Maybe just regular racist Republicans made it up. After hearing Hannity I believe these Fascists would say anything to incite violence or maybe even a race war.

But, yes, I find the gang members actually more believable than the police. The police are constantly lying.

I too find these kids most credible about the events.
police seem to have a pattern of "self-victimization" to garner and hold public support for them.
Hopefully, those days of "automatic" police credibility are waning.
I know it is around here.
When my household heard the police claims...they all responded in Disbelief this time. We know, now, more than ever...M$M feeds us bs 24/7/365. So even tho, we're "seeing it with our own eyes" on the tv machine we also now Know..it's mostly all staged and their reporting is scripted to try to get us to focus on other things, elsewhere.
One thing I noted missing from M$M "reporting" are the number of injuries to Protesters and even the "rioters"...so far I've only heard about reported injuries to police. As if we'll automatically defer credibility to the "poor police" without first being fully informed?

Who knows who made Baltimore look like it did burning?

I've heard from these young men… I've also heard from the right wing asshole governor as it was burning…

I have more respect for these leaders, because at least they are showing leadership in what they sense to be happing.

I wonder what is being purposely manipulated in Baltimore?

I never did believe there was a "credible threat" that gangs had a pact to kill police over the incident.

My guess is either Fox News made it up or God told some right wing nut there was a plot by the gangs.
