Brian Woodyard was pictured on Monday night wearing a face mask and holding a machete outside The Old Clubhouse bar in Baltimore, Maryland, where he works as a bouncer. He told Local21: 'I asked them to please let me stay in because I could set up a defense.'

Charges filed against the six Baltimore police officers for their involvement in the death of Freddie Grey will be dismissed, a George Washington University law professor predicted in an interview with The Daily Caller. John Banzhaf, who teaches public interest law, says that the charges announced by Baltimore state’s attorney Marilyn Mosby on Friday “go too far.” “I think a prosecutor is going to have a hard time proving that the actions did in fact cause death, since they seem to have no theory as to how it occurred,” Banzhaf said in a phone interview. Gray was arrested on April...

[Which party governed Baltimore for 50 years? Hint: It wasn't the GOP. This is the result!] Baltimore Riots As Criminal Culture Writ Large By Edward Hudgins The rioting in Baltimore represents criminal culture writ large. It is what happens every day on a smaller scale in poor minority communities: theft, vandalism, and violence. The flames in Baltimore hideously illuminate the fact that the culture of the welfare state creates the criminals and rioters that plague this city in my native state. The cycle of poverty and violenceThe ostensive cause of the riots was outrage at the death of Freddie Gray,...

Hillary cited all sorts of stats about incarceration rates in her speech yesterday. I could write paragraphs about her misuse of the statistics to make a point rather than build understanding. But at bottom of all the statistics she cited is one simple question, “In each instance that is a part of the stats was the defendant guilty?â€Â If so then regardless of the statistics, the law was followed and presumably justice was done. To contend differently is to contend that somehow the law and justice parted company. Justice is measured in the facts of each individual case. It is not...

Had Freddie Gray been robbed, beaten and left to die in the streets of his Baltimore neighborhood, no one would be mourning him today. No one would be marching for Freddie. No one would be using Freddie as the new poster child of “Black Lives Matter!” No one would care, three weeks later, but his family and friends. It was the manner of his death, suffering a fractured spine in police custody, that makes Freddie matter. For he can now be credibly cast in the victim’s role in the great new narrative against America – that ours is a society...

He's the hero Baltimore deserves — and, for better or worse, the one it needs right now. A man built like a brick house, wearing a surgical mask and wielding a machete, has been dubbed the "Baltimore Batman" for taking justice into his own hands when chaos came over Baltimore during protests over the death of Freddie Gray. Brian Woodyard — who has the same initials as Bruce Wayne — said he'd warded off dozens of rioters from The Old Clubhouse, a bar where he works, fittingly, as a bouncer.

The six Baltimore police officers involved in the arrest of Freddie Gray – who died last month after being injured in police custody – have been charged criminally, State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby announced Friday. Mosby's announcement on the steps of the War Memorial Building was greeted with cheers and applause. Mosby said she told Gray's family that "no one is above the law and I would pursue justice upon their behalf." Desmond Taylor, 29, shouted in jubilee in front of the War Memorial Building. Mosby: Freddie Gray's death a homicide, officers charged Investigation and medical examiner reports say Freddie Gray's...

Socialism is also the drive behind the rotting of America, the upheaval in politics, the killing of liberty, and the riots we've been experiencing, be it Ferguson, or Baltimore May Day is historically a day for the workers of the world to unite, and march. In other words, a call for socialism. In the 2016 campaign picture, Bernie Sanders,a self-proclaimed socialist, has decided torun as a Democrat for the presidency. As Newsweek said when Obama took office, “We are all socialists now.” Socialism is also the drive behind the rotting of America, the upheaval in politics, the killing of liberty,...

Obama directing the racial riot movie Mayors and city councils—in office largely courtesy of public apathy—are President Barack Obama’s boots on the ground in the ongoing, carefully orchestrated racial riots coming soon to a city near you. In their bid to rescue America from total Marxist eclipse, patriots, as it turns out, have been knocking on the wrong door. Republicans, who surrendered to the Democrats even after taking over House and Senate in last Midterm elections, have no dog in the racial riots in Ferguson, Baltimore and other cities, but Mayor Stephanie Rowlings-Blake, who ordered a police stand down in...

Why would useful idiots riot to turn our country into a third world basket of lawlessness, corruption, and racial hatred egged on by professional agitators who make the empty promise of non-existent communist social justice? People ask all the time what will it take to return our Constitutional Republic to its previous glory, away from the century-old destructive road to socialism and one world government global communism? The answer is obviously complex, as there are many nefarious plans and forces at play, seemingly unrelated, all merging at some place in time when the point of no return will be reached....

RUSH: Remember after Toya Graham went out there and now, as they're saying, "beat" her son upside the head when she saw him rioting? Remember the police commissioner, Anthony Batts said, "More mothers should be like Toya Graham." In fact, do you remember on Monday? I made a big deal here out of telling you -- and I played the sound bites for you -- of all the people that are focusing on the children and how parents need to get better control of their kids, it's up to the parents. You had the police chief saying so, the mayor...

Hundreds of protestors took to the streets of City Heights, uniting in solidarity for Freddie Gray. Speakers warmed up the crowd just after 6 p.m. Tuesday night at the City Heights Urban Village Park. They called for organized protests to bring awareness to their issues including justice for Gray and to abolish police brutality. A march followed with protestors hands up in the air, chanting, “We will fight for Freddie Gray, all day, all night!” Several streets and intersections were blocked off by police to ensure the safety of the protestors. The entrances to the I-15 freeway off University were...

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...

Investigators with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have classified Monday night's fires in Baltimore – including a blaze that destroyed a senior apartment complex – as arson, and are seeking help in solving the crimes. The ATF has established a $10,000 reward for information in the fires, which ATF Special Agent in Charge William P. McMullan called "violent acts of arson committed throughout our city." "Arson is a crime of violence and the individuals who committed these acts need to be held accountable for their dangerous actions," McMullan said in a statement. The ATF is seeking...

RUSH: There is a front-page story on the Washington Post today. Let me repeat this. A front-page story on the Washington Post, and it looks like the Freddie Gray story is gonna go the same way as the Gentle Giant's. The original Gentle Giant story was this: "The Gentle Giant was walking around town on a beautiful Saturday and he stopped into a convenience store to pick up some things that he wanted. "He left the convenience store with a friend, and he was very excited, the Gentle Giant was, about his upcoming first year at college! Yes, he was...

RUSH: Another bit of evidence here demonstrating how you listen to this program regularly, and you will be on the cutting edge of societal evolution, and you will know in advance what is going to happen in the world of liberalism. On Tuesday on this program... This is the day, remember, that we had the mom. Toya Graham was inside her house. She's the mother of six kids in Baltimore. Does not have a job, does not have a husband, relies on the Democrat Party for everything, and she doesn't have anything. She watching television, and all of a sudden...

Much of the mainstream media coverage of the Baltimore riots has focused on the supposed misdeeds of police in a city with an alleged history of police brutality, but far less attention has been given to a number of complicating factors surrounding the outbreak. Widespread rioting, looting, and burning erupted on Monday after the funeral of 25-year-old Freddie Gray, who was arrested in Baltimore on April 12 and died a week later from spinal injuries he suffered while in custody. Here is a Newsmax look at the 17 things about the Baltimore riots the media won't tell you: 1. Gray...
