Reuters has just reported that the Baltimore police officer charged with murdering Freddie Gray is black.
Why is the political left blaming Gray’s death on racism?
And if this black police officer gets convicted and ends up in jail, will the political left then complain about yet another black man being sent to prison?
Sweet.
They always had a twofold agenda ... racial component and anti-police agenda. One down and one to go.
Its hysterical reading from libs on twitter who are saying that the black officers were FORCED by the white cops to do what they did..or that some of that white racism rubbed off on the black cops
The dems are flexible. They will make this one about the need for federal rules & procedures and ultimate federalization of police.
They’re going to try and nail the three white officers and let the others walk.
I wonder if the judge will let them get away with it.
This will be the most racially-charged trial in history. I bet it will be at least two years before trial begins.
Valerie Jarrett will be trying to get the trial moved up so that it happens during the 2016 election season.
We may see a riot with every turn of the trial, whichever side it favors.
I guess the MSM will have to drop the story since they never cover black on black crime
Just sit back and enjoy the cognitive dissonance.
The only way America can be saved is through a Spiritual reformation movement. It will start on our knees.
May 7 is the National Day of Prayer.

They will find a judge who will start off the session with a Nation of Islam prayer, Pledge of Allegiance to Barack Obama and throw the black power salute.
Its when he was in the charge of the black driver we don't know about.
All this cop/racial BS is about 2016. Someone predicted this a year ago. Look for it to continue until 2016.
Where is Nelson Muntz?
Talk about burying your lead: Every source I heard reported six officers charged in his death; not one mentioned that the only one charged with murder was also black.
Gotta have something to get them wee weed up or the democrats lose.
This whole things...like others before it, reaks of corruption, political abuse of the system, and lies.
The Prosecutor’s announcement in Baltimore about bringing charges against six officers there was nothing more than a political campaign speech, it certainly was not a prosecutorial statement.
This prosecutor should not even be prosecuting the case. She should have recused herself because she is a close personal friend to the young man who died family’s attorney. That attorney has been her mentor and was a large campaign contributor to her political campaign to become prosecutor. With a conflict of interest like that, there is no way she should be prosecuting the case.
As to her prosecution, she has charged those officers with 2nd degree, willful murder. It sounds like she is going for the highest charge she can possibly think of without any credence given to the actual facts on the ground. Again, it sounds like she is doing so to make a political statement and try and use that to calm things in Baltimore. But it will not work. It will only end up making things worse.
Given what happened, I do not believe there is any hope or chance of sustaining, or winning any kind of verdict on such a charge. If the arrest indeed was not legal (and that is certainly not established), charge them with illegal arrest and detention. If they did not seat belt the young man in the paddy wagon, charge them with violating their own safety protocol. But to take those two things and turn it into a willful murder of this young man is simply amazing in its over reach.
Finally, any good attorney and prosecutor would not rile up the public and seek to bias them as this prosecutor has done. That too ends up backfiring when the house of cards ultimately comes down.
I believe, like with the Trayvon Martin case in Florida, and the Michael Brown case in Ferguson, MO, huge, and unprovable over-reaches like this end up in having the people they are trying to trump up the charges on being exonerated and found innocent of those charges.. As in those cases, this attempt will end up not serving justice or the interests of Baltimore. Sadly, predictably, it will only make matters worse when the charges cannot be supported and the individuals are found innocent.
It is sad to see the U.S. justice system being politically corrupted right before our eyes like this.
Simple. The left lives in a land where unicorns poop skittles and rainbows all have a pot of gold at the end. In other words, fantasy land.
How are they going to tear down whites that way? Dang.
Not so embarrassing - the real agenda, which is taking over the police, is only using racial issues as a tool to an end.
