Local media and public officials refuse to report or talk about how everyone involved in these hyper-violent confrontations is black. But neighbors know. And many think that the race of the criminals is preventing law enforcement from arresting and prosecuting those responsible for these “riotous” and “out of control crowds.”

The latest violence is centered around the Skate Land roller rink in the Baltimore suburb of Fullerton. The crowds range from 300 to 900 people. They require as many as 25 police cruisers and a helicopter to control.


So many police for one location? If SHTF in Baltimore, let alone anywhere else there will not be enough police to make a difference.

Exactly. Saw the Newark riots of 67 up close. Took the state police augmented by the National Guard to bring that somewhat under control over a week or so. Buildings burned down, commerce stopped, arrests of 1000s each day and many dead, officially 44, but unofficially higher from what I gather. City never recovered, never will. So, the watchword is load up.

I think that's over the city line into the surrounding Baltimore County. Different police force.

***
This skating rink is located in Baltimore County, so the police on detail here are from the county’s police force and not from Baltimore City’s force.
