    I would have the streets cleared in an hour.....place a couple job fairs at major intersections and any one on the street will be giving a job !! Watch how fast they would run.....

    I was talking about why they were allowing the rioting to happen.

    It takes a little longer than a week to conduct a investigation. Especially in a situation like this when they wanna make sure everything is accurate. So no people could care less about a investigation, people are pissed because some video popped up that,showed the last 30 seconds of whole thing and now everyone is Judge Judy.

    It doesn't matter anyway, none of these people care or have anything invested into the outcome other than its a reason to attack cops as steal crap.

    I still don't understand why they cant shoot them right in the streets with rubber bullets, bean bags or something else that will get their attention while they are burning, fighting and destroying property in front of the police.

    Out of all of this, the part that really got to me was when I heard they are cutting fire hoses that are trying to put out fires that they caused, after they robbed the places. Ridiculous.

    forget the bean bags and pepper balls. They should be shooting bullets at those thugs. A rock or brick is a deadly weapon and anyone throwing them should be shot.

    My neighbor poked his head out the door last night as I was on the deck and said "Did you hear there's a sale going on at Mondawmin Mall. All you can carry." Whats most sad is while it was kids who really instigated it yesterday, it was their parents flocking to the mall to get some free stuff.

    They have been doing this to a small degree. Basically just to protect the firefighters and EMTs while they put out the fires. It needed to be handled much for forcibly last night and all of the police officers are saying they never got the order from the wonderful mayor.

    I really have no words for this situation... They cut a fire hose so they couldn't put out the fire. WHO FIGHTS THE ****ING FIRE DEPARTMENT?!?!

    There's a significant level of inhumanity with this situation... I just do not get it.

    That Mayor should be canned, she is in way over her head and is lying and blaming everyone else for what is happening. Hopefully the Governor takes it over and peace can be restored if there was any peace in the Baltimore hood.

    I just heard the President place blame it on the media for not covering the peaceful protest and that there was only a hand full of rioters not once but twice. This guy is a piece of work between the mayor and Obummer I surprised the city is even standing at all.

    I know right. Deviant behavior! Yet they holler they are Oppressed and Black Lives don't matter. I will BET my paycheck ALL of them are DEMOCRATS! This Dumb @ss Behavior is typical of people that feel like they are "Entitled" to things they didn't work for.

    These riots are such sad times for America.
    With that said there's only one way to deal with people that act like that.
