BALTIMORE —Baltimore City police announced Monday morning that there is a credible threat against law enforcement officers.
A police statement said: "The Criminal Intelligence Unit received credible information that members of various gangs including the Black Guerilla Family, Bloods, and Crips have entered into a partnership to 'take out' law enforcement officers."
Agreed. What is destroying the public's faith in cops is the fairly obvious "us against them" attitude. My blue brothers right or wrong.
What we need is an attitude among cops that a bad cop is not my brother. No idea how to create that attitude.
Where is the “Right to Destroy” in our Constitution?
This mayor should be impeached or, if she has any integrity, resign.
SPACE TO DESTROY! That one will go down as one of the dumbest statements ever made by a politician. Only “I plan to lead from behind” can top it. SHEESH!
It’s not just the cops with an “Us vs Them” attitude. Who goes around saying “Snitches get Stitches”?
The black genitalia family and the craps......
Yeah, but we aren’t paying the gangs.
And the cop attitude I mentioned is not cops vs. gangs, which I could understand. It’s cops vs. anybody not a cop. Protect your brothers at all costs, even if it means perjuring yourself.
And, yes, I do believe the us vs. them attitude is a problem no matter who holds it. My “brothers” are those who try to do what’s right, not those I share skin color with.
True, “elections have consequences” but it is hard for me to sit at my computer or watch TV and see this going on. If it comes to the Sunshine State, we better be prepared.
My take on this is that, although we are far removed from downtown Baltimore, it is our fellow countrymen under attack by mobs, incited by an elected official, who one day will be in our backyards.
Obama was elected, by well meaning whites, to help end the ‘race problem’ in America. Now groups of ‘teens’ (and others funded by Democrat Organizations) are burning cars and businesses.......Charles Manson must be dancing a jig. His race war predictions have come to fruition under the first Black pResident.
The police lives are being threatened. They should be able to return fire.
You know...
As I watch this Freak Show unfold... Yeats comes to mind.
The center, indeed, does not hold.
The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.
I dunno... ya’ll tell me.
Sounds like the beginnings of a violent overthrow of established government.
I’m catching flack from some freepers for calling it as I see it. so you left “those in complete denial forever” out
It happens, brother. Don’t let it get to you.
I’m trying so hard not to be that freeper that says “go to democratic underground” to them lol.
Nah, you don’t want to do that, brother.
One Team, One Fight... they just disagree, is all.
Game cancelled in Baltimore....
I wondered when they would get around to cancelling the game
