yanno, I'm sick of staying quiet....this whole situation is utterly ridiculous....
First off, Freddie, the dude that started these riots again, (although most probably didn't even know or care why they were rioting, stealing, burning, they just saw it as a chance to do so) but, there was a criminal in the back of that van, and it was partitioned off....but after they put Freddie in the van, the criminal reported that he heard Freddie, rolling back and forth over and over again, banging himself up against the wall....
Freddie had a rap sheet a mile long, as do most of these people who claim police brutality (are there a few who are truly vicitmized, of course, I believe there are bad cops out there) however, it is not to the magnitude that these criminals claim it is....
It is in fact, bad parents that bring up these kids, and don't care about them, so they grow into criminals, starting out, with very minor crimes, but each time they are arrested the crimes escalate....
Bottom line is, as most people have told you all to do, if a cop stops you, keep your mouth shut and do what he says, if you resist arrest, then it's your own damn fault!!!
Baltimore really has their act together ...... they just released 101 Rioters with no charges and no paperwork.
I bet they are really scared now to go back to the Burning and Looting. Madam Mayor apologizes for calling the RIOTERS "thugs". They get a Get Out of Jail FREE card. I guess that's a pretty good apology.
The releases were the result of a logjam for police who were scrambling to pull the necessary paperwork to file charges at the same time they were trying to keep peace on the city's streets, Kowalczyk said.
Batts, the police commissioner, told reporters Wednesday night: "We've come up on a timeline. We are releasing them with future prosecution in mind. ... We're not giving up on them."
STEPHEN A SMITH, ESPN: "Our ancestors, considering our history and what they had to go through and the sacrifices that they had to make to get us to this point, our ancestors would be ashamed of how we’re conducting ourselves. And it needs to be addressed and it needs to be stopped because I see a whole bunch of young brothers and sisters out here right now. They’re here with us. They wouldn’t act that way."
What's up with those white hipsters hanging around the riot scene? I've even seen some with "black lives matter" posters. Notice they won't venture too far away from the cameras.
Also, has anyone else noticed the silver Sonata that is constantly driving around? I've seen it on multiple channels and both days of the riots. Seems strange to me.

and he is telling the truth, the paper work that police have to fill out, for each and every arrest, is time consuming and very detailed, So I can definately understand....plus, I bet they didn't have any place to hold so many....but yeah, brats? I call them Criminals for what they did, and they should put the fear of God in those kids.....cuz they're parents evidently do not

Stupid and violent isn't just a black thing. There are enough stupid white animals too. Response should be the same. "You Loot, We Shoot".

Well said, Stephen A.
Last night I bumped into a woman while at a restaurant....she and I started discussing this issue, and we both agreed, how much we loved and respected Martin Luther King. well, these people made him real proud don't you think? (I'm being sarcastic) He lost his life, fighting for blacks....and always telling them, they need to do the right thing....I swear, schools should play his speeches in school, and the kids should have to write a report on why and what he was doing.....
Yanno what....real tired of hearing this excuse....who are the majority out there?
this isn't a black or white issue, this is in fact a Humanitarian issue....enough is enough!
Agreed. It is a "humanitarian" issue. Sick of seeing innocent people suffering at the hands of people like the rioters. And the Freddies of the world. Until we do something to protect innocent people from these animals instead of pandering to them we are no better than the animals.
What you saw Monday afternoon was "Lord of the Flies" come to life.
Kids running wild while the adults, with the exception of one, just stood there and watched.
