Baltimore Man: When I Was A Marine I Was Called A Patriot, When I Fight For My People I'm A Thug (RealClearPolitics)

A man, identifying himself as a Marine, yelled at law enforcement after the charges against six Baltimore City police officers were announced. Many members of the Baltimore City Police Department are veterans.

"We gave our lives for this country," the emotional man said to the police suited up in riot gear. "Look at you. Is this what it's coming to, man? I love this fucking country, too. Just as much as you do. We're fighting for a reason, man. I was willing to give my life for this country, man. Look at this community now, man."
