FR was VERY quick to debunk it and I was too quick to believe it. Serves me right. An even though he had a HUGH and SERIES rap sheet (I’ve been dying to use that) many freepers are right. That doesn’t warrant brutality. I try to change my thinking. Not going to lie and say we lost a great American. But I guess that’s not what its about.
I will say that I was surprised that the mods left the posts - it was posted more than once - up and running. The source was very dubious and it was all somebody’s suppositions.
Unfortunately, I saw people on other threads even today citing the post as truth, so the damage has been done.
Personally, I think Freddie Gray had a very severe asthma attack and possibly a seizure as a result, and the police either ignored it or didn’t check him closely enough when they stopped the van. The thumping and even the broken back is consistent with the type of injuries sustained by people in the course of a major seizure. He wasn’t belted down, but his arms and legs were restrained, and bucking his body against them may well have resulted in a broken back.
So the police were at least negligent, possibly even criminally negligent, but it’s a long way from that to “police brutality” or even intentional injury.
But that’s just my theory, and that’s all I’m offering it as! One theory among many...
This is the nonesense police have to contend with by punks.......Punk calls police for help.....gets in police face...he takes him down...moans and groans and says “I can’t breath”...puts on an act....They do this now for the head camera’s the police wear now. This guy knows the game well.
