The protest crowds are already gathering.
Can this really be considered a racial case since three of the six officers are black and the judge that is deciding the cases is also black?
I think the case changes from black against white to public against cops.
Officer Nero of the Baltimore Police was just found innocent of the charges.
Great news!

Not to nit pick, but not guilty is the proper legal term - he wasn't "found innocent".
That said, it was the only logical outcome of a case that was politically motivated and prosecuted. The politics in the case have caused Baltimore to turn into the lawless murder capital of America as police refuse to be set up again by a leadership that seems powerless to place blame where it squarely belongs.
Since President Obama is in Asia now, perhaps he will avoid doing his usual and roiling racial tensions with some idiotic statement about this verdict.

Don't bet on that. There are still cameras over there and I don't think he can stop himself from commenting.
He's too busy apologizing to Vietnam and Japan.

Sidenote: Baltimore, here's your chance to vote out your ditzy current mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake in the November elections.
Innocent until proven guilty.
Give it time. The crowds are just gathering.
I am sure busses are on the way.
They have to have time to be told why they are there and at what to be mad.
Actually, it's still daylight. This crowd won't do it's real "protesting" until the cover of darkness can assist in their riotous activity.
Yes, but a court does not find or prove innocence. It's not their role.
The outcome was assumed, the not guilty verdict is a surprise, it takes time to organize and bus in the protesters.I don't know. Last time the mayor let them have free reign, so why waste valuable destroying time?
