    However, due to pent up emotions, there is currently violence on the streets of Baltimore today.

    More justification of scumbags engaging in criminality. "Pent up emotions" yeah right :rolleyes:

    Laughing and joking while looting your own communitys businesses should be called what it is, not justified. But I await the swarm of Guardian reading communists to jump all over this.

    Baltimore Police say they have received a "credible threat" that rival gangs have teamed up to "take out" law enforcement officers.

    Police said in a statement that they have received information that members of "various gangs" — including the Black Guerrilla Family, the Bloods and the Crips — have "entered into a partnership" to harm police.

    "Law enforcement agencies should take appropriate precautions to ensure the safety of their officers," police said.

    Capt. Eric Kowalczyk, the agency's chief spokesman, said he could not immediately elaborate on how the information was received or why police found it credible. He would not say whether it was believed connected to the ongoing demonstrations regarding the death of Freddie Gray.

    In December, the Baltimore FBI office issued a memo that the Black Guerrilla Family gang was targeting "white cops" in Maryland, an agency spokeswoman confirmed.

    The memo, circulating among officers, said a contact who had given reliable information in the past said members of the gang — connected to the high-profile corruption scandal at the Baltimore City Detention Center — were planning to target white officers to "send a message."

    Things could escalate rapidly. Let's hope they don't follow through with their threats.

    He judged the people around him to be fit for death and crime via drugs. Every day.

    He had an arrest record? So does Charlie Sheen, Robert Downey, Jr, and Sean Penn but I don't see them lying dead in a casket for their past crimes.

    Regardless of the crimes he committed, it does not warrant his death in the hands of police custody.

    A death of a career criminal does not warrant tearing your own neighbourhood apart, rioting and looting.

    'RT Livestream'

    RT is just as bad as FoxNews. I'd be very careful or trusting them as a reliable news source. They are extremely biased.

    Really? It would seem that somebody being beaten to death, sans trial, is the crux of the matter.

    More playing the victim. You and your ilk are always the victim even when smashing up stores and looting. About time people took responsibility for their actions and stop blaming it on "the man".

    You seem to be endeavouring to say something in as oblique a manner as possible. Why is this? Why can't you just come out with it?

    The likes of you, always looking for something to be offended by and play the victim, to excuse criminality.

    A typical leftie tactic, engage in criminality and blame the police government and everyone else. Always a victim, dont have the maturity to take personal responsibility.

    Yet Another "black man din do nuffin" thread from our resident angry black woman.Posts a couple of links without giving her veiw and just sits back.Other mods have been known to call this sort of behaviour "agenda pushing".

    Bear in mind the same OP backed De'Marquise Elkins,who shot and killed a White toddler in his stroller as part of a robbery,to the hilt,claiming that White women often invent these stories and blame black men for it- as soon as Elkins was found guilty,we didn't hear from her on the thread again.

    Funny enough, I'm not the victim here, thankfully. Seeing as the thread centres on what seems to be the beating to death of a man by police, and that I condemn same, I'm not seeing where I excuse criminality.

    I'm glad to see we're going to have a thread without stereotypes.
