Protests over the death of Freddie Gray, who died in police custody, took a violent turn on Saturday, resulting in dozens of arrests and widespread property damage. During a recent press conference, Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake confirmed that the protesters were being given “space” to “destroy.”

“While we tried to make sure that they were protected from the cars and the other things that were going on,” the mayor said of the protesters. “We also gave those who wished to destroy space to do that as well. And we work very hard to keep that balance and to put ourselves in the best position to deescalate, and that’s what you saw.”

Perfectly reasonable response on her part. After all, the city and the feds paid good money for those looters.

This black mayor imposed martial law on law abiding fans in a Baseball
Stadium but allowed thugs to run rampant in the streets of Baltimore.

Where’s the satire tag? Did this asshat really say that? How about go ransack/loot his place and see if he likes it.

I hope that remark opens the city and the mayor up to all sorts of lawsuits and settlements for freely saying they won’t protect the property owners.

>>Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake confirmed that the protesters were being given “space” to “destroy.”

I wonder if she’d be so content to let them destroy if it was her business, home, or car in the way of the feral hordes?

When the stuff that belongs to the “little people” gets destroyed by primates-in-clothing, insurance rarely covers the full loss—if they cover it at all.

The bet idea I’ve heard is for a free fire zone in that area. Just let anyone show up and start blazing away. No charges to be filed. It would solve a lot of problems.

Deescalate using Rule Three-Zero-Three (or Three-Zero-Eight or Five-Five-Six). Its all they understand.

LOL! It’s those fat ass drunk whites who go to baseball games that we have to be afraid of—not the violent black underclass.

I see a strange pattern wherever blacks run “towns”. I don’t recall Romans allowing Carthaginians to be Procurator’s or Governors. This mayor is as much an enemy of America as the rioters.
