Baltimore Violence

On April 12^th, Freddie Gray was arrested for something that the Baltimore police haven’t said yet. He was but in the back of one of those giant squad cars and somehow suffered a spinal cord injury during all of this. The Baltimore police also still hasn’t released yet what exactly what happened, but this injury he got caused him to die a week later. He’s funeral was today and people decided to result violently to it. So far seven police officers have got seriously injured and many police cars have been damaged. The mayor has instituted a curfew that goes from 10 PM to 5 AM every day for the next week starting tomorrow, which we all know many people won’t follow.

I honestly think that it’s ok for all of those people to be violent towards the police because they kill so many innocent people every year that I think people should fight back. How are we supposed to feel safe if the people that are supposed to protect us kill tons of people every year? This case for example they won’t tell us what he was arrested for or how he got that fatal injury. It’s so obvious that they are hiding something and I think its ok for the people to do something about it. Honestly if I was an adult in Baltimore right now, I would go watch the protests and would be for them. Now, I would never injure a police officer or burn their car, but I would still participate in peaceful protests.
