If the Justice Dept. or the local State govt. hasn't done so already, a full investigation of the Ferguson PD and its pattern and practices should be initiated. Something is broken in the community when the police are so mistrusted that no matter what the evidence may or may not show, the police are assumed at all times to be acting in bad faith.
Anarchy - "burn it down" - however, is not the answer and not one that (at least I hope it wouldn't) will resonate with the vast majority of Americans.
