When are the whites going to start a riot every time a white life long criminal is accosted by a black cop?

When will "They" learn.

The two recent cop shootings in S.C. & OK, where there was video evidence to warrant charges, I believe murder and manslaughter charges were brought.

But the 3 shooting that sparked the most protest, egged on by speculations from media, politicians & civil-rights leaders, before any evidence was presented, have now been cleared with no charges.

1. Travon/Zimmerman -- No Charges/Cleared

2. M.Brown/Wilson -- No Charges/Cleared

3 F.Gray/Baltimore -- No Charges/Cleared

My point, there are anarchist, racist, socialist, communist, opportunist & politicians that don't want to wait for facts before flaming the fires to the point of riots, looting and even attempted murder like in Houston this week.

And what do you "Them" say, "This bigger than Freddie Gray, we want more free stuff, ain't fair".

If you are a white cop in Baltimore and still showing up for work you must be insane.

Let them burn the whole city down. Call it urban renewal.

I am merely citing the fact that the Mayor was negligent for all the world to see on national television, as opposed to officers ALLEGEDLY doing wrong away from the cameras.

The Mayor's negligence has probably resulted in medical emergencies, if not deaths from all the prescription drugs LOOTED FROM CVS ON HER WATCH being circulated throughout Baltimore.

Are there any black-governed cities that aren’t financial, physical or cultural wrecks?

I sure as hell am never going to fly into, or drive through one again.

America is dividing more and more along racial and religious lines.

Politicians are feeding the hate and distrust.

We are going to end up as two or three separate groups of people sharing the same subcontinent but having very little to do with each other.

She did this for the SOLE purpose of trying to stop the chaos in the city. She’s kicking the can down the road. Riots again eventually, possibly tonight anyway.

That’s fairly typical. That’s how people go to jail for murder when they didn’t kill someone. You are part of the crime.

The Department is currently about 50/50 Black vs. White personnel.

Most likely any Baltimore White officers very close to retirement either full or minimum time are now in serious thought on pulling the pin ASAP.

Amid a city budget crisis, Mayor Rawlings-Blake championed a 2010 pension reform law that changed the minimum number of years of service necessary for full retirement benefits from 20 to 25 years, including for any current employees with less than 15 years on the force; increased the amount that employees must contribute to the system; and changed the way the average final salary of police and firefighters would be calculated for pension purposes.

This has INSURED that there will be violent riots across the country when when/if they are found not guilty.

I really hate to see it this way, and wish I didn’t have to, but if you are white, and in the City of Baltimore, the time has come to run, NOT WALK, RUN, to the County Line, as fast as you can.

Rice was a walking time bomb, so it seems.

The cops might want to keep track of the CVS prescription drugs being sold on the street, THEN CHARGE THE MAYOR FOR CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE FOR THOSE DRUGS ON THE STREET.

Yep. All the white officers for sure and sane black officers should be looking for work in other towns right now. Baltimore isn't worth losing their lives over.
Let the looters have at it, then make them live in the crap holes they've created - and no friggen taxpayer "bail outs" either. They don't deserve it.

Previously knowledgeable reports were that riots are expected which ever way the S.A. findings turned out.

Molotov cocktails being readied by the ‘thugs’ for tonight’s festivities.

Was he Rice THE supervisor of all the others. Did they have to comply with his orders or be written up?
If so more than one will turn on him
Shame he wasn’t removed years ago

Opps, looks like I got Freddie Gray wrong.

I feel the cowardly DA punted this one to a jury.

All white protests, such as Tea Party, REQUIRES PERMITS AHEAD OF TIME. Black causes get free rein.
