Re: Where's The Disgust About Baltimore?
Wells Fargo Bank first pushed sub-prime mortgages on thousands of black families in Baltimore (referred to as "Mud People" by loan officers), then foreclosed on their homes. But unlike Baltimore's black youth who threw rocks, not one single banker was arrested for destroying the community.

You don't want to go there. The Clinton Administration pushed these sub prime loans back in the late 90s. Research it. The Clintons wanted poor people to own homes so they came up w a way for poor people to secure loans they could never pay back. Banks were required by the Feds to provide these loans to unqualified people.
Liberals come up with hair brained ideas in order to tinker with w social justice, only to see their socialist plans fail, then blame the evil banks or wealthy for the failure.

Re: Where's The Disgust About Baltimore?
Washington Post is reporting that another prisoner in the van says that Freddie Gray was trying to injure himself in the van.

Perhaps my hypothesis was correct.

Re: Where's The Disgust About Baltimore?
It shows that when people rush to judgment, the possibility that you're wrong increases exponentially. But we all know the issue is ultimately not the issue.

well, then our main disagreement is which is the cart, and which is the horse, then. It seems to me that the net results of all the QE would pretty much bury your pov here. Governments kowtow to Banks, imo, and not the other way around.
