Bloods & Crips Say “United Is Key” For Freddie Gray Justice
CBS Baltimore ^ | May 2, 2015

BALTIMORE (WJZ)– Protesters rallying Saturday say they are gathering to celebrate peace and stand up against police brutality.

Even some unlikely groups are joining forces in Baltimore to rally for justice, sparked by the police-custody death of 25-year-old Freddie Gray.

WJZ’s Marcus Washington was able to meet and speak with gang members of the Bloods and Crips together.

“United is key. You’ve got to be a collective whole to try to sit there and make something happen. Just one can’t do it. Us being together is a better outlook in the whole situation,” one member said, wearing an “I Bleed Baltimore” t-shirt.

A complete story would have include some background on the gangs mentioned...maybe something about a body count (including the race of the dead).

Obama brought peace amongst the gangs.

Gee.

I guess he deserved that peace prize after all.

Recognizing these thugs as legitimate political entities would be akin to having the KKK on the ballot. Probably worse.

So we now have gangs as community organizers?

Yeah...we’re about see the Third World come to life right here on the big city streets of America.

Here’s a question I do not think anybody is asking though,

Was Freddie Gray a major gang member? One must ponder why the gangs are organizing around this particular incident? What is in it for the lawless? There is no upside in pushing for a federalized police force?

Give it time. In the not too distant future, one gang will "dis" another member by looking at him the wrong way and the killings will commence again.

Don't think that has been said, but the disguised cops did say that he and Donta Allen were police informants.

You know you’re in trouble when your administration turns to murderous gangs to help quell the rioting and looting.

BREAD AND CIRCUS

The officers are thrown to the lions. The mob exploded in a paroxysm of irrational jubilation. A Che Guevara style kangaroo court will judge the accused policemen - according to mob law, no more innocent until proven guilty. Four of the six accused officers are the ones charged with manslaughter. Of those 4, three are Blacks and one is White. Their heads will be presented to the mobs in a silver plate to placate the rabble of noisy angry thugs.

“The liberal left can be as rigid and destructive as any force in American life.” Dem. senator Daniel Moynihan

Democratic hard left control of Baltimore is the root causes of the riots and racial division in spite that all the power is in the hand of Black democrats for several generations.

Baltimore Mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, ordered the police: to “stand down” “LET THEM LOOT. IT’ S ONLY PROPERTY”. We saw hell explode after the Black democratic mayor gave the thugs carte blanche to destroy the city. The police weren’t allowed to defend the city. More than 100 officers were injured, some seriously.

Why the Baltimore riots, looting and destruction of their own Black neighborhoods? Did the Blacks doubted for a moment that the Black establishment in control of Baltimore will fail to condemn the officers to the highest penalty allowed by Law?

Facts are irrelevant for Anarchists, Communists, professionals agitators and “community organizers” followers of Marxist Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” strategy.

Obama is the most racist and divisive president in our history. Obama does not want unity. He wants to keep the country as polarized and disoriented as possible. Obama has been inflaming racial tension since he took power. According Alinisky’s tactics adopted by Obama, change has to be brought through relentless agitation and “trouble making” of a kind that radically disrupts society as it is.

David Horowitz' excellent recently published pamphlet "Barack Obama's Rules for Revolution: The Alinsky Model" offers keen insights into Alinsky and what it might mean when Alinsky followers are in positions of power. The conclusions he reaches are not pleasant but are borne out by current events, public utterances of the president, his history, and the work of Alinsky himself.

What we are seeing is the most radical President in our country’s history who is unable to govern because governing is not his purpose. The Alinskyite, ever the destroyer of institutions, cannot govern because governments and societies are built upon institutions.

Do Black lives really matter? How many of the parents of Blacks murdered by Blacks received a call of Obama or send his personal representative to the funeral? Did our condolences in chief has ever called the parents of so many Whites killed by Blacks?

As Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke said : Obama ‘Quietly Enjoying’ Unrest in Baltimore.

A total breakdown of law and order is in the interest of both groups.

Do the jacka$$e$ (the Bloods, Crips, Da Mayor, the SA) know the difference between revenge and justice? I doubted.

It's so nice that the organized-crime community can come together in the interests of peace and racial reconciliation. </sarc>

Its about unifying for a more effective criminal enterprise. The narcos are eating them alive I would think.
