I don't begrudge anyone their right to say whatever they want. I just come at this thread from the totally opposite point of view from most of the posters. Most of you don't care about Baltimore, you

Anyone reading this thread knows my point of view. I think a number of police officers essentially ended the life of a man who wasn't breaking any laws, and need to be held accountable for that crime.

Yes, that is an oversimplification, and likely also a mischaracterization.    People aren't arguing that environment doesn't have a large influence on your life.  Most people are arguing that they're

I love it when a guy like Sheriff Clark gets on there and shuts the piehole of a racist black guy like this bozo that Fox has on there. 'It's not cops slaughtering black people, it's black people slaughtering other black people'.

You're thinking of the Pinto. Or maybe a Toyota with a stuck accelerator pedal.

I don't know how some of you people can watch this type of news coverage day to day.

2% news being reported 98% agendas being pushed, constant wild speculation and constantly trotting out "special" guest analysts to just bark over 3 other people and off to a commercial break.

Sickening

I'm in bed, TV off, updates solely from this thread.

Leland for President sites are popping up all over the Internet.

I just heard the rioters have sent their dive team to the zoo to tranquilize and extricate the alligator and the hippo. Reports say one will be deployed in East Baltimore and the other on the west side. Unmarked vans are on the move for transportation purposes. Edited by Evilgrin 72

Do any white people live in West Baltimore? I haven't seen any looting

I'd love to take a run at West Elm, Pier 1, or even a Yankee Candle.

if they started the yankee candle store on fire it would be the best smelling riot ever bromigos

google > "baltimore zoo lion" > search tools > last hour

I seriously hope this is fake. That lion is going to hurt someone and they're going to have to kill the lion. That sucks.
Think for a minute. Who would have released a lion and how/why?
LOL. You are trying to attribute rationale thought to a rioting mob? If someone can think of it, or someone can fake it, someone can do it. There's no policing going on in Baltimore tonight. Anything is fair game.
Seriously?

Anyone that buys the Lion story I have some property to sell burn down

I knew a property owner in North Long Beach who made a ton of money after the L.A. Riots because all of his crap buildings were burned down. Later on there were rumors that he paid looters to do it.

Trust me when I say that not every landlord that loses a building tonight is that unhappy about it.

I live close enough to Baltimore not to worry about the riot. However, I'm close enough to worry about this giant octopus that's on the loose. I'm right by the water! :oldunsure:

This mayor is in way over her head.

There aren't many mayors that wouldn't be IMO. Let's see how this plays out from here, the riots have largely been confined to the north and northwest of downtown.

Unfortunately yeah. She said some unfortunate things the other day (which she's now taking back) but she made some poor decisions here, no doubt. So did the police chief.

You would think that after decades of dealing with riots, authorities would know by now how to contain them and prevent escalation. But they seem to make the same dumb mistakes over and over.
