Freddie Gray demonstration(s) 2015-09-10: Change of venue hearing
Why racism no longer matters to me
The last straw for certain things came with a Baltimore Sun front page banner headline:
Skepticism, despair as killings continue
Residents question city response; Four day death toll stands at 12.
I anticipate no response from Julia Craven, Jenee Desmond-Harris, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Stacey Patton, or Brittney Cooper.[*]
What was the last straw?
In short, it’s time for me to stop concerning myself with racism and race.
“Black lives matter” must be an inside job
Immigration issues
The disappearance of the Lyon sisters
Boy murdered over birthday cake
The murder of Terron Singleton
This teen won’t go to prison, even after he hacked 50,700 computers
Balto. police commissioner fired
This rose from the 2015 Freddie Gray riots.
Baltimore Mayor Rawlings-Blake fires Police Commissioner Anthony W. Batts
I don’t like this. But I am best to “accept the things I cannot change.”
I have supported both Commissioner Batts and the mayor in everything they’ve done so far. An possible exception: in hindsight, it may have been unwise to shut down the subway Monday afternoon, April 26, as this rendered high school students at Mondawmin Mall unable to leave the area.
I have not studied the various calls for Batts’ resignation, but note that they come from many different directions. That doesn’t, in itself, give any of them merit.
The F.O.P. does not currently appear to me to be a friend of the people.
