You are not black, nor am I so both of our opinions are really not factual.

The majority of the Baltimore police force is non-whites.
90% of the people arrested for murder in the city, are black. Just like every other poor urban area, there will necessarily be tense interactions between blacks and the police. Sometimes, those interactions end tragically, and in rare cases, the cop is guilty of a crime. It's not a systemic thing that happens all the time. Maybe once a month?
Put it in context. All these riots about police brutality (which needs to be exposed, clearly). But of all black deaths, how many are at the hands of white cops, and how many are at the hands of fellow black citizens? Why aren't we talking about what is obviously the bigger problem, which is black-on-black crime? |

No mention of the suggestion that maybe people choose to act this way, because there are some jerks out there.
