night things were different that precipitated that, somebody standing in the street, there wont be an armored truck come out. You saw people sitting in the street and they had a chance to get up. And thats the way it will continue. Captain johnson. Here. Why are the Police Killing our children . Start there well answer one question at a time. Were you not aware even though you were in command, were you aware that s. W. A. T teams were being deployed . Did you know about it . Yes, i did. Did you give that order . You ordered the tear gas . No. Can i answer your question . Did you order it . Can i answer your question . Let him answer the question. There are reports that this happened without you knowing it. Thats what im asking. Let me answer the question. Okay. All right. Last night we had several officers that were trapped in a parking lot. They tried to get out. We sent an Armored Vehicle to help them out. We sent two Armored Vehicles to help them out. We had three officers injured. One officer deployed one can of tear gas. He was there. He made that decision. I got a call on the phone and i said im back en route. I got back out of my bed and i went on route and i said make sure we are not going to use any force thats not necessary, and it was one can that got out. The officers got out. I removed those officers out. And the next thing that you saw was a group of officers standing on the roadway and, yes, that happened. And why wont they release a picture of the officer that killed Michael Brown . Maam, that is not a part of my investigation, listen, and we cannot answer that. We cannot answer that. Because thats listen, listen would you be willing to work with the groundskeepers so we can communicate with you that the ones who intend to keep peace are there and the ones who dont are gone . We had a person to make contact and can we have direct contact with someone so we can say all yes, you can. Ive seen you out on the street. And ive seen you out with those gentlemen, with the red bandanas on their face and i walked up to you and i talked to them. Some were angry, but i listened. I didnt walk away. Ive talked to you every night and ive talked to them every night. And i will continue to do that. We will be in this together. Will you provide for our leader, a twoway radio so we can say all the peacekeepers are out before any additional action is taken . Were not using a twoway radio but i can tell you when im on the ground, you can talk with me, you can talk with me. You can be seen with me. After everyone is not gone, how do we find you to let you know that all those who intend to keep peace are gone and those who dont intend to keep peace are saying . Asleep in bed. Not asleep until we get justice. Well talk. Well talk. On the street until we get justice for mike brown. Okay. The gentleman we got a question im going to get youre next. Youre next. Youre next. Stick with the question. Youre next. Were next. Lets answer this question first. One more second. This is very important. Answer the question. Answer the question. Hold it. Hold it. Hold it. Why arent you answering my question . Can we Work Together . Ill get with you tonight. People in this room have a lot of questions right now and a lot of residents are asking questions directly. Were going to see if we can talk with the captain along with the governor after this News Conference when things calm down in this room. Thanks to you and my organizers along with the new black Panther Party and the nation of islam [ inaudible ] and we control the flow of traffic. And i personally set down the avenue at 2 00 and [ inaudible ] on thursday night. On thursday night. Okay, so, so you were there. You witnessed that. And so what im saying is tonight the curfew is 12 00 midnight seemed to be a tight curfew heline that could be a prescription for confrontation. And i dont know anything thats easy about asking people to leave at that time as you may believe it to be, so what im saying is right now well organize that we have at least 100, 150 men working with the various organizations i just named and the National Action network to make sure that this doesnt deteriorate into a situation where everybodys tear gassed, demonstrators look bad and it turns that way. Is there any way that the curfew could be pushed back some and that there are some this is some dialogue here or some rules of engagement . Because i dont believe that the police can enforce the curfew without a confrontation. But i do know that the forces that are under our command can bring this to a conclusion. Is there any way we can get our message out and also able to bring this to a decent conclusion . Can i okay. Okay. Okay. Specific question is my specific question is, can the time be extended some . Grace. Can the burden to end the demonstration tonight, can that be on us so that we dont have what happened last night. Because it was falsely reported on friday morning that it just ended by magic. It did not end by magic on thursday night it ended because we ended it and we have the rapport with the demonstrators. They respect us. And we can talk to them and get them to leave. Every time the police show up, they converge and [ inaudible ] can i let me we will talk. I will talk with you. I will talk with you. Im going to answer im trying. Im trying. Can i answer your question . Yes, sir. First of all, i want to say that those groups that he talked about that helped us on thursday night, hes absolutely correct and when i met with the governor that next day, i said i do not know the name of those groups, and i said, but they were gentlemen in black pants and black shirts and i said they got out there and they did their job. And i told that to the governor, and ill tell that to the nation. Those groups helped and theyre a part of this. And the curfew is going to stand but i ask that you still help us and get it out. We have citizens that live in homes, elderly citizens that live in homes with kids and kids are going to school that said weve got to have our rest. We got to have our rest. Were angry. I may not be able to get out of my home and protest and i dont want to stop that, and what theyre thanking me for is were allowing them to voice their opinion. And i walked up today, there was a Motorcycle Group out here who said you tell us what time. You tell us what time. Ask that you help us. And im going to tell you that we cant do it. We cant do it. There was a gentleman in the crowd, saying captain johnson, great job. Boy, you turned this around. You had the crowd gone. He said, well, captain johnson, you go ahead and do it he said because we were out there. And i said youre right, captain johnson did not do it. You did it. And it was some of the young men that was helping you. And i appreciate it. Governor, governor, governor we couldnt call 911. We couldnt call star 55. Nobody was able to respond from 3 00 a. M. To 5 00 a. M. When the citizens that youre asking to help you, we called 911, we called the county, we called the local police and everybody was pushing