There are people dedicating their days to consistently updating Twitter and Facebook to make sure that the rest of the nation doesn’t forget what is going on in Missouri right now as thousands protest the murder and ongoing police brutality.
And then there are people like TNA star Montel Vontavious Porter (aka MVP), who decided just being angry isn’t enough. Instead, MVP bought a plane ticket and made his way out to Ferguson to protest the situation in person. Take a look at his Twitter feed for more updates.
I've made up my mind. I packed a bag. I'm going.

Sometimes shaking your fist angrily at the tv screen just isn't enough.

People of all races here in unity protesting. Volunteers handing out water and pizza. Chants of "hands up don't shoot." No police here.

Good to see MVP take advantage of his ability to actually head out to Ferguson and make a difference.
