Baltimore police have continually said their initial reasoning for suspecting Freddie Gray of suspicious activity was his immediate running from police

Does the above meet the threshold of "probable cause" for a known drug felon on parole? I suspect it does.

(This is not directed at you, IamConservative)

Parole is a “gift” granted to the parolee for (what is supposed to be) good behavior in prison or other related things.

Being “free” on parole doesn’t make you equal to other citizens as if you had served your sentence and were released. Quite the opposite. You are allowed to be among your fellow citizens on strict conditions because you did not serve all of your sentence.

One of those conditions is that you obey the law and allow yourself to be searched pretty much at any time by an officer of the law.

Seems like Freddy was destined for incarceration - whether the cops caught him then, or later.
