Baltimore Breaks Down

A black man named Freddie Gray died after an encounter with Baltimore police. What exactly happened to Gray is in dispute. What is not in dispute is that Gray is dead. If Baltimore police used excessive force or violated Gray's civil rights, with a black mayor, a black attorney general of the United States, and the first black US President, do you not think the death of Gray will be thoroughly investigated? The mayor of Baltimore abdicated her duty by giving those rioting over Gray's death "space to destroy". If you want society to disintegrate in a hurry, have a few more political leaders allow protesters to run riot. When the honest citizen sees lawful authority will no longer protect him and his property, he must protect himself. Law is then replaced with vigilantism.
