On Sunday night the St. Louis Police Officers Association demanded a very “public apology” from the Rams organization over the stunt.
The NFL announced on Monday it would not discipline the Rams players for their Ferguson “Hands Up” protest.
On Monday a Boycott the Rams Facebook page was launched.
The page now has 20,000 supporters.
From the Facebook page: A page to express your dislike with the Rams actions about Ferguson Mo. No ignorance, threats or plain stupidity will be tolerated.
