Governor Larry Hogan is closely monitoring the situation in Baltimore City and has been in contact with Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake office to provide the city with whatever resources are required. The Maryland State Police have been dispatched in a supporting role on the ground, as well as other resources and equipment from various state agencies.
Todays looting and acts of violence in Baltimore will not be tolerated. In response, I have put the Maryland National Guard on alert so they can be in position to deploy rapidly as needed. I strongly condemn the actions of the offenders who are engaged in direct attacks against innocent civilians, businesses and law enforcement officers. There is a significant difference between protesting and violence and those committing these acts will be prosecuted under the fullest extent of the law.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the men and women in uniform who are actively working to stem this violence and several who been injured in the line of duty. These malicious attacks against law enforcement and local communities only betray the cause of peaceful citizens seeking answers and justice following the death of Freddie Gray.
That ain't going to happen, and so Baltimore's going to burn tonight.
really!!??! with that mayor? what kind of law is that? she’s an idiot.
Space for chaos, space for flames, what’s not for the left to like?
did he talk to the wrong mayor?
So the governor says it “won’t be tolerated” while the mayor says to give the demonstrators room to destroy.
Yep she’s a charming Negress.
What’s the black activist liberal excuse in Baltimore? They have a black mayor and numerous black city council and black.police officers. So they can’t claim racism here. So what will the excuse be???
Hogan? Sounds More like SGT Schultz, “I hear nothing, I see nothing, I know nothing!”
As I have posted before, Charles Manson must be dancing a jig. Under our first Black pResident, who was elected by well-meaning whites to end the ‘race problem in America’, the race war that Manson was hoping to ignite is finally coming to fruition. The Democrats must be so proud.
" Oh s--t, here we go! It's on! Race War! Race War! Race War! Race war's on everybody! It's going down! S--t is going down!"
Settle down. This isn’t a race war.
WWHD?
(what would Hillary do?)
who knows? there’s always one. She’s pretty though lol. But that is worth nothing.
let’s see, excuses....misunderstood, underpaid, underprivileged, poor, hungry, dog ate their homework, the train was late, had colic as a child...
The governor is racist! After all, they’re just “mourners.” /MSM
Local DC area station has been covering this non-stop for hours; a CVS is burning, other stores broken into, cars being set afire; O’s game postponed:
Find a way to get another $31M funneled to her foundation?
The NC militia is watching this interest. If this is attempted in Raleigh, the cops will be out there to protect the mob. If the cops abandon the citizens, we the militia will take care of business and protect our neighbors.
And “polar bear hunting” is not about race. /sarc
“... Baltimore’s going to burn tonight.”
But who’ll notice? You understand that’s not much of a loss? Sorry, but with rare exception, the city is the total pits. Disgusting place, already with mile after mile of burned out properties from years ago. Maybe ultimately these ferals are doing the city a favor.
The Baltimore Mayor’s office just announced that they will be providing rocks, bricks and bottles for the underprivileged “protestors”. You know, in the name of equality and all. It is not fair that some “protestors” have projectiles and others go without.
Good God - the inmates are running the asylum.
