Two great reads in one day from Greenfield. This one lays it on the line about coddling criminals. Lou

” That should sound familiar. It’s what happened in Baltimore with Rawlings-Blake’s “space to
destroy”. It’s what happened in Ferguson. It’s what has been happening around the country as Obama and his associates have targeted police departments on behalf of criminals.”

Obama stirring up the “urban rubbish”, while he steals the jobs of the ones who really want a job. A “twofer” for the Traitor-in Chief

Heard this morning on NPR a Baltimore guy giving the “journalist” a tour saying how great a town it is, nothing like the newscast says, then told her they could go over to his neighborhood a few blocks away to see how it was, he took her over there and there was a yellow CRIME SCENE tape up, two dead bodies one shot in the stomach, one in the head. He said this only happens one or two times a year and “don’t step in the blood”

The Obama Purge legalizes crime. It legalizes theft, vandalism and assault. Baltimore, like Ferguson, shows us what that looks like. The solution to crime isn’t less law enforcement, it’s more law enforcement. You don’t make society better by empathizing with criminals. All you do is create more criminals and more crime.

 

Correct. And despite the lies by Obama - We (White America) are paying for the crimes in Baltimore.

 

Not enough money? Baltimore got $1.8 billion from Obama Stimulus
American Thinker ^ | 05/04/2015 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on Monday, May 04, 2015 9:51:13 AM by SeekAndFind

Last Tuesday, President Obama blamed the GOP-controlled Congress for its failure to fund the “massive investment in urban communities” that could “make a difference.” Well, how does $1.8 billion for the 622,000 people of Baltimore sound? Pretty massive, actually just about $290 for every man, woman, child, and baby of the entire City of Baltimore.

But that’s the total amount of Obama Stimulus money sent to Charm City, according to an analysis by The Free Beacon:

 The city of Baltimore received over $1.8 billion from President Barack Obama’s stimulus law, including $467.1 million to invest in education and $26.5 million for crime prevention.

If we want to see Stockholm Syndrome at work, all we need do is look at Baltimore, Maryland.

Gotta love liberals. They want to take guns out of law-abiding hands and then grant leniency to violent criminals because they’ve had rough lives. Cry me a f**kin’ river!

Root cause of this particular problem is unlawful arrest. And upon arrest, the cops lied about the pocketknife by classifying it as a switchblade. Then the round-about "rough ride" to the precinct house, which is a form of torture.

Unlawful arrest, lies and torture.

We all know the mantra. Trouble is little if any of it is true. He was arrested for flight and resisting. There were others in the wagon who did not suffer any discomfort. In fact they said he was deliberately trying to harm himself. This was a known drug dealer running from the police. No one witnessed police brutality.
He was not charged with anything prior to booking at the precinct, which never occurred.
In short nothing you repeated is verifiably true. All of the reasons for the riots are made up frauds. Once you get that much straightened out in your head you will begin to be able to understand what is happening.

No, the particular reason, the same reason for the other incidents, is resisting arrest.
Had Gray, Michael Brown, simply followed police instructions neither, include the NY guy choked too, would have happened.

Whether the arrest was justified or not could have been sorted out later.

A good insight. Living under communist rule creates generational Stockholm syndrome. Baltimore has been a gangster thugocracy since the mid 60’s. Every grass roots leader who bucked the system has been destroyed, one way of another, since then, myself included.

As I said, unlawful arrest, lies and torture.

The police have been charged by the prosecutor. With all due respect, please get your head around that.

The knife was illegal, despite what NoJusticeNoPeace Mosby said, all spring-assisted knives are illegal in MD. He also had warrants out for his arrest from what I have read.

The arrest was NOT illegal

The state’s attorney has no credibility in this case. She has said she was predisposed to file charges without a factual basis. This is a rush to judgement that will not stand. Wrap your head around that.

Ms. Mosby faulted the police conduct at every turn. The officers who arrested him “failed to establish probable cause for Mr. Gray’s arrest, as no crime had been committed,” she said, describing the arrest as illegal.

This is the prosecutor speaking.

Ooops sorry, I wanted to comment on the knife and replied to you rather than Foxwell.

Here's what I wanted to send to you:

Officers accused him of possession of a switchblade, but Ms. Mosby said, “The knife was not a switchblade and is lawful under Maryland law.”

This is the prosecutor speaking, not me nor you.

I will agree that it appears to me that there is a rush to judgement; however, her's are very powerful statements for a prosecutor and we must take note of their power, whether we consider them good or bad.

Arrest is not made based on guilt. It is made based on suspicion, probable cause or . The commission of a crime is not required for police arrest. The woman is an inexperienced political hack, nothing better. Gray had been previously arrested as many as 100 times. He was a well know perpetrator. There are quite simply no grounds for charging the officers with illegal arrest.

She, of course, is wrong ad does not know the law pertaining to spring loaded pocket knives, considered illegal weapons under Baltimore law.

She has made outrageous and unfounded charges and accusations. This will probably cost her her elected position.
