I am sick & tired of seeing police cars & other public property, paid for by taxpayers, being destroyed by young ****s who never had a job or paid taxes. Damn!

no kidding? the th word is now bleeped out?
well, I cannot call them fine, upstanding citizens.

I know, NoZme.....I've seen that word bleeped out here recently - I can't think of a more fitting description of them, though!

That's an interesting technique, 'police marking them in paint' says the reporter in his two piece suit.

Using a crowbar, they opened up the trunk of the police car. Can only imagine what was being kept back there..

Again where is national guard?
Earlier CNN was downplaying the riot scene by saying just "teenagers"

The Mayor of Baltimore is trying to walk back the outrageous statement that she made yesterday about giving those who "wish to destroy" the space to do so.

This is not like the protests of the 60's for basic rightsand it angers me when it is being portrayed as such.

Me too. I feel like this is gang violence wholly unrelated to anything else. This is anarchy, not civil rights protesting, and I really hope media remembers that and doesn't try to correlate the two!

They police kept spectators at Camden Yards inside of stadium until the protest (riot) was under control on saturday night.The ball park is big money maker for Baltimore.

She can't walk that back and words have consequences.
