We gave them space to destroy...

[Auburnfan91 1,407]

Um ok sure. I missed the part where she moonlights as police chief as well.

So you're ok with what she said? You only take issue with people like me who have an issue with what she said?

Do you honestly think he will ever hold a black liberal to ANY accountability on anything? I dont. Its just not the way he rolls. She said to "give people space who wish to destroy stuff" and they did. End of story.

[cole256 17,043]

What did she say. (Really say)

[AURaptor 1,122]

As for the mayor's initial remarks, I can get that she MEANT to say 1 thing, but what she ACTUALLY said, came out completely different.

At least, I can give her that much. Whether she really said what she meant to say, and realized later it was incredibly stupid, or she just misspoke, we may never know.

Her follow up attempt to explain herself only made matters worse. She tried to claim she NEVER said what has clearly been caught on record. She said it. Maybe didn't mean it , but add to the fact that she's being called out by the GOVERNOR of the state, and others, in how poorly she's handled this matter, it's clear to me that she's in the wrong job. The chair is too big for her to sit in.

And only people like you really believe she meant to give people space so they could destroy stuff. I am rational and still have a brain that isn't filled with ideological hate. Ok? Son.

I can only interpret her words which were clear. Im not in her head and my bet is, neither are you, so stop assuming you know what she meant. She clearly said to give space to people who wish to destroy. If she didn't mean that she should not have said that. I fail to see where ideology or hate factor into understanding the meaning of her quite simple words

[DKW 86 7,419]

USN, If you are telling grown folks that what she CLEARLY said isnt what she meant to say, I can buy that. She obviously and clearly said that they gave the rioters "room to destroy stuff." If you can hear her DENY that she said that, not deny she mis-spoke but that she NEVER SAID IT, then Brother, i am just never gonna listen to you ever again. You have drunk way too much kool-aid. i got huge problems with that and your credibility.

She may well have mis-spoke. That is not what she is claiming however. She is claiming that she NEVER SAID WHAT SHE CLEARLY DID SAY.

If you are buying that hogwash, well i will just add you to the ignore feature.

What part of that was worthy of death by a bunch of thug officers in the back of a van?

No courtroom, no judge, no trial, no defense.

who said it was worthy of death?

Gray was killed. He was not a harm to anyone. He was a petty criminal and nothing more.

Was he a great guy or a role model? Hell no. But he didnt deserve to die. Dragging his record up serves no purpose and proves nothing. All it does is muddy the clarity at what happened there that day..

clarity? Are you serious? Did you actually see the whole rap sheet? Assault,burglary and he is no harm? He was a carrer criminal that could not learn a lesson and should have been locked up anyway. Besides this whole forum serves no purpose, if we are going to discuss a topic all info is on the table. And the reason i "dragged" it out is to counter the insinuation that he should not have been pursued. I dont know how he got killed. We do know what led to it. He saw cops and bolted. He was a dope dealer.

Liberalism is steeped in permissiveness. Hell they have so little regard for the law they constantly make law enforcement the bad guys.

My thoughts on the matter. After watching her in several interviews/news conferences, I don't think she excels when the camera lights come on. She said what she said, but I'm not convinced it is what she meant. Appears to me she struggles with thoughts and words in this environment. Now obviously, I don't know her heart, but I take her at her word when she states what she meant to say. After all, she has called those rioting thugs. Hardly the words of one supports such actions. Hope I'm right!

I guess you could think that...but given that her actions actually matched her words it doesn't seem reasonable to assume it.

[cooltigger21 0]

Even assuming she didn't mean it the way it sounded, it's still stupid. You can't hold the police back and let these people build up a head of steam like that. Once they really get wound up its hard to stop. She waited a full day before calling for assistance from the state. I think part of it was planned and then it just snowballed from there.

[WarTim 3,456]

Liberal dems have been in control of Baltimore for many DECADES. The economic opportunities in traditionally poor areas must be addressed. Re-electing Libs over and over assures the problems will continue. These people need jobs and hope.......The lack of leadership is the cause of the desperation and lawlessness.....

These people keep electing the same stale folks with the same stale ideas for decades.

"There is no excuse for monsters who attack innocent people, loot and destroy private property. President Obama said those who committed violence in Baltimore this week are “criminals” and “thugs.” He’s right.

But the tragic chain of events in Baltimore did not happen in a vacuum. Police brutalizing and killing the people they’re paid to protect does happen—particularly if you’re black—and more frequently than most would, or should, be comfortable with.

The anguish in Baltimore this week in the wake of the riots is real.

So is the rage. And it didn’t start this week."

Since police officers nation wide actually kill more white people than they do black people should we all just burn the country down?
