Why are they rioting? Read this:

NOBODY is trying to control the police. They act with impunity. As you can see, Freddie Gray was not the first. He was the trigger.

MLK: A riot is the language of the unheard
Do you hear them now?

1. Thank you for this. Sitting at a keyboard does not give a true picture of what is happening,

what has happened, what will continue to happen, especially now that the police are militarized.

"Thank you sir, may I have another?" does not have any effect. IIRC, this did not even produce another bowl of gruel for an orphan.

2. I remember Watts and Washington DC in the 60s

You are so right. The police brutality for years along with low income is a recipe for disaster.
People can only take so much and now with cell phones there is proof.
This may very well spread.
