Down at Westlake Plaza, a host of people gathered this afternoon to stand as part of a nationwide moment of silence, in solidarity with Ferguson, Missouri. No one chanting, no one speaking, no bullhorns. Just people and signs. The circle of people faced inward. You can see other cities' similar vigils on Twitter with the hashtag #NMOS14.
