You and I both have been writing about how resilient and strong Baltimore is, how many good people have come out from all over to help clean up. I'm so sick of the naysayers and infuriated at those who actually advocate burning the city down. I want justice for Freddie Gray.

Everyone is angry about what happened to Freddie Gray, and most coverage I've seen emphasizes that for quite a while, the protests were peaceful.
