It's a little more complicated than that -- I feel obligated to point out that only the Leftists really expect the National Guard to start ramming Bayonets into "peaceful protestors". I'm willing to put money on "they won't use Bayonets".

It began with a Black dude dying at the hands of the Baltimore Police -- the Baltimore Police (lets keep in mind that the entire hierarchy in Baltimore is actually run by a Black Mayor/City Council/Police Commissioner) - is stonewalling the public on what actually went down. Unfortunately, they can't blame nasty Republican White Racists for that "stonewalling" ..... which should make everyone ask ..... what's the Real Deal? We still know absolutely ZERO about the Police Officers involved - I suspect that's part of the issue.

When the MOB has free License by Public Order from Madam Mayor and the Police Department (that SHE controls) to have "space to destroy" whatever they please ...... YEP, it's a problem. I pretty much expect the National Guard and the "White Dude" Republican Governor to be seriously tested very soon.
If not tonight - then certainly on Saturday.

They are in extremely serious NEED of a Scapegoat in Baltimore. Only ONE is on the Horizon and it isn't Madam Mayor of 5 years Tenure OR the Black powered City Council/Police Department or Elijah Cummings. They HAVE to have a White Republican Dude to blame - nothing else will work.

So it only counts if a person threw a chair through a window? A stool at a person doesn't count? The white woman pictured in the article I linked to will be relieved to hear that.

"Here were drunk, angry, white baseball fans and bar-goers who were equally guilty for the violence that happened that night and embraced the chance to fight and provoked some of it, and any accurate narrative must acknowledge that and barely anyone has acknowledged that. If you’d like to call Baltimore County whites and Boston Red Sox fans “outside agitators,” then you’ve got your outside agitators. - See more at: How drunk sports fans helped spark Saturday night's post-protest violence - citypaper.com

What are you talking about? What only counts?

This has nothing to do with what I was talking about.. You are talking about drunk baseball fans when I am talking about rioters.

Are you completely unaware of the fact that those rioters pictured in your video had been peaceful protestors until coming upon the drunk fans sitting outside the bar? The violence started that day due to interactions between the protestors and those fans.

That is not true. I saw the full version so they were not peaceful. There are other videos up close. The violence that started was not the result of drunk fans.

Washington Post just reportied that Freddie Gray was intentionally injuring himself, according to someone who shared the van with Freddie.

Not sure how credible this is.

Fox news is saying the same, they are reporting that he was banging himself against the wall

Well you are free to read the article by someone who was actually there. And if you were familiar with the Baltimore you would know that those bars are just up the block from where that video was taken. And those protestors had been peaceful until then; otherwise there would have been violence at the hands of the people in that video well before then.
