Thousands March in Baltimore Cheering Arrest of Police Officers
'No Justice, No Peace, No Racist Police' Chants in Baltimore
Saturday, 02 May 2015 06:31 PM
Chants of "no justice, no peace, no racist police" echoed through the streets of Baltimore Saturday during a march that organizers billed as a "victory rally" a day after a prosecutor charged six officers involved in the arrest of a man who died in police custody.
State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby on Friday charged the six with felonies ranging from assault to murder in the death of Freddie Gray. He died from spinal injuries a week after his April 12 arrest. It provoked riots on the streets of West Baltimore and quickly became a rallying cry against police brutality and social inequality in the city and elsewhere.
The planned march was to be a mass protest of Gray's treatment by police, but after Mosby's announcement, the tone had changed to more celebratory.
Shortly after noon at Gilmor Homes, a group of demonstrators, both black and white, young and older, congregated.
"Are you ready to march for justice?" Kwame Rose, 20, of Baltimore, said. The crowded chanted, "Yes."
"Are you all ready to march for peace?" Rose asked. "Yeah," the group answered.
Black Lawyers for Justice was expecting at least 10,000 people to show up downtown. Smaller groups of what looked to be several hundred gathered all around Baltimore and made their way through the streets to join the thousands at the main rally at City Hall.
They carried homemade signs, calling for peace, as well as printed ones asking for justice. Others wore T-shirts that read, "Black Lives Matter."

NO THUGS, NO CRIME!!!
Ready to march for peace???
Now that they have had their riot, they are ready to march for peace??? What the heck???
Tempting fate.
Oh Honey, that fat lady ain't singing just yet. Going from charges to conviction is going to be a long, bumpy road.
This is a good graphic.
thanks...I did it before Holder hit the road...to it may need an update.
“Give us Barabbas!”
parteeee
“HEADS UP EVUHBODY they is STILL ONE KMARK store we aint hit yet!!!”
You’re sure talented with this stuff..
I am out on glorification of this THUG. They don’t want me to use the term “Thug” so I will use the active verb “ THUGGER”.
I’m sick of these thuggers.
Oh please.... PLEASE do.
If they had any principles, every Officer in the City of Baltimore would resign over what was done to these six men. But probably the same amount as the Officers in Ferguson, MO resigned in support of Officer Wilson will resign. Even though they are all shaking their heads saying to themselves, “There, but for the Grace of God , go I.” If asked al of them will have an excuse as to why they do not quit in protest of this wrong. It will be along the lines of, “ I have to support my family”, I have too much time in to leave now” “I don’t want to lose my pension”. “I only have X number of years before I can retire”. Which is equal to the amount Nationwide who will quit if ordered to either round up American citizens for detention camps or go door to door and take their gun and knives.
#BlackLivesMatter Lynch Mobs Are Better at Getting Indictments Than Convictions
May 1, 2015 by Daniel Greenfield 8 Comments
The #BlackLivesMatter lynch mob has gotten its way in Baltimore. There’s no possible way it couldn’t have. This is a city whose political establishment is so in hock to the rioters that it let them loot and burn their way across the city.
But there’s a pattern here.
The lynch mobs in partnership with Obama, Holder and now Lynch, are good at extracting indictments, usually using shady or inept political hacks looking for their 15 minutes, but terrible at getting convictions.
That’s because the American justice system maximizes the rights of the defendant. The same pro-criminal lobby currently trying to lynch cops, helped bias it that way. And it works against them at actual trials. Add on the expected overcharging and the case collapses.
Let’s look at the #BlackLivesMatter lynch mob track record so far. George Zimmerman, Darren Wilson, Daniel Pantaleo… it doesn’t bode well for the lynch mob in Baltimore.
The officers in Baltimore have been hit with a ridiculous list of charges ranging from, false imprisonment to second-degree depraved heart murder. The size of the list is meant to look like overcharging, but some lessons have been learned and even a hack like Marilyn Mosby has figured out that throwing the whole book won’t work.
Somewhere Obama and his cohorts are celebrating because they know that they have won. They now know that, at the time of their choosing, they can turn toe mobs such as these upon the citizens. And the citizens will beg them to declare Martial law to “protect” them.
