Ferguson riots

弗格森骚乱 (fu ge sen sao luan)

Fresh protests have erupted in about a dozen US cities against the decision to not indict white policeman Darren Wilson for fatally shooting 18-year-old African-American Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, in August. Protests against the shooting have been continuing in about 90 cities in 34 states, sporadically in some, since then. Protests of this scale have been rarely seen in the US since the Vietnam War.
