I have the same way. It feels too planned. I have also wondered who began it. And I have my own theory.
Does yours have anything to do with foreign connections?

I just don't get this mayor
We will have a curfew - starting tomorrow night. Huh? So what that says is "ya'll have tonite to do whatever ya'll want - but tomorrow nite you better get your butts inside?"
Oh - and she most certainly did say that "we will give space for those who want to destroy". Video tape is a wonderful thing. I just can't believe she just keeps saying she did not say that.
The money trail could easily lead that way and we are probably on the same thought path. Just something eerie about these gang rivals teaming up.
Do they really think that the rioters are checking the BPD twitter and facebook? :sigh:
Oddly enough, many of the protesters did that in Ferguson protests. They checked the PD twitter page to see what was up since the PD sometimes posted updates and stuff. It was very strange. lol

Clearly I am just not familiar enough with rioters.
Stealing toilet paper and baby formula... and checking the police department updates. :facepalm:

I just can't understand why the police are doing nothing .. are they afraid of provoking more violence? Do they think the criminal rioters will get bored of it all and go home if they don't react? WTF!!

Yeah that is kinda what I was talking about.I have my own theory. I wouldn't be surprised if ISIS is somehow involved (pure speculation on my part). This is based on the fact that the Nation of Islam is part of this new Crips, Blood, BGF alliance. The Nation of Islam is connected to the Muslim Brotherhood which in turn is connected to ISIS. We have seen how ISIS have expanded their influence across the middle east and Africa by forming alliances with former foes, e.g. Al Nusra Front (Al Qaeda in Syria) Boko Haram in Somalia. ISIS is even rumored to be partnered with the Mexican drug cartels. If ISIS wants to gain a foothold in America I could see them recruiting members from inner city gangs.
There is no way I could sleep... or do anything but watch out the window constantly.
I think I would probably leave town if anything like this happened here.
We had one police shooting but it was pretty clear no rioting would result.
If I thought there was a chance of it? I would be on the first plane out of there. :twocents:
They were outnumbered, the inital crowd was young. There was no way they could stop what was happening.
If they shot someone or even appeared to shoot someone it would have been much worse because the rioters would have brought out their guns. And like I said, they were out numbered. If they had used rubber bullets same result. There were too many to taze. They could have used teargas. But when they did use it it only slowed the crowd down, it didn't stop them. Those caught in teargas just dropped back and others took their place. So the best they could do was to try to contain them in one area and hopefully protect innocents. They lost property yes. But so far no lives.
A better question why they stood so long alone? Why weren't they given backup and support sooner? Why wasn't NG called in sooner?
And IMO we are very lucky that they held without shooting. IMO if they had taken a life there would have been rioting in other cities "in support" of Baltimore.
The cops were in a total LOSE/LOSE situation, imo. If they tried to strong arm the protesters it could have sparked a full scale shoot out with the civilians. Many of them were teens. Can you imagine what would have happened if they shot a teenager right about now? Full scale chaos and deadly mayhem would ensue.
