Freddie Gray & Baltimore, MD

[The Troll]

Yet. I can about guarantee that if you ever needed one or had something happen, you would be calling them! You can be an ass all you want but the fact remains that many who have been shot by cops were breaking the law!

  Your damn right I'd call them, that's their job.  That is why I pay taxes.  You're the ass when you say that it is all right to kill an unarmed person.  Running is not a capital murder offense.  You're the people who have cause all of the bad cop killing by defending them.     

[Henry Hawk]

Nobody has said it it alright to kill an unarmed person.  But, you act as if this is a problem that is out of control.  It happens, and if and when it does, we need to throw the book at those guys.  Cops are by and large, FANTASTIC human beings.

It sickens me to read comments like the Troll leaves....I find it very disturbing that people actually think that way.

Where have I ever said that it is right for police to kill an unarmed person? I haven't and I never will but some of the ones who have been killed and tased were breaking the law and aiming to kill law officers. You pay taxes just like I do but that doesn't mean that any person whether they are law officers, fire personnel, garbage workers or street sweepers deserve to be abused and mistreated by the public.

If one of those kids wreaking havok in Baltimore were mine they would be grounded 'til they were 50. That is unreal and totally uncalled for.

Yes, and I have heard that the two gangs the Bloods and the Crips are out to kill the cops!

Yep, it started when school let out and the biggest part of the people there are teenagers.

If my son tried something like that: he would not be able to sit down for a long while!

Is this like you 'heard' Willie Nelson was dead? 

[Palehorse]

The media is reporting the two gangs hunting police officers thing. The reports I have seen or read indicate the rioting began immediately following the funeral for the guy that died due to his injuries while in custody. . . But of course they showed video of what appears to be youths throwing projectiles, etc.

That being said, it's just another excuse for the looting and pillaging of businesses in the community; with CVS looted and burning among scores of others. Next they'll be carping because there is no where to obtain the necessities required to live. . .

While I can certainly understand and sympathize with the whole police brutality claim and the civil disobedience they feel the need to undertake in protest of same, I'll never understand this whole looting and rioting mentality. . .  It's nothing more than punishing those who had no hand in what happened, and likely feel just as frustrated over this national scourge that seems to be escalating.

Hahaha. The one of the Bloods and Crops, I heard on the news but don't remember which news told it as I had it on the radio when it was told about this!

Just making an observation, but I am almost certain, that those "Thugs" that are destroying a city, are NOT REPUBLICANS..........and more than likely are going to vote democrat. 

Not making this out to anything other than an observation....

Of all the inane things you have posted, this has to be the stupidest.

[Henry Hawk]

I am NOT disagreeing with you on that, but it IS an observation, that is probably true.

[Purplelady1040]

I don't think political parties matter when destroying a city. Most of the thugs probably don't even vote! I did get a laugh out of the one lady who was smacking her son for being involved in the violence! We need more parents like her!

This Baltimore mother is more like most of the good people there.
