Baltimore, Maryland
Violence and unrest are escalating tonight in this city.
Reports on Twitter: 1. CVS Pharmacy on fire. 2. Maryland's governor has issued a state of emergency and activated the National Guard. 3. 7 police officers injured. 4. University of Maryland on lockdown https://twitter.com/AP https://twitter.com/hashtag/Baltimor...06031824031744 Report from last night, as it states the police were even assaulting members of the press: https://twitter.com/chicagotribune/s...72419605745665 Yes, this has escalated from a protest to a full-blown riot. Peaceful protesting is logical; rioting is not. |
Baltimore mayor has set a weeklong curfew, effective 4/28: 10pm-5am.

The mayor is a dumbass. Hopefully the Governor can relieve her of duties so this can get sorted out quickly.
"We gave those who wished to destroy space to do so.." Well she can pat herself on the back because Baltimore is burning. She should never be allowed to live that one down. SMH. |
Shame on the officers who played any role in the negligence Freddie Gray's medical needs and shame on Baltimore residents who are destroying property in the community and injuring people.

Last night on CNN, there were several Omega Psi Phi brothers shown/interviewed who were walking the streets, trying to keep things from escalating, protecting businesses from further rioting. I can't kind any links/articles about it though.

The whole situation breaks my heart between the death of Freddie Gray and the destruction of the city.
I wanted to share this and want to applaud this mother for taking action and keeping her son in line. https://gma.yahoo.com/baltimore-mom-...opstories.html A Baltimore woman took action when she saw her son hanging out with violent demonstrators Monday. The woman, identified by ABC affiliate WMAR as the boy's mother, was watching television when she saw her son throwing rocks at police, the station reported. She went to find him in the crowd and the confrontation turned physical. The woman was caught on camera grabbing the boy and smacking him in the face. "Are you kidding me?" she's heard saying. The station did not identify her by name. |
This must stop on both sides!
Everyone can lay blame somewhere, some place and on those that were there from both sides. Laying blame on a Black Female Mayor is out of any understanding in my mind and uncalled for! Much of my blames lays in the thugs that come in and cause the main problems and the Black Preachers that stir up even more with their rhetoric. Is there raicism in the United Statds, sad to say yes, but look to Europe and there is the same there. The same could be said about many other areas of life. Gay, Lesbien, Transgender or Relegioin! Now what else?? |

I think most of the protesters seem to use the protesting to steal and tear up stuff. And to tear up your own community? For realz? Makes no sense! Smh.

Today's arrests are first steps....still a long way to go, but all we've ever asked is for our intelligence to not be insulted.
