I don't see blacks making the Baltimore case a black vs white issue

If the Police assault one single person, it's wrong. Police are there to serve and PROTECT. This is distinct from black on black violence.

Baltimore PD has had a long history of brutal, unjust, illegal assaults. The city has paid millions over the last years settling many egregious cases.

There is good reason that the black community should fear being stopped by a cop in Baltimore. Fear leads to anger

To protect and serve the rich.

Let me axe you a question wrote:

I wonder how many of the animals(rioters) are on welfare, food stamps etc?

While White America feeds and shelters them, they loot and burn....What a depraved people....

What could possibly make you conclude this?

Can't wait for those kids to grow up and be contributing members of society.

Killing is never acceptable but neither is stealing. Laws are only for law obeying people regardless of color. You can try to make excuses for others but the law is the law. You run from the cops you get what you get and hopefully no one else gets hurt.

White cops need to stop killing black people. And more white people need to do something other than complain when riots take place. White people don't care until it hits close to home.

I got a question? They keep saying Baltimore is STILL in bad shape from the 1968 Baltimore riots, and I have heard Miami Detroit and MANY other cities are still in bad shape from riots 30-50 YEARS ago.

There is a famous picture of Hiroshima and Nagasaki AND Detroit from 1945, and then a fairly recent picture (2012-2014) of the 3 cities and on the more recent picture it says guess who won the war?

Why were the Japanese cities able to rebuild to great looking modern cities, while Detroit looks like a sh--hole?

We are much richer as a country than Japan.

American are a lot smarter than the people in Japan.

Americans are harder working and more disciplined than Japan.

Based on these facts why do Japanese cities look and are in much better shape and their cities are much cleaner than ours? Example when I watched the Tokyo Marathon I did not see any graffiti on any of the buildings or any litter anywhere, also I did not see any security gates/chains in front of doors

And in pictures in magazines/books in crowded parts of the city, the houses don't have bars that make it look like a jail cell, I have written letters to politicians for years asking them to ban chain security gates in front of stores and bars in front of windows of houses because it makes the cities look crappy and demand businesses get rid of graffiti on their store walls and on sidewalks.

I want us to have the cleanest, best looking cities.

There is no way Americans are more disciplined than Japanese people. If they are smarter that is debatable. Yes America is richer but the collective will to share wealth is not part of American culture. Look at the ass clowns that post on this site and talk about welfare, food stamps etc.

This is why you don't post when you're drunk, kids.

We can use Baltimore as a perfect example of post industrial decline. Baltimore was built on the steel industry, shipping, the railroads, and shipbuilding.

The steel and shipbuilding industries, due to many factors (decreased labor costs, job actions by unions, lax overseas environmental standards) left for Asian countries in the 1970s.

Shipping switched to containerization, which isn't profitable on a large scale in Baltimore (takes ships a long time to get up the Chesapeake). And you don't need railroads if you're not shipping as many goods. CSX is still big in Baltimore, but it's nothing like it was.

So now you're left with a substantial part of the population that is no longer needed. There are barely any manufacturing/labor jobs available across the rust belt. Is it folly to not have a more diverse economy? Of course, but when things were good in Baltimore (and Detroit, and Cleveland, and Buffalo, etc.) they were really good.

The question now: what do we do with the workers who are no longer needed in the present day economy?

Easy. Just grant amnesty to more labor that will work for even less. Problem solved.

(1) American are a lot smarter than the people in Japan.

(2) Americans are harder working and more disciplined than Japan...

(1) Americans are smarter than Japanese? Do you have some proof of this?

WTF?

Washington Post(liberal paper) just reported that Freddie gray deliberately injured himself in the back of the paddy wagon....There was another prisoner in the van with him who said he heard him smashing himself into the walls while the van was underway....Ignorant thugs wreck a fine city and injure people over nothing....

When this was first reported tonight I expressed doubt. My wife who is an ER nurse said she has people who were arrested in the ER all the time who hurt themselves. Baltimore will blow up if these cops are let off. We are in for a long hot summer.

Yeah I used to toss my discus on the track all the time, and every runner who got hit always pretended they were hurt. I realized they were just stupid and kept doing the same thing. For some strange reason none of them run on the track anymore, guess they learned their lesson.

Japan has a wealthier middle-class, a culture of obedience and no guns.

3-0 to Japan.

If you're going to justify "white privilege" you have to include the full history of white people in the United States. There is a lot of good and a lot of bad. Most of the bad was inflicted on non-white peoples. Near total genocide of native americans coupled with generation upon generation of crimes inflicted on african americans. You tidily sweep both under the rug and take the lazy layup and call it all a net positive. Why? Because you don't want to feel bad? Pure weakness. Having pride in your fore bearers and acknowledging historical fact aren't mutually exclusive notions.

I don't understand why the police don't just use rubber bullets, tasers and truncheons en masse.

America is wrecked.

Thanks Obama.

Baltimore, like all libtard run cities are the victims of failed demorat libtard policies. Evident.

I heard on a news magazine show eons ago that the Koreans had a nick-name for the Japanese: "the lazy people."

Kind of ironic.

This country is a mess for a myriad of reasons. I'm not pro Obama, I will say this, he's done nothing to hold any of the "banksters" responsible for the economic and banking collapse of 2008 etc., while he and his gov't have prosecuted and fined other industries for breaking financial laws...

Look what Iceland did to their criminal bankers. They're in jail.

CNN, FOC and CNBC trying to get things fired up...

They need the news

A couple of their kids need braces

They HAVE to get things provoked between the law and the protestors.

The journalists know that if they can't get some people hurt tonight there will be nothing to film and then they will have to go back to trying to get american kids killed in the middle east with their continual "Do we need boots on the ground"???!!!

They could incorporate that into this episode if they really try.

You missed something they don't have that we do.

That something has a high crime, fatherless family, and incarceration rate.

Japan also had the filthiest most violent towards women porn, and many other unsavory, disgusting "traditions" in pockets of their societies. Read up. (One of the reasons, I read in an article, that Japanese men hate women so much, is in some pockets of society their is/was a tradition of the mother's "masturbating" the male babies penises all the way through puberty -- and then the males hate both their mothers and women, while feeling shamed, yet loyal to their mothers. Pretty twisted.

Yes, there are great pockets of Japanese culture too. But, let's not paint with too wide a brush.
