Then asking media to leave so they can control crowds.

It is kind of curious how various police forces are gifted with military grade weaponry, and yet they can't manage to get dash cams. I would imagine dash cams might deter some of the more vigilante style officers from creating problems like this.
And while this is coming to a head in Ferguson right now, make no mistake--this is a nationwide problem. It's all too common now for police to take a shoot now, ask later approach when it comes to black men. Two recent examples:
In Ohio, a black man is shot and killed by police in a Walmart

Meanwhile, back in June, in Michigan, a drunken white man brandishes a weapon ranting about a revolution and calling police "gang members" and yet the police calmly talk with him and then don't even charge him with anything.
