C'mon now, it's not 'looting' it has now been politically corrected to be either 'Extreme shopping' or the more scholarly 'Forceable group reallocation of private property'. It is also no longer called 'rioting' and can be referred to as 'Intentional use of physical force to exhibit group led displeasure with status quo institutional disempowerment'. (Wow, there's a mouthful) With much love to the late great Gil Scott Heron...The Revolution Will NOT Be Televised........ And Hillery is on the tube making things "better"! |

InvictusV stated >>> Between 4:20 and 6 pm today there were 2 black males shot and 1 black female shot in West Baltimore. This goes on day in and day out. I can only imagine if they ever decided to riot over them shooting and killing one another. There are so many shootings that the city would be razed in about 2 weeks. MsHarmony stated >>> this is no more about 'shootings' in general than susan smiths case (remember her?) was about drownings in general the point is the EXPECTATION of the person with the AUTHORITY over others like a mother to her child or police to the citizens there is an accounting when citizens shoot citizens, it is the justice system but the protesting is about who holds police accountable,,,, Tomato86 stated >>> who holds police accountable? other police, thats the problem. EXACTLY...and therein lays the problem; what gets reported is often a biased 'knee jerk' fed portion of what an editor thinks will sell that broadcast and make them the #1 rated news feed for that time slot - not what was actually happening! And with all events there are 2 sides to every action and the way that this went down and if my child was left stranded at school because some nimrod shut the bus service down and there was NO WAY TO GET THOSE KIDS OUT OF THERE; WTF were those kids to do??? I'D BE ONE LIVID MOTHER! Eyewitnesses: The Baltimore Riots Didn't Start the Way You Think Baltimore teachers and parents tell a different story from the one you've been reading in the media. —Sam Brodey and Jenna McLaughlin on Tue. April 28, 2015 6:00 PM PDT When school let out that afternoon, police were in the area equipped with full riot gear. According to eyewitnesses in the Mondawmin neighborhood, the police were stopping busses and forcing riders, including many students who were trying to get home, to disembark. Cops shut down the local subway stop. They also blockaded roads near the Mondawmin Mall and Frederick Douglass High School, which is across the street from the mall, and essentially corralled young people in the area. That is, they did not allow the after-school crowd to disperse. Meghann Harris, a teacher at a nearby school, described on Facebook what happened: Police were forcing busses to stop and unload all their passengers. Then, [Frederick Douglass High School] students, in huge herds, were trying to leave on various busses but couldn't catch any because they were all shut down. No kids were yet around except about 20, who looked like they were waiting for police to do something. The cops, on the other hand, were in full riot gear, marching toward any small social clique of students…It looked as if there were hundreds of cops. The kids were "standing around in groups of 3-4," Harris said in a Facebook message to Mother Jones. "They weren't doing anything. No rock throwing, nothing…The cops started marching toward groups of kids who were just milling about." A teacher at Douglass High School, who asked not to be identified, tells a similar story: "When school was winding down, many students were leaving early with their parents or of their own accord." Those who didn't depart early, she says, were stranded. Many of the students still at school at that point, she notes, wanted to get out of the area and avoid any Purge-like violence. Some were requesting rides home from teachers. But by now, it was difficult to leave the neighborhood. "I rode with another teacher home," this teacher recalls, "and we had to route our travel around the police in riot gear blocking the road… The majority of my students thought what was going to happen was stupid or were frightened at the idea. Very few seemed to want to participate in 'the purge.'" for the rest of this story >>> http://m.motherjones.com/politics/2015/04/how-baltimore-riots-began-mondawmin-purge Are the local politicians going to call those teachers 'LIARS'; going to dispute what they were seeing --- there is phone/video tape of the events all around there too and it wasn't all the students behaving badly! Unbelievable this was in broad daylight and on school property---and kids that normally have to get on a bus to ride 2-3 miles to get home were just left stranded; WELL DONE...you want to cause chaos and ignite a fire storm --- seems the plan worked really well. |

for the rest of this story >>> Lets assume this story is true (I googled and only found that one article and I would think it would be all over the internet if true, but Ill give the benefit of doubt that a more credible source may show up).....but, assuming its true, how does that justify the looting and burning?

Has anyone noticed the change in the conversation lately? While the media tries to sell the "cops have a rough job" dialog, and the liberal "nobody needs to own a gun" BS, the basic person is talking about how out of control the govt is, prepping for a coming disaster (not necessarily a natural disaster), gun sales are going up, and Hitlery and liberal leadership is taking a hit from both sides of the media. I even notice it here  The fluoridated water is losing its effectiveness!  The conversation is changing, and NOT in favor of more govt! Maybe people are listening a little closer to what we are told is news, or checking the dialog through alternative media sources and connecting the dots a little more wisely? Whatever the reason, perhaps there is yet still some hope for us? |
