No Surprise Here: Police Version Of Events Clashes With Reality

"Yesterday we were among the first to break the story on Blood and Crip gang “truce” agreements, brokered in large part by leaders from the Nation of Islam in Baltimore. But no sooner than our report began going viral, the Baltimore Police Department seized on this as an opportunity to demonize those groups, and claim that the truce was all about bringing harm to them. In spite of the police press release to this effect, there was nothing said by any representatives of the Bloods, Crips, Black Guerrilla Family or any other gang that would have given the police any reason to believe this."
