Back breaking news

It didn't take long for the haters to latch on to the Baltimore riots. Latest exciting "news": Freddie Gray, the man whose spine was 80% cut after an arrest, tried to sever his own spine! Supposedly, according to a statement from an *unnamed* prisoner riding with Freddy to an "unnamed* police officer, Gray was trying to injure himself while shackled and handcuffed. Another rumor: Freddy had spinal surgery a week before the attack -- that's why his spine was severed -- he did it to himself!.

Unbelievable.

While it's unclear exactly how Freddy's spine was damaged, could we stop insulted people's intelligence by claiming he was responsible for his own maiming?

Geez.
