    The actions of The States Attorney in Baltimore , Marilyn Mosby (who came from a family of law enforcement officers) are disgraceful. The charges she filed were absurd. Clearly, a very overwhelmed underprepared naive inexperienced prosecutor who was anxious to crucify someone to make a name for herself. Just despicable. A rank ametuer. Baltimore deserves better. I think.

    I don't know what happened there.

    I agree that they do. Obviously someone should be in jail for Freddie Gray's death. People don't just sever their own spinal cords.

    In it's simplest form, it is an attempt to appease the un-appeasable wrapped in the mis-labeled cloak of justice.

    I don't pretend to be an expert in the case, but I understand that the William Porter case ended in a mistrial amid allegations of evidence being withheld from the defense.

    Freddie Grays spinal cord was not severed and he most likely would have never suffered a fatal injury had he remained on the floor of the van instead of trying to stand up while shackled and cuffed.

A return to true freedom to seek medical care on the open market is what we need. The only way to provide medical care as a "right" is by force...by oppressive beuraucracies, rationing and deprivation. We have been going in the wrong direction. We need a compass to get out of the woods, not more wandering around.
    The only way I can see American health care improving at this point is if more people vote with their feet and offshore their health care. Starve the system and I believe the prices would go down. I do my part towards this at any rate.....Rob
