Well, they're getting bigger than just Ferguson, so I wasn't sure what to call them. St. Louis riots? The way the flames are being stoked, it's gonna be nation-wide here in a couple more days, so we'll be renaming it again.

I didn't realize the meme was already spoken for, referring to when our debt finally collapses all entitlements (that's gonna be fun).
I just thought it was a good descriptive name as it all seems to be about what people feel they're entitled to- cigarillos, walking down the middle of the street disrupting traffic, liquor, beef, cigarettes, attention, exemption from scrutiny, a boost in their media career, a boost in their political career, protection at the police command center while simultaneously bad-mouthing them to the world, etc.
