The
Media is not telling us the entire story about young Freddie, who is
becoming a Folk Hero in Baltimore. You might want to share this around,
because the Media is not going to tell you. They seem to want to keep
the conflict going. As the newsprint used to say, "if it bleeds, it
leads" to the front page. So young Freddie had back surgery a week
before and ignored doctor's orders to be in bed that night.
Here are the facts on the late Freddie Gray of Baltimore:
Freddie Gray had a pre-existing spinal and neck injury and had severe nerve damage and scar tissue from an accident that Allstate Insurance was paying him for, in a structured settlement. This monthly payment and drug money were his means of support. Freddie had had several unsuccessful spinal fusion surgeries over the past 4 1/2 years. His most recent spinal/cervical operation was a week and a half before he was arrested on April 12. He was on doctor's orders to remain home and in bed to speed recovery from that major operation. Instead, Freddie was out manufacturing and distributing drugs on the streets of Baltimore, and strenuously resisting arrest.
Freddie had a long criminal history (rap sheet): many pages long for manufacturing and distributing drugs and controlled substances, including heroin, cocaine, crack cocaine and marijuana. He had been convicted of numerous other felonies including assault, firearms violations, breaking and entering, armed robbery, receiving stolen property, and the list goes on and on from his 18th birthday. In Baltimore County, juvenile records are forever sealed except by judicial order. ( www.mdjudiciarycaseresearch ) Freddie, known on the streets as "Pepper", was 25 years old, 5'8" and weighed 145 lbs. when last arrested. He had been incarcerated at least 12 times, the longest stretch being 2 years in prison in Maryland.
Freddie had recently tried to convert his structured settlement from Allstate into a lump sum payment from Peachtree Funding, of Atlanta. Friends say he was confused by the paperwork and legal terminology.
Following his arrest, Freddie was placed into the paddy wagon by the police officers who had arrested him ---- 3 black officers, 3 white. He could have easily slipped on the floor or bench, or twisted his neck or shoulders to reopen his recently fused and weakened spine. Enroute to the County jail, the paddy wagon stopped once so that officers could put leg restraints on Freddie to calm him down and restrict his movement.
Freddie was a dangerous career felon, well-known to the BPD officers, with a damaged and healing spine and neck, and was supposed to be home healing a week and a half after surgery. He should not have been running around on the streets of Baltimore committing drug felonies and resisting arrest.
Now, why are so many residents of Baltimore destroying their own city with looting and arson? Because it's a good way to get new shoes and TVs for free? Seems to be. They sure know how to pick their heroes, don't they?
By the way, none of the eight BPD officers who arrested Freddy has ever had a complaint against him for brutality or use of excessive force.

There are actually 2 sides to every story...and the media does not want to tell this one...

First, I am a white female. In the first story you posted about Freddie's rap sheet in which you listed a long list of arrests, if you take close note, I didn't notice even one violent crime. Most were drug related, possession, /with intent to sell, etc. I did notice one breaking and entering.
If drug dealers are hardened criminals, then why aren't all pharmacists behind bars?
You are playing into the elites hands by posting this stuff, us against them, instead of all of us against the elites that control the situation.
Many people ask, "why is it that only when black people are killed by police it is news?" Isn't it obvious? They can't pit "black" against "white" if both are covered in the media equally.
The more important question to ask is why would rioters punish their own kind instead of storming the police station, or city hall? Were the riots directed by "leaders" to target small business instead of directing the violence where it should have gone?
