These sensitive misdirected youths are understandably upset because some evil people have called them thugs ... and you Freepers should keep this in mind when you comment ... and not add to the problems there!

“The president of the Baltimore City Council apologized for calling rioters “thugs” at a press conference Tuesday”

Wouldn’t want to hurt the self esteem of the yutes.

um..

I am starting to wonder where the Republican candidates are...

They are being “handed” one of the three legs of the stool of conservative victory and I have yet to read where any of them have taken up the gift that has been given them and claimed the safety and security leg needed for a conservative victory.

Given this and what the Mayor has said, it appears obvious to me that Baltimore is going the way of Detroit, if not there already. An effectively dead city. What happens when you put the Dems, the Left, and the unions in charge of everything.

Words fail me too.

Those poor little “teenagers” must have been upset.

I wonder what the new definition of “thug” is ????????

Our so-called “leaders” appear to be growing stupider by the day.

Another reason to get out of Baltimore and take all of your assets with you. The city leadership needs to be taken out for a nice chat by some of these misdirected youths. The beatings will continue until morale improves.

These “leaders” are completely insane. What does one say in reply to such a statement?

The dreaded “racist” word may be hurled at them.

Cowards all——we have no leaders anymore.

The lives of the businessmen being dragged from their businesses and beaten - MATTERS

The lives of innocent citizens being drug from their cars and beaten - MATTERS

The lives of people who homes have been burnt - MATTERS

***

The lives of these riots CEASED TO MATTER the moment they choose to deprive their fellow citizens of their lives.

And if elected you can be sure that I will protect using all the force necessary the lives of those innocent citizens who’s lives matter!


I would like to see one of OUR candidates state something to that effect.
