I don't care what colour, race or religion you are, burning up your own town, and destroying the businesses of people that choose to set up shop in your sketchy neighbourhood, is complete garbage, asinine, and makes you a thug. Period. Great, answer violence, with violence X 10. It's just like some of those videos I see on liveleak, where some guy steals a cell phone, and a vigilante crowd of 20 people, beat him to death then set him on fire. Respond to a crime with 10X worse crime.
The findings of what happened to this man, and how he broke his neck, still aren't even determined. But it is clear he wasn't shot in cold blood, it sounds like either excessive force that lead to an injury, or a tragic accident. Something happened in the back of that van, and from what I believe I read there was another prisoner in the van. Could he have done something? Did Freddie go full crazy mode, and somehow do this to himself? There are a ton of videos out there of people in cuffs, flailing and smashing their heads against windows of cruisers in a state of rage.
Let's not be naive here either. I am sure there is some outrage about what happened by some of these protesters, but the majority of them are opportunists look for a free pass to go on a crime spree, and score a sweet PS4, or case of booze.
