Student 'Purge' Threat Shuts Down Baltimore Businesses, Schools
The Baltimore Sun ^ | Monday, April 27, 2015 | Erica L. Green

The University of Maryland, Baltimore and numerous downtown businesses closed early Monday, citing concerns about potentially violent activity in the area.

Lexington Market, a city courthouse and businesses including T. Rowe Price and Venable LLP said police warned them of large gatherings and protests downtown.

According to widely circulated flier, a high school "purge" was to take place at 3 p.m., starting at Mondawmin and ending downtown.

Such memes have been known to circulate regularly, but today's has led to bolstered police presence around the city.

The flier includes an image of protesters smashing the windshield of a police car this past weekend after a march spurred by the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old man who died earlier this month after being arrested by city police, turned violent and destructive.

A post on the University of Maryland Baltimore's website said that the closure was prompted by a recommendation from city police. The campus will also stop shuttle service.

Remember: Al Qaeda went after Stevens at the hospital.

AQ rebranded ISIS, going to Johns Hopkins to get the LEOs there.

Absolutely.....there is nothing she can say to justify her lack of action. There was no reason not to put a curfew in place tonight...

How about just declare martial law in MD. Shooting on sight. That will break this up real quick.

So tired of people destroying cities(even thousands of miles away), and getting away with it. All it does is embolden other savage youths in other places in the country to do it too.

Can’t believe this Mayor...truly astonishing her denial of reality....seeing a liberal mind work as she talks about her intentions for peace while she holds back the officers as rioters loot and burn....(shaking my head).....

She further said her intentions were “obvious I don’t want to escalate the situation”. Blacks will not address their concerns even when they have black leadership!

What’s a failure of leadership to us, is sheer statesmanship in liberal/socialist Baltimore.

At one point, in some city, the men will HAVE to come out and put these rabid dogs down. For good.

All this allowing these people to destroy our cities will embolden others, and it could be your city next.

At some point groups will put a stop to it. It will be much worse than just stopping it dead now.

Baltimore firefighters battle a three-alarm fire at a NEW senior living facility under construction at Federal and Chester Streets in East Baltimore .......several black businesses were looted....

“They have every right to tear this f-----g city up,” said one man..........."People here are mad about a lot of things,” said a woman who works as in the field of substance-abuse treatment. “They’re mad as far as the poverty, mad as far as the jobs, the food desert, the way they’re being treated by the police officers, black-on-black crimes, the drug infestation...... "Racism is still alive, and they’re feeling it. They’re angry. Some of them don’t even know what they’re angry about.”

Where are all the white people?

Clearly, white people are the problem like Obama says.

Well as I see it...when the police have their hands tied ,as we have clearly seen here tonight, then I sure wouldn’t count on them if it were to come to my town.

I have to say....As a police officer I would be more than happy not to engage with these people who turn around and cry police brutality at a drop of a hat....I’ve heard them yell and scream while being arrested “I can’t breath” several times...and also distort their bodies so they will get injured and can sure thereafter.
