CNN’s cameras caught a rioter in Baltimore cutting a hole in a fire hose that was being used to fight a fire at a CVS that had been looted during violence in the city on Monday. Two holes were cut on the hose, one that their cameras did not catch, and another that someone opened by stabbing the hose with a knife.

Period. Pure and simple.

Anyone denying this....look to the couple where the hubby was shot while on a jet ski while on a border lake.

Cartel killed all the guys involved for drawing US heat on them.

Got to admit I heard the rioters targets tonight on TV in the background and had to laugh......

CVS....cell phone store...liquor store....lol.....

Yeah, that's not social justice....that's 5-finger discount.

I don't agree with the treatment of the suspect but seriously, the protesters aren't really winning hearts and minds.

Oh, ok, I get it. He had a rap sheet. Having a rap sheet justifies murder. I never knew that.
When did I say it justifies murder? Again had he been in jail like he should have been, this wouldn't have happened.

The thugs are still rioting and burning. The mayor is now trying to take her previous words back and it's clear the governor is trying to say he was ready but the mayor didnt want the guard until now. Even now she doesn't want to use force. The governor should put the guard in charge.

Yeah, having a rap sheet justifies murder. I see. I am SO proud to be an American!
No I don't wonder why those savages are rioting, it's the same story over and over, it's no wonder and no surprise.
If you bothered to follow the back and forth between railman and me you would see that I never justified Freddie's death. I did say that he had a lot to do with his own demise. And that's a recurring theme as well.

wtf. that mayor would be lucky to see the end of this term. This lack of action to quickly quell what would obviously become volatile is pretty pathetic.

Did they not hear of Ferguson???

Yeah, they should've had National Guardsmen on the streets 5 hours ago getting people off streets, mass rounding up of trouble makers as well as having mobile protection squads assigned for the heroic firemen and EMTs.

They need to start bringing in the heavy duty stuff...armored personnel carriers with turret-mounts and 100+ equipped Humvees patrolling as many side streets as possible to clear the thugs.

My opinion: This riot, just like the riot in Ferguson, has nothing to do with protesting police brutality. It is rooted in the feeling that poor young black men blame Whites and Asians for their economic position in society. They are feed this victim mentality propaganda by racist "Black leaders" like Al Sharpton. It is present 365 days a year, and acted on often in both aggressive (young black male criminality) and passive aggressive ways 365 days a year. The police brutality protest was just an excuse to act out and take vengeance on non blacks and symbols of authority, and to loot and steal.

Dear Mayor/Governor of the next Race Riot City, USA:

Please send in extra-large amounts of National Guardsmen with heavy equipment, vehicles, anti-riot gear, extra local police, to enforce curfew and guard/protect businesses/establishments BEFORE things go out of hand.

Thanks,

Rest of America
