A large group of protesters and police in riot gear clashed near Mondawmin Mall on Monday afternoon, while the University of Maryland, Baltimore, and numerous downtown businesses closed early out of fears of violence.
Police responded with shields and a tactical vehicle as they were pelted with rocks and bottles. Unconfirmed reports state that 2 Officers were seen being evacuated from the scene with apparent head injuries.
According to widely circulated flier, a high school “purge” was to take place at 3 p.m., starting at Mondawmin Mall and ending downtown. Such memes have been known to circulate regularly among city school students, based on a film “The Purge,” about what would happen if all laws were suspended.
The Baltimore Police Department had received information that a number of Baltimore area gangs have joined forces to “take out” officers.
According to a press release from the Baltimore Police department, members of the Black Guerilla Family, Bloods and Crips have partnered to harm law enforcement officials.
Police are taking this as a credible threat.

So, according to Ms. Melissa Mark-Viverito and the Reverend Al Sharpton, these Obama voters seen in the video’s, would be committing “low level” crimes and just let it be.
One can only give the Baltimore Police the same advice N Obama Esq gives the Israelis: exercise restraint. As the President and members of his Government never tire of telling the Israelis, we have every sympathy with your predicament but answering violence with further violence is not the answer. These are civil disturbances and need civilian police methods. Stones and rocks are not weapons of war.
These are fine upstanding citizens of color in the streets. I don’t see even one relieving himself in public. Why are the racist Police hunting them down like animals? I’ll give you a clue: because they are behaving like animals.
#3: Please don’t degrade animals by comparing the creatures in Baltimore to them. I’ve known a number of animals for whom I’ve had great affection and respect, and who’ve been very civilized in their behavior. The Baltimore creatures aren’t good enough to be animals.
Why does everyone need to see a injured person coveted in blood?
