Violence and looting overtook much of West Baltimore on Monday, seriously injuring several police officers and leaving a store and several vehicles in flames..
At least seven police officers were injured in a clash that began near Mondawmin Mall and spread toward downtown. One officer was unresponsive and others suffered broken bones, police spokesman Capt. Eric Kowalczyk said.

The National Guard has been activated in Baltimore.
This is with rocks and bottles.
The Powers That Be expect to control AMERICA, with her civilian GUNS?
HHHHAHAHHAHHHAHAHHHAHHA
Copy cat protests ?
Why hasn’t this newspaper called for deployment of National Guard and/or
State Troopers to restore law and order?
I saw that live. A masked coward with what looked like a box cutter jumped forward (no police protecting the firemen or the hoses) and put huge gashes in the hose. No one did anything.
The National Guard has been activated. Maryland State Police are there... along with other jurisdictions as far away as Montgomery County. Prince George county pd is there, too... for any Marylander, that in itself tells you how this is way out of hand.

In times like this, with violence like this, Nixon gets elected.
Send in a Texas Ranger. One RIOT, One RANGER!
And Nixon was a centrist Democrat compared to Cruz and Reagan...
