No really. There is this new product I saw on a commercial on late night Fox News called the "Spine Severer". It hurts less than other spine severers and is guaranteed to give "Yo family" the biggest payback.
I worked in the criminal justice field for 25 years. People's lifestyle choices definitely play a role in what happens to them. If you choose to be a criminal, and victimize others, don't be surprised when you're caught by the cops, or victimized yourself by another criminal. The greater number of illegal activities you participate in, increases your chances of something going wrong. People who associate with bad folk don't usually have good lives either. If you don't want to end up being a victim, don't participate in activities, or associate with people that could put you in the position of becoming one. The old saying, "If you lay down with dogs, you wake up with fleas" comes to mind.
Yes, people who smoke jeopardize their health. I know, because three of my family members died from lung cancer. Two other siblings died of heart attack and stroke. I'm the baby of the family, and the only one left, and I'm the only one that never smoked. That doesn't mean I won't get cancer of some sort down the road. I'm going to die of something one of these days, but I doubt it will be caused by the company I keep, or from any illegal activities.
The need for additional restraints contradicts the claim you make that there was no resistance, but believe what you will.
Yes, yes, its all about the guy, who they still haven’t even offered a reason for the arrest, cops have been suspended and aren’t talking, and the police chief himself admits the officers violated policy with the suspect! But yes, the dead man is the one in the wrong, because you know, he was a thug, and deserved it.... What idiotic nonsense. How about you actually go read what the actual police chief has already admitted to regarding this incident.
Absolutely unbelievable how completely ignorant some folks on here are. The attempts at moral justification for this by some folks is insane. Everyone with a few neurons firing should be adamant that the truth be found out, instead some are twisting themselves into knots trying to make the “he deserved it” argument.
Just a little reading.... maybe you’ll learn something, but I highly doubt it. The police Chief is openly admitting they did not do what they should have done, multiple times, and yet you and others want to try to argue he got what he deserved... idiotic.
At a news conference Friday at police headquarters, Commissioner Anthony W. Batts said protesters have a right to speak out, but he urged them to remain nonviolent. He also provided an update on the investigation, saying that officers violated department policies while Gray was in their custody.
Police said Gray, who was dragged by officers to a transport wagon, should have gotten immediate medical attention. Batts said the department is investigating whether Gray’s injuries resulted from his arrest or a “rough ride” — in which police vans are driven erratically to harm unbuckled, handcuffed detainees. Batts said Gray could have sustained injuries during arrest and transport.
“We know he was not buckled in the transportation wagon as he should have been. No excuses from me. Period,” Batts said. “We know our police employees failed to get him medical attention in a timely manner multiple times.”
That is what I remember from the video also. I wonder if there was an arrest video.
I believe that there was another arrestee (?) that was also picked up. Same van.
you requested further video, here you go... this shows at the 2:23 mark that after he was dragged and supposedly unable to use his legs, he wound up standing on the back of the van and cursing at the cops, just before he bent his head and walked forward into the van.

Thank you for posting this history, very informative...
By the way, this video shows him clearly standing on his own two legs cursing at the police at the 2:23 mark... then he bent over and walked forward into the back of the van. And this was after all the video showing him limp-legged and supposedly paralyzed according to the left-wingers.

Well, I doubt we’ll hear from the usual cop-haters here.
What criteria do you use when defining a “cop hater”?
According to a single blog, citing unnamed sources. OK, then.
Well, we're already hearing from the usual boot-lickers here, so....
Good grief! So this is the fault of Obamacare? No doubt his new insurance paid for the surgery :)

Yes, and if you look at the court record at the link...it looks more like Freddie Gray is the defendant and the Peachtree financial company was probably a debt collector for Allstate. They were likely trying to get a structured resettlement from Freddie on behalf of Allstate.
Story at link stinks.

Thanks, 2ndDivisionVet.
Someone who thinks a thug deserves daisy-and-unicorn treatment. Sorry, I spent most of my adult life on the edge of inner cities and long ago lost my feel-good vibes towards black predators and thieves.
And I just watched the portion of the video released which the dopey newsreader called “disturbing.” Didn’t even look rough to me.
Well...Well...Well.
My apologies for posting to the wrong thread.
Aren’t you thankful that they were not around in 1775-81. If they were, we would still be under British rule. But on second thought, they might have helped. It would have been difficult for the British to fight when they were swarmed by bootlickers wanting to lick their boots.
