Baltimore

After the funeral of Freddie Gray riots erupted in Baltimore. Stores were looted and fifteen officers were injured two in critical condition. These things are starting to get old were riots are happening because a black man is killed by a white officer obviously it is a terrible thing but this has happened before in the past and has not been blow up to this size and received this much public attention. There are also many black on black killings and other races killing blacks it's not just whites and blacks. Gangs were even claiming to work together to kill officers, these gangs being bloods, crips, and black guerrilla family. If gangs are working together this is pretty serious, but I still don't understand because I'm sure in the 1990s this happened too but did not receive this news attention and rioting. Obviously white on black violence is a terrible thing but I feel like tensions are really high between races right now for some reason and every little thing said is considered racist and you have to be very careful of what you say. Cops are also under heavy scrutiny by news and citizens and have to very careful around people because many people hate cops right now which makes their job very hard. I do not understand why these things have to be such a big deal I mean if a man is killed by police in Omaha it does not make national news so unless we do this with every person killed by a police officer it should not happen
