Did the system tell him to run ?

I never suggested he deserved to die, I just wanted to know the whole story.
I didn't say you did. I was just clarifying that no matter what, he got shafted by the system in the end.

I agree the looting needs to be stopped, mass protest, block streets, refuse to move but don't destroy property.
I don't get how people can just say let's just kill them tho.

Of course, no offence meant. The original reason I participated in the thread was for clarity as it was difficult to find a summary of the entire affair.
A somewhat common practice conducted by Philadelphia police was the 'nickle ride', placing a prisoner in the back of a 'paddy' wagon, then accelerating hard, decelerating hard, taking corners sharply, etc. The goal was to tumble the suspect about the vehicle. I've embedded an image of a wagon similar to what is in use in Philadelphia and likely in Baltimore.
After several high profile and expensive cases of broken necks, the city managed to halt the practice.
Mister James McKenna suffered from three broken vertebra in his neck from such a practice and the case cost Philadelphia nearly half a million dollars.

Ban them for life.
It is a bad look for the game and it paints the sport in a bad way-as a former player and an official this is poor form. There is a time and a place for debates and this behavior should not tolerated within or without the field.

The world would be a better place if we banned the sports entertainment industrial complex.
Fact.

Huh?..did I miss something, ban who? Am I wrong that a riot broke out outside a baseball stadium and people were asked to stay for their saftey?

Ban the fans who engage in violence within the vicinity of a sporting arena. There is a no tolerance policy around the globe in many sports.
You got a star for that too..lmao???
