Dollar costs of the Ferguson Riots by mid-2015 were still not available, that is, damage to [[private property]] and government riot-control costs. The ''real cost'' is in the loss of ''future'' income which now will never materialize.<ref>http://hoosierecon.com/2015/03/07/total-cost-of-ferguson-riots/</ref>

==="Hands up, don't shoot" myth===
 
The "Hands up, don't shoot" myth originated with Brown’s companion, Dorian Johnson, immediately after the shooting. Witnesses described him saying, “The police shot my friend and his hands were up.” And the phrase spread quickly throughout the neighborhood, morphing into “Hands up. Don’t shoot.”  It was picked up and amplified by the [[CNN]] and other [[fake news]] media outlets and became an anthem for [[Marxist]] activists and [[Black Lives Matter communist organization]].
