Yes there are many more whites than blacks. That population 6-to-1 number belie the facts of crime rates vis-a-vis white and black. See FBI homicide data (below) and NIBRS data at link.

Once these cops start defending themselves on court, it's going to get ugly. It's not going to be a slam dunk conviction that the prosecutor is claiming now. There's already all sorts of reasonable doubt. I know there are all sorts of ways to murder someone, but to drive them around in the back of a van is not one o them. Negligent homicide, maybe. But overcharging can lead to an acquittal.
Yep. That’s how low we’ve fallen since Ken Starr did his thing. Snakehead now stands out as one of the most honest and decent liberals still active above ground.
“Meanwhile we put our little kids on school buses every morning that don’t have seat belts. “
School bus drivers don’t intentionally injure the children by driving erratically, nor are the children’s hands bound behind them.
Some police officers are abusing their power with whites, too. It is not just blacks and in the cities. Some have a real attitude/police culture problem.
... Most likely theyll win against that charge. A reasonable mistake isnt a violation of the law.
Especially if the suspect flees when they're trying to investigate whether or not the knife is legal.
By the way, did they ever even officially arrest him, or did they take him to the hospital before booking him?
That’s not the point.
The Point is atleast 3 of the Arresting Cops were white. from the picture I saw. One Dressed in Blue, two others I presume were Cops on bikes wearing Yellow Shirts.
Baltimore is gonna get some Street Just Us. Gonna be a public lynching of some Crackahs.
did they charge them within 48 hours?
Isn’t that why they let half the rioters they arrested go free?
pot holes
start arresting the street department staff
Start with Da Mayor, who allowed it to happen on her watch.
They blamed Rudy for Amadou Diallo, why should this mayor skate?
This will be THE case that every Black from now on uses as
justification for their Racist rants of abuse, discrimination, illegal arrests etc.
Valarie Jarrett and Nero are pulling the Strings here. Their Spokesman, Al Sharpton will be speaking on their behalf.
I think most of the charges are relatively minor. The biggest one is the 2nd degree murder charge on Caesar Goodson. Haven’t seen his mug shot yet. I have a hunch he’s not a crackah!
Okay. Perps are handcuffed on their rides. Five, six and seven-year-olds are not.
Never mind the fact that uncuffed kids in their parents cars that also have handgrips and padded seats are required to be seat belted.
Yet you would charge the driver-cop with manslaughter and you wouldn't charge the school bus driver and the parent who puts their kids on the bus?
Yes, I heard about some of that.
However, I don’t see how Gray’s jail time will matter in court. This particular arrest is reportedly without cause. He was apparently arrested by sight of him, without warrant. The leaks and stories keep changing.
This looks bad for the cops because there is an appalling and total lack of evidence that supports their account, so far. No cameras in the van. Film shows what looks like to me anyway, as agony for Gray in the scuffle during arrest. This before he was even inside the van.
What happened inside the van sounds worse. The arresting cops may not have even realized he was seriously injured, maybe, maybe, they thought he was pretending. They said it was rage. Didn’t look like rage to me. He appeared to be agonized.
Who is really surprised the charges have been brought on these cops? Holding true to form, the gubmint is not letting a good crisis go to waste and needed scape goats now that it is suspected that Gray might have tried to injure himself in that van. There may be at least ONE cop that could have (I did NOT say did) caused his fatal injury but I doubt all six, some of who never even touched Gray, should have charges against them. Guess this next “circus trial” will surface some good cops and some bad. Get out the popcorn.
“By the way, did they ever even officially arrest him, or did they take him to the hospital before booking him?”
He never made it to booking. He was paralyzed and unresponsive and was taken to the hospital.
America is rapidly moving from a soft tyranny to a a hard tyranny.
Riots around the country are encouraged by Obama and his army of community organizers, including Sharpton & Jackson.
“Murder requires intent.”
_____________
Extreme recklessness can satisfy the intent element.
“Show trials”
Pretty much.
It’s an exact repeat of what was done 24 years ago with the R King case.
In both cases they filed charges they knew the evidence didn’t support.
Don’t be surprised if, just like the R King case, the trial is moved to a predominately white area so when the police are found not guilty they can claim racism is the reason.
