=== Misguided Mob Rule (07:01) ===

[00:00:04]  Hello, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
[00:00:07]  In Baltimore, we have just witnessed mob rule.
[00:00:11]  It was dressed up as legal procedure, but it was mob rule.
[00:00:16]  The mob rioted, and the mob got what it wanted.
[00:00:19]  It all started on April 12th, when three white policemen arrested a black named Freddie Gray.
[00:00:26]  It was his 19th arrest.
[00:00:29]  Three more officers were then involved in taking him to the police station.
[00:00:34]  Somewhere along the way, his spinal cord was injured.
[00:00:37]  After he got to the station, he was rushed to the hospital and he died a week later.
[00:00:43]  The six officers were suspended while the Baltimore police investigated.
[00:00:47]  But as we have learned, in Ferguson, Missouri, the Trayvon Martin case, Duke lacrosse team, Eric Garner in New York, blacks can't wait for an investigation.
[00:00:58]  They want vengeance.
[00:01:00]  And so, they burned and looted.
[00:01:03]  And they got the kid glove treatment.
[00:01:05]  As the mayor of Baltimore, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, explained,"We gave those who wished to destroy space to do that." When the rioters really got frisky, she did call them thugs.
[00:01:19]  But she apologized two days later.
[00:01:22]  "We don't have thugs in Baltimore," she said.
[00:01:25]  "That night we saw misguided young people." Well, let's see.
[00:01:31]  Here's some misguided young people smashing a police car.
[00:01:35]  Here are more misguided young people looting a 7-Eleven.
[00:01:39]  The misguided lady appears to be exercising black power.
[00:01:44]  And here's what is left of a sneaker store after misguided young people helped themselves.
[00:01:52]  Misguided young people also burned a CVS drugstore.
[00:01:56]  The city had begged the company to put a store in that dangerous neighborhood, but another misguided young person cut the hose that the firemen were using to put out the fire.
[00:02:07]  But this was not wanton destruction.
[00:02:11]  Misguided young people were careful to loot the place before they burned it.
[00:02:15]  The mayor wasn't the only one to say that you shouldn't call these exuberant young people thugs.
[00:02:21]  City Councilman Carl Stokes said the word was an insult.
[00:02:25]  These are children who have been set aside, he said.
[00:02:29]  They're marginalized, who have not been engaged by us.
[00:02:33]  Well, Baltimore is run by blacks.
[00:02:35]  The misguided youth are black.
[00:02:37]  Their parents and teachers are black.
[00:02:39]  So the people who misguided them must be black.
[00:02:43]  But I don't think that's the general view in Baltimore.
[00:02:48]  Demonstrators waved printed signs like the one on the right of the screen which says,"Racism is the disease.
[00:02:54]  Revolution is the cure." And along with that red sign, here's a yellow one that says,"Stop racist police terror." And here's a lady telling us that the way to stop murder by police is to"Shut down Baltimore" and"Shut down America-ka-ka." When the city's misguided young people did shut down Baltimore,
[00:03:19]  the city prosecutor, Marilyn Mosby, didn't bother with a grand jury.
[00:03:23]  She surprised everyone by indicting all six of the officers right away.
[00:03:28]  And she spoke directly to the people who were tearing the place apart.
[00:03:33]  "To the youth of the city," she said,"I will seek justice on your behalf.
[00:03:39]  This is a moment.
[00:03:40]  This is your moment." She didn't say a word about seeking justice for 7-Eleven or CVS or for the sneaker store.
[00:03:50]  But she went on, and I quote, To the people of Baltimore, I heard your call for no justice, no peace.
[00:03:57]  Your peace is sincerely needed as I work to deliver justice on behalf of this young man.
[00:04:04]  Well, she as much as admitted that she indicted the officers because of the rioting.
[00:04:10]  That's sure how blacks saw it.
[00:04:13]  There's no need to go tear up the city no more, said Rene James, age 48. Abdullah Mouni, age 53, agreed.
[00:04:23]  There would have been no charges filed, he said, if it wasn't for the riot.
[00:04:29]  The city's mood turned to joy.
[00:04:32]  Violence had been rewarded.
[00:04:34]  Hundreds of people celebrated, breaking the curfew that the mayor had ordered just four days earlier.
[00:04:42]  The next day, there was a spontaneous street party of thousands of people.
[00:04:46]  It was a holiday atmosphere with dancing and singing in the streets.
[00:04:50]  The people had been heard.
[00:04:52]  There would be vengeance.
[00:04:54]  Mayor Rawlings' Blake caught the new mood.
[00:04:57]  I'm so inspired and encouraged by what I see, she told CBS affiliate WJZ.
[00:05:05]  That day, people marched through Freddie Gray's old neighborhood, chanting, Our streets!
[00:05:13]  You can't argue with that.
[00:05:14]  They tore up cop cars and looted local businesses, and most of them got away with it.
[00:05:20]  So what about the officers?
[00:05:22]  Between them, they've been charged with second-degree murder, second-degree manslaughter, involuntary manslaughter, manslaughter by vehicle, second-degree assault, misconduct in office, and false imprisonment.
[00:05:35]  Something bad happened to Freddie Gray in the back of that police van, but no one tried to kill him.
[00:05:41]  He was cuffed and shackled because he was violent.
[00:05:44]  He wasn't belted into his seat, but the belting rule was just a few days old and may not have gotten to those officers.
[00:05:52]  Besides, even a cuffed and shackled man can bite you or spit on you if you bend over him and try to buckle him.
[00:06:01]  Gray was denied medical help, but prisoners claimed to be sick and injured all the time.
[00:06:10]  They'd never get to the station.
[00:06:12]  Legal experts think the case against the officers is very weak.
[00:06:17]  George Washington University law professor John Banjoff says a judge should dismiss most or even all the charges.
[00:06:26]  The legal consensus is that there might be a case for civil negligence and just possibly, depending on the evidence, criminal negligence, but it would be hard to get a conviction.
[00:06:38]  Alan Dershowitz of Harvard Law School says the prosecutor Mosby is putting on, quote, a show trial.
[00:06:45]  So what we've got in Baltimore is the worst possible outcome.

=== Reminds of Primitive Tribes (00:21) ===

[00:06:50]  Blacks go on the rampage and police officers are thrown to the dogs just to calm the mob.
[00:06:56]  What better way to tell them that rioting works and to ask for more riots if the verdicts are not guilty?
[00:07:06]  You know, it reminds me of what primitive tribes do when the gods are angry.
