Just curious, have any of you noticed that before the QT location became "ground zero" for everything, that QT has removed all identification of the store? All the signage from the canopy, the store front, and the pumps has been removed? I don't think they are trying to hide anything, but, are they are just trying to distance themselves from the events since they were not directly involved? This is not a derogatory statement about them, just a curiosity thing. Most people in the US would not know QT from any other convenience store.

If it were mine, that's the first thing I would do, too. Would not want my corporate image associated with burned out hulk. They do that same thing on intact buildings they move out of. The signage is usually gone before all the stuff is out of the store. 61st & 145th. 81st and 129th when they moved out of them.

Being a crime scene, I wonder who would allow that sort of tampering?

I think they pretty much have their hands full with more pressing issues. QT doesn't want their name identified with crime, riots, looting etc and made the right pr move.

Removing signage wouldn’t be tampering. They have a right to deal with their property as they see fit after the officials have moved on. It’s no longer a crime scene after the investigators have left.

Why Ferguson Looks So Much Like Iraq
So, where are all the videos of the confrontation?? There were many starting 3 minutes later....no way on this planet that there aren't several. Any time a police car rides into that neighborhood - its a hotbed of crips and bloods, all along that main street - the cameras come out and filming starts! It is becoming more and more suspicious that these are not forthcoming. We see from the convenience store video that he is at least a criminal in training.... Why no videos of the event??

Well, the 'crips' and 'bloods'....er, uh..."protestors"....are out again tonight after curfew.
The real, law abiding protestors have been obeying the law and leaving at curfew - it's the gangs that are left at night - watch for the red and dark blue t-shirts...I have spotted quite a few on the CNN news feed - more red obvious than blue. Jesse Jackson just said it's not the people of Ferguson....it's outsiders. Yeah, there are a lot of outsiders - plus the local gangs.

More of it is coming out. Apparently there was video after the event that was posted to social media by onlookers. http://www.ijreview.com/2014/08/168698-eyewitness-recalls-important-detail-background-video-mins-ferguson-shooting/It inadvertently adds confirmation to the officer's account. I would assume there would be quite a bit more "crowd video coverage" emerging. Prelim autopsy info coming out too that corroborates the officer's story, and discounts the account that he was "shot in the back as he was fleeing with his hands up". http://mobile.nytimes.com/2014/08/18/us/michael-brown-autopsy-shows-he-was-shot-at-least-6-times.html?_r=2&referrer=Again. . .none of this will matter.
