Baltimore needs as mayor, Toya Graham,,the mother that took his son from the mob.

According to the FBI in 2011, 193 blacks were killed by whites, 448 White killed by Blacks while 2,447 blacks were killed by blacks. That is 2.3 times more whites killed by blacks than the other way around despite the fact that theres six times as many whites in this country.
Do Black lives really matter? How many of the parents of Blacks murdered by Blacks received a call of Obama or send his personal representative to the funeral?

If this was stated over the radio as he is quoted saying in the article it is only a matter of time until the recording is released. That will be very devastating. Sunshine is a great disinfectant.
“Lewis claims after the riots many officers told him they were done being cops in the city and how heartbroken they are that they were not allowed to defend their city and stop businesses from burning.”
I don’t blame them.
The recording is at the link.
Rush Limbaugh playing the interview with this sheriff right now.
I’m referring to the police radio recording, not the radio interview. The official police radio recording.
Mayor “Beauty School Drop Out” shows why it is important to have someone with at smarts and integrity in office.
“at smarts “?
Really computer?
Oh, you think it will be released?
Id bet hundreds if not thousands of written reports of her having said so exist.
