The Ferguson – Mike Brown protesters marched in downtown St. Louis today.
The protesters are demanding that the mayor drop all charges against them for their assaults and illegal actions.
Three protesters were arrested in November after the Ferguson mob tried to storm City Hall.
One Ferguson activist who met with Obama in the White House was arrested during that demonstration.

Security officials chained all of the entrances shut so protesters could not storm City Hall.
