Galatians 6:9 We must not become tired of doing good. We will receive our harvest of eternal life at the right time if we do not give up.
It wasn’t all a gang of rioters in Baltimore last night.
The gang members who Baltimore officials said were banding together to attack police went to the media with a message that they didn’t call a truce so they could team up to attack the police; they were teaming up to stop the rioting.
A group of Bloods gang members told WBAL-TV that they had been attacked on the streets when they were stopping rioters from damaging buildings and businesses by police who did not realize they were attempting to stop the riots.
A member of the BGF gang said that the groups were “black men united for justice” and that people need to stop believing everything they’re hearing in the media because they’re tired of being blamed for the rioting when in this case they’re not involved with the crimes.
Others stepped up to stop the rioting and protests in an attempt to bring calm to the city of Baltimore…including the family of Freddie Gray. Gray’s family, clergy and residents of the area banded together to stop the violence.
“I want them all to go back home,” said the Rev. Jamal Bryant. “It’s disrespect to the family. The family was very clear — we’ve been saying it all along — today there was absolutely no protest, no demonstration.”
Members of a Christian church formed a human wall as well as other faith groups.
CNN showed video of a parent coming into the middle of the rioting and grabbing her son, forcing him to go home.
“I wish I had more parents that took charge of their kids out there tonight,” Police Commissioner Anthony Batts said.
The darker side of the city was shown all night through looting, arson and violence. A drug treatment center and senior center that was under construction was burned to the ground by protesters. A CVS pharmacy, a locally-owned pharmacy, liquor store and multiple cars were robbed and burned.