the buck. Its, like, were chasing our tail. Youre asking us to help but we dont know how to help. Can i answer that . And thats why were going to clear those streets because we did have citizens who called and we were unable to get to them. Were going to clear the streets so we can handle the cases. As a matter of fact, were in the back room talking about 911 and people are calling 911 and not getting their calls and we talked about that. The representative talked about where should they call . And i said you have them call 911 and youll see a state patrol car or a county police car get there and thats why we have to clear those streets. I know youre trying but people get sick at 1 00 in the morning, people get sick at 2 00 in the morning and were going to do that and do that. Lets work and get this part done and see what gains we can make. And i can tell you this this this morning this morning we talk about investigation. You talking about the governor listen, listen, can you get somebody else to investigate . Hes been all the way to the white house and you saw 40 fbi agents out there today. Theyre coming by. Theyre giving cards thats what theyre doing. They were there today. They sent these cards. I brought these cards. I asked the agent, i want you to give me a card so everybody can know they exist. Why hasnt Darren Wilson been indicted . Answer the question why dont you start an investigation . How long will stop killing our people, police stop it now if i could please will you allow observance to be on the street to make sure that to make sure that there are no abuses after the curfew . Will the media be allowed out to report after curfew . Will you allow legal observers, will you allow media on the streets to report after curfew . Police attacked us last night. Police attacked women and children last night. They attacked them. We kept them from attacking them. They attacked them. There was a bunch of fire. This is not working. Place are attacking. The question is, governor, will the media be out in the streets. You already know that. They attacked us. The Police Attacked us, the group. Governor nixon, how long will the curfew last . Answer that question, please. Excuse me, can you explain to me why let me answer this one first. Focus on controlling the anger of the people when the whole reason the people are in the treats f s the treats ftreets now for a we is people are demanding justice and there has been no arrest. There has been no indictment and people know that this poor child, this 18yearold young man, was killed in cold blood assassinated. And there has been no arrest and people are demanding justice and thats why people are in the street and now this whole press conference has been turned into an explanation of why you are controlling peoples anger, suppressing peoples anger and telling people to calm down. Why is that . Yeah yeah. Question over here. Our hope is that that well get Situational Awareness tomorrow morning. Our hope is that with the help of all that tonight will be more peaceful night than last night while allowing the appropriate emotions and energies and allowing folks to speak out. Whats stopping you from indicting . The second question. Let him answer the question, please. The second question and then ill i have a question. Just let him anxioswer the ft one. Yes, sir. Our full hope and expectation is that, you know speak with your chest, bro. Let him talk. You cant interrupt while hes trying to answer. I cant hear him. Clearly media has a role in helping here. And clearly answer about the length. Well get Situational Awareness tomorrow morning and well make a decision. Were going to watch this one day at a time. This is this is not normal. And our hope was that we return back to a peaceful normal. But killing our children is normal at the hands of the Police Governor nixon, thats not can somebody answer that question, please . Im going to call on representative pierson. What about the media . Listen, listen answer the question. No, excuse me. Excuse me, if you would. Excuse me. Why cant these officers be in front of all these entrances and instead of putting the curfew on these people put officers in front of us. Thats not going to work. Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. That is not going to work. Slide to the right. Slide to the right. We got to get a legitimate answer to the question. No, no, hush. Let me tell you this. Go ahead. Go ahead. Let me explain. Quickly. Putting Police Officers in front of those businesses listen, just listen. Put officers in front of the buildings where all of the demonstrators are, the demonstrators are going to converge on the officers. The officers are going to take a posture against the demonstrators and then were going to have a big row. The issue is we can control the security situation ourselves. Im going to ask for an extension of the curfew, but within the zone we have enough manpower to let our people get their message out and you said the time is too tight. Let me suggest to captain johnson yes, sir. Let me suggest to captain johnson that he work with you that he work with you on some leeway and some time, you know, but let me let me make a point, too. Yes, sir. Ive heard a lot of concern about prosecution. And let me clear up some facts for you. We cant hear you. Can you hear me now . Let me clear up some facts about prosecution of this case. First of all, on monday i asked attorney general eric holder to take over the entire case and to prosecute it as a civil rights violation. And i will continue to pursue that. But i think for some in this room your anger is misdirected. On a state charge of murder, the county prosecutor files the charges. Now, so if you lets go to i agree with you. I am willing to go. I agree with you. I agree with you. But he hasnt filed the charges and its very wait a minute. Its very peculiar that the victim id rather we get i would rather that we get to all the facts. Let the process go forward and let the feds prosecute. Because youre not going to get a fair trial in st. Louis county with the with this scenario. White lies real quickly. No justice i want to one thing for the press. One thing for the press. One thing for the press. One thing for the press. Please. Captain johnson will define a media staging area that you can get to that will allow you then to have access to the zone tonight to make sure that transparency is carried out during this process. He will have a staging area that will then allow folks to get in. We want to make sure as were doing this that theres transparency during the entirety of the process. I can guarantee you that captain johnson will make that staging area available and make sure that members of the press have access to openly and fairly record, openly and fairly see and openly and fairly show the country, the world, whoever, whats going on. Thank you all very much. What about justice for Michael Brown . Dont shoot. Dont shoot. Dont shoot. All right, you have just been listening to a lengthy press conference there.
