This one photo sums up what mainstream media won’t show in Baltimore
Not all protests are violent in Baltimore. This picture sums it up.
“Riots” lit up the city of Baltimore yesterday after the funeral of Freddie Gray but one photo summed it all.
I put quotations around riot because it is not certain how the riots actually started. Mainstream media has reported it started by high school students who merged to a mall, eyewitnesses share a different tale of accounts.
Nonetheless, small parts of the city of Baltimore were looted, and mainstream media has failed yet again to detail the real accounts of what’s been going on.
These media outlets have painted a picture of havoc and lawlessness, and not unfairly. Not all of Baltimore protestor’s are violent or unruly. Gang members are not trying to kill police officers, they as well, want peace.
Yes there has been some “rioting” and there are peaceful protests as well. And this photo sums up what mainstream media is failing to show in Baltimore:
Peace.
