There are many news headlines going on now but Michael Brown being killed by police near St. Louis tops my list. A community protest became frantic over the senseless slaying of the teenager.  Pray for our country.

Michael Brown was gunned down by police for what seems to be no apparent reason.  Brown was asked to get out of the street and onto the sidewalk.  An argument broke out between Brown the police officer.  When Brown fled after being physically assaulted, the officer shot him.

While the unarmed teenager was on the ground from the gunshot, he held his hands up to comply with the officers.  The officer then shot Brown two more times killing the teen in the street.  News spread fast and the community started protesting.

The protest turned into rioting and chaos.  Government officials are working with the police department in Ferguson to find out what happened and what action to take.
