How do you feel about the violence in Baltimore, and the protest happening in various parts of the country?

I believe that when rioting and looting begins it can no longer be considered peaceful assembly; thus the protesting is over. I understand the anger an outrage, but there has to be a some level of order in our society. Obviously when the accused becomes the police, then outside law enforcement must be brought in to serve as a neutral investigator; but nonetheless violence and looting cannot go unpunished or unchecked, or more innocent lives are harmed.

You aint seen nothing yet, just wait until the realization hits that charges were levied too fast or the prosecution gets botched trying to be in too big a hurry.....do your job, get it right and continue on....part of getting the job done right also includes arresting the people destroying property as well as those disturbing the peace. No excuse in allowing lawlessness to continue.

While I understand there is emotion, and agree with the root cause of the demonstrations but if as much energy went into building the community as what went into destroying it, maybe there would be MORE dang businesses willing to set up shops there.....I sure as hell would not open a business there, hell no....I feel badly for the law abiding & hard working citizens there that are trying to make the best of life and trying to improve their station in life however, based on what I see on the TV, I believe they are outnumbered.

Protest yes. Rioting and violence totally unacceptable.
