(update) via Reuters, another office has been fired for posting borderline threats about the protesters on Facebook:
The other officer, Matthew Pappert, who worked in the nearby city of Glendale, was fired on Thursday for comments he made on Facebook during the protests, the City Administrator said.
Pappert, who was with the city's police department since 2008, wrote on his Facebook page that he thought protesters should be "put down like rabid dogs," according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch newspaper.
He also said protesters were "a burden on society and a blight on the community," the paper reported.

A suburban St. Louis cop who was suspended for pointing his semi-automatic rifle and threatening protesters in Ferguson, Missouri, has resigned, the police chief told the Associated Press. Lt. Ray Albers, who was put on indefinite leave from the St. Ann Police Department after being caught on a cellphone video that went viral, quit the job he had held since 1994 on Thursday. Albers could not be reached for comment.
The video showed the officer pointing his gun at a demonstrator who apparently had his hands up. He cursed and appeared to say, "I will ... kill you" before a sergeant made him lower his weapon and walk away. Albers was among the officers called in from neighboring towns to deal with unrest after a Ferguson police officer shot and killed an unarmed 18-year-old, Michael Brown on Aug. 9.
The video, which contains profanity, has gotten more than half a million hits on YouTube:
I think there were some far-right, extremist, police officers patrolling the Ferguson Protests, I heard one cop guy called President Obama an "immigrant" or something like that even though the President is from Hawaii. I was also reading today that Hawaii was going to get
all messed up from Global Warming soon, and that it will affect tourism over there. Many police officers in Missouri think global warming is fake, but not in Hawaii, they know climate change is real over there.
(*update) someone in the comments said this video footage is better:
