Baltimore riots...

Wouldn't surprise me though. My prediction off what you heard was true: three aquittals because the prosecution fails to prove that the officers intended to kill Grey.

That's my understanding of what happened in the Casey Anthony trial. The prosecution overshot by going for murder when it's doubtful that Anthony actually wanted her daughter to die. Consequently she got off, when manslaughter was more provable: that Anthony acted in such a reckless manner that a reasonable person could have expected the little girl to die from Anthony's actions.

Anyway, I'm totally playing armchair lawyer when I'm not a lawyer at all. The standards could be totally different in Maryland, and reckless behavior could count for a 2nd degree murder conviction.

Time will tell, but the media probably won't.
 
The prosecutor is a rookie black woman making a grandstand play, going for the notoriety.
Didn't wait 5 min between the time she got the police report and filing charges. Charging them with everything possible, hoping something will stick. Probably forgot spitting on the sidewalk.
I'm not saying the policemen involved are innocent, they made a lot of bad mistakes and should be held accountable.
 
Oh, and the left wing media in this cesspool state has never once mentioned his criminal background, he's still a "good boy".
 
Sorry if this is insensitive, but given the chance, animals will behave like animals. I applaud the mother who gave her kid a proper chastising.

Me too. I think this is a really interesting case. It's really showing how poor reportage has become.

The prosecutor was elected in January. She was formerly an attorney for an insurance company. She has never prosecuted or defended a homicide case! I read this yesterday in the NYT so it must be true! She does have a large office of deputy prosecutors who have experience and I bet she will take credit for all their work.

She is married to the city councilman whose district was burned and looted in the riots. His political future probably depends on her appearing tough in this case. Do you think there might be a conflict of interest in this case? Even if she gets convictions there will probably be grounds for an appeal by each officer.

They should have had an outside agency perform the investigation; state or feds. They should have an outside prosecutor.

I still don't understand how Freddie died from sliding around the rear of a paddy wagon. The wagon is divided into three small compartments so there couldn't have been all that much momentum. Generations of criminals have ridden in the rear of paddy wagons without fatal results. This really doesn't pass the smell test to me.

It turns out Al Sharpton finally showed up to protest a black on black crime. Even though he didn't mean to.

I highly doubt they are armed to the teeth. Its very likely most or all of them are completely unarmed and are just bodies in uniforms. If they have weapons it is unlikely they have ammunition and if they have ammunition it is a very limited quantity, and finally if they have that limited quantity of ammo, they are most definitely not allowed to have it loaded in their weapons...

Un armed National Guardsmen? You're obviously very young or you'd remember what happened at Kent State Univ.

Quit telling us what you think you might know.

And the commanding General of the MNG did announce last night that the troops were carrying unloaded weapons but were carrying ammo (supposedly).

Glad to see the General was able to confirm my point (or what I thought I might know) for you. Haha.

I would agree with this statement. It is not stereotypical, but in fact statistical. There are more types of individuals in "ghettos". And while it is a vicious circle to deny this and then say we are racist is elementary. Moreso what is sad here is a particular mindset of an individual that tries to capitalize on these moments and use them for their own personal gain and manipulate not only the situation, but the minds of the crowd as a whole with false promises and no true track record. . .this of course is in reverence to the irREVerent Al Sharpton. Because with everything he has been doing I have not seen him once build up a community in a positive way or after a tragic event, but he is usually there during its peak sensationalizing it all and leaving it behind for all to squander and fend for themselves. Really haven't seen him help Ferguson since he was there last, and I'm pretty sure they are still in the same horrible state.

When it's the same who?

Are you referring to poor black people or just those on "the take?"

Bc if you'd like some factual demographics on who is sucking the teet the hardest you may find your stereotypical narrative sinks.

Actually yes, I would like to see what demographics you have of statistical significance from a reliable source?

Leave me out of the argument but here's some FBI stats. The most recent I found on line are from 2013. Every PD in the nation submits a uniform monthly report to the FBI in order to remain eligible for federal funds. That's where the stats come from. Remember Blacks are 12% of the U.S. population. It says here that 49.4% of those arrested for murder and manslaughter in 2013 were black:

54.9% of those arrested for robbery were black. Again 12% of the population.

Thanks! And that's exactly what I was getting at. [MENTION=55551]ndcent[/MENTION] can't call me a racist when in fact the statistical evidence points out what I was saying. I mean unless you want to say that the stats are racist?
The next argument would then be if all cops are bad/racist/should be disarmed, then what does this say about black cops? Do they not count are they pretty much just white folks now at this point? That in itself is racist and now they would be discrediting their own race. It would lead me to believe that in fact not everyone is racist or out to get African Americans, but they themselves are in fact racists against individuals who dont have their same belief of not only disobeying the law but encouraging that behavior.
