San Antonians hit streets to protest death of Freddie Gray (4/29)
KSAT ^ | 4/29/15 | Bill Barajas

Posted on 04/30/2015 5:29:47 PM PDT by markomalley

The chants started early and lasted well into the night on Wednesday.

The Perrin Beitel location is the same site as many other recent protests, including the high-profile officer-involved shooting of 23-year-old Marquise Jones.

"We are one of the largest cities in the country and every other city is saying something. We can't go unheard," said protestor Marcus McNeil. "We have to let people know where we are."

Protesters have watched how peaceful rallies can quickly turn violent, with buildings being burned and stores looted.

"It was a long time coming. It was a powder keg that people kept putting a Band-Aid on," said protester Alicia Jackson.

The San Antonio Police Department was also on hand, but could only be seen at a distance.

"They're a vocal group and there's no law against that. We are here, we are glad to come out, and support their right to assemble and their right to be heard. We are here to keep the peace," said SAPD Sgt. Javier Salazar.

Obama and his riots. Hello Congress, how much longer are you going to allow this to go on? Oh that’s right, you don’t exist anymore. This Freddie Gray died on the 19th and not a peep from anybody ....until a week later. Gee why is that? I guess it takes time to pay off the professional protesters and fly them in. And they riot once again before any facts come out. Why is that ? Oh someone can’t be spreading rumors can they now *wink* *wink. We got about a year and a half left before the 2016 election. Gotta amp up those riots man so by that time martial law can be issued.

If we could remove as many freddie grays as we have rallies, it would be an encouraging trend.

Well at least they are getting smarter. Perrin Bidel is North Side, these ignerint ganstas are from the West and South side. Shootings black on black is as common as a breakfast taco at Taco Cabana.

NYC looked like a giant pub crawl last night. But you never know.

Are protesters suppose to stay on the sidewalk or on the street? And what’s with all the heavy backpacks? Are their pressure cookers in them?

Another LIE.

The dead perp POINTED A GUN AT A POLICE OFFICER.

He was shot dead, and the protest pound is at the curb holding signs.

(getting sick of these turds)
