A crisis mediation group plans to open up several sites around Baltimore after the verdict is announced in the first trial of a police officer charged in Freddie Gray's arrest and death.
Changa Onyango, director of Community Mediation Baltimore, said he has about 75 mediators in the city who plan to set up sites indoors where people can come and express their opinions safely. He said the "emotional energy" of people gathering outside in West Baltimore in April contributed to sparking the riots. His team is going over several options to help people express themselves, including setting up open mics.
Having people gather outside, "just made some of the trouble that happened inevitable," he said. "The whole point is to keep them from being outside."

Off the top of my head I was thinking of the coldest city in the US. I have heard the name Caribou, ME mentioned many times as the winner of that honor. For some reason Lewiston popped into my head and my fingers followed along with that train of thought.
Since Eagle Lake is slightly further north than Caribou it should be a better location for a Sheriff Joe Arpaio style tent camp for the next 6 months.

That’s unfortunate for whatever liberal sh*thole you live in. The last Holder goons who tried rioting got 10 to 30 years in state prison in my state. Maybe you ought to think about moving.
I’m in MA and there have been no riots and only a few tepid protests.
The PC madness in the colleges,the insanity of sex “identity”, the erasing of anything Christan, and the long time support of people who can’t bother working are things that drive me nuts.
No moving is in the cards for me.

At least have an exit plan to get out of Dodge in case TSHF. You’re more than welcome to move down south. We are armed and ready.
I wonder what will be discussed, planned, or organized in these ‘mediation group’ sites? They’re not going to be there to let out emotion. No, they’re going to be there to plan racially motivated action.

Well aren’t you nice.
