Today President Obama addressed the state of emergency in Baltimore Maryland, calling the violent reactions “counter-productive.”

Question:  How many is a “handful”?
 

As Baltimore Burns the media begins the blame game. Last night pressing the Maryland Governor on why it took so long for the Maryland National Guard to be activated Governor Larry Hogan cuts right to the chase: “Within 30 seconds of receiving the call, I activated the National Guard”.
The delay stems from Baltimore Mayor Rawlings-Blake refusing to ask for assistance, and refusing to return phone calls from the Governors office. Start watching the video at 09:00 to see delivery:

Governor Hogan is a Republican, Mayor Rawlings is a far-left liberal Democrat.
After Governor Hogan arrived in Baltimore, CNN pundit Don Lemon tried to pin the blame on him in an effort to protect the more liberal Mayor Rawlings from her own ineptitude. Again Governor Hogan was having none of it. (more…)

Baltimore police are warning that there is a “credible threat” to “take-out” law enforcement officers, according to a press release from the Baltimore Police Department. The Black Guerilla Family is the same group who put out the call to assassinate police in New York City resulting in the death of NYPD officer Rafael Ramos and Officer Wenjian Liu.

The Black Guerilla Family group, formed in the 1960s in the California prison system, recently surfaced on the East Coast and Maryland, where members are at the heart of a drug-trafficking and corruption probe within the Baltimore prison system. (more…)

Several videos captured the events of yesterday:

It was inevitable.  On the same night the White House correspondents dinner took place – Baltimore Maryland began riots on behalf of Freddie Gray (note the sponsors):

The beacon signal was activated: National Action Network (NAN), National Association For The Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), Nation of Islam (NoI), New Black Panther Party (NBPP), AME Church Network and all their leadership responded.  Buses were brought in from around the region to supply hundreds of foot soldiers for the marches and protests.

Then comes the Ferguson Protesters, Madison groups and professional grievance advocates from around the country arriving en masse.

CNN continues the drumbeat against police in Baltimore Maryland regarding the death of Freddie Gray. Today the Baltimore police chief held a lengthy press conference. The police chief, the mayor and the local community leaders are under exceptional pressure as the professionally aggrieved advance upon Baltimore.

Amid the current climate it was announced today the NAACP, National Action Network (NAN), the New Black Panther Party (NBPP), the Nation of Islam, along with Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, Jamal Bryant, Malik Shabazz and Marc Morial, are all converging on Baltimore for a weekend of protests and grievance rallies.

A left-wing group in Pensacola Florida, “Occupy Pensacola“, has identified Sheriff David Morgan as a threat to their delicate sensibilities for using the term “Thug Culture”.
As you are reading this, hundreds of professional BGI activists have rushed to their “safe spaces” to email, text, and calling their leadership.   Following the “trigger warning” comes the activation of the media clarion call for additional support.
Escambia County Sheriff David Morgan had the audacity to speak on camera about the breakdown in culture and civility amid the black community.  In an attempt to get to the root cause of violence he and his officers are encountering Sheriff Morgan spoke of the breakdown of the family and a disconnect of virtue and morality.
He is now in the crosshairs of the professionally aggrieved.  Here is the video that activated the Trigger Warning.

Because the Freddie Gray story advances a specific narrative right in the sweet spot for check-box progressives who deliver liberal punditry on the network and try to convince America that it’s the majority view.

If a commercial airliner disappeared over Baltimore CNN would climax.

And the local liberal media in/around Baltimore Maryland are just giddy with praise.

Baltimore Sun: “When it comes to television, CNN has been in a league by itself in covering the Freddie Gray story“…

The professionally aggrieved have once again found a friend in CNN.

The U.S. Justices should hear a major First Amendment case.
