No wonder blacks see cops as an occupying force. If you are running ...
Where is that third grade school picture of him in his little white hoodie? That was the only picture we had of 300# Trayvon for weeks.
You know, look at that, other than the second-degree assualt early on, those aren’t violent crimes.
Looks more like a failure of the “war on drugs” to me.
I predict the liberals and race baiters will howl in protest about this information being provided.
Just as they said it was unfair and poisoned the well and all that, when they released the video of Michael Brown robbing that store right before his confrontation with the police, liberals here will say that Freddie’s long rap sheet will also poison the well of whatever “dialogue” Al Sharpton and his boys want to have with us about this.
How is any of this relevant to the (still-unanswered) question of how and why he died in police custody?
There is more documentation on Freddie Gray and
any random dog than the impostor Indonesian that
is dismantling America with the help of the
COMPLICIT, ENABLING, TREASONOUS GOP (Give Obama Power party).
Hate all of this rioting crap as much as the next person. But I do feel for this kid and his family - how the hell was his spine injured? Unscheduled stops in policy custody - why?
“Police released a timetable of the events leading up to Gray’s arrest and death. He was seen at about 8:40 a.m. on April 12 on a street northwest of the city’s downtown. The officers approached Gray and he ran.”
Interesting essay about running from the police and what the police can do.

So he was nominated for sainthood by the Marxist Media.
Pray America is waking
He was probably in jail from late 2008 through early 2012, according to the timeline those are the only times he wasn’t being arrested.
Yawn.
It doesn’t really matter how long his rap sheet was. Being taken into police custody on accusation of a crime (or for any other reason) is not supposed to impose a death sentence without due process of law.
If black folks (or the citizenry of Baltimore) have concluded as a result that the social contract has been voided and that they exist in a state of nature (see Hobbes on what the state of nature is like) vis-a-vis the rest of society, I cannot fault them all that much for their actions.
On the the other hand, neither can I fault shop-owners for shooting looters, any action of self-defense taken against them, or a heavy-handed police and National Guard response to rioting and looting. If it’s going to be the war of all against all, everyone else gets to fight back with all means available.
Model citizen destined for greatness . . . oh whoops!
Known drug dealer. They are always nice guys.
Assault. Burglary.
Carrying a switchblade.
He was probably on his way to choir practice. He was running because he was late.
The guy has a criminal record a mile long, but we are supposed to give him the benefit of the doubt?
But the police are automatically assumed to have murdered him?
Holy cow. Someone should have given him bus fare and $200 to move to colorado
Hey, hey
Love, love
Yeah, yeah
Ah, ha
Freddie’s dead
That’s what I said
Let the rap a plan
Said he’d see him home
But his hope was a rope
And he should’ve known
It’s hard to understand
That there’s love in this man
I’m sure all would agree
That his misery was his
Woman and things
Now Freddie’s dead
That’s what I said
Everybody’s misused him
Ripped him up and abused him
Another junkie plan
Pushin’ dope for the man
A terrible blow
But that’s how it goes
A Freddie’s on the corner now
If you wanna be a junkie, wow
Remember Freddie’s dead
We’re all built up with progress
But sometimes I must confess
We can deal with rockets and dreams
But reality, what does it mean
Ain’t nothing said
‘Cause Freddies dead
Hey, hey
Love, love
Hey, hey
Yeah, yeah
Ha, ha
Love, love
Yeah, yeah
Ha, ha
Yeah, yeah
Freddie’s dead
All I want is some peace of mind
With a little love I’m trying to find
This could be such a beautiful world
With a wonderful girl
Why I need a woman child
Don’t wanna be like freddie now
‘Cause Freddie’s dead
Hey, hey
Yeah, yeah
If you don’t try
You’re gonna die
Why can’t we brothers
Protect one another
No one’s serious
And it makes me furious
Don’t be misled
Just think of Fred
Everybody’s misused him
Ripped him up and abused him
Another junkie plan
Pushin’ dope for the man
A freddies on the corner now
If you wanna be a junkie, why
Remember Freddie’s dead
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Freddie’s dead
Hey, hey
Ha, ha
Love, love
Ha, ha...
If he was in prison, like he should have been, he’d be alive today.
What was he arrested for when they killed him?
It would be interesting to see how much time he actually spent behind bars, and for which offenses. Having worked in Corrections for 25 years, I could never get over how many arrests these guys had under their belt, and how many breaks they were given by the courts. The one thing I learned is that most of them never did the time for the actual crimes they committed because they usually plead down to a lesser charge.
