World News: #Ferguson Protests

I was about to go to bed and decided to check my Twitter feed. It had erupted with tweets from and about Ferguson, Missouri. There are mass protests across the entire United States in regard to a ruling in the Michael Brown case.

A jury in Missouri has decided not to charge a police officer over a black teenager’s death. (BBC)

Here are some of the most viral tweets that will give you an idea of what is happening/has happened:
