cops are wining?

I don’t think it is proper to blame the violence in Baltimore on the cops.

[I want the USA back]

Street thugs killing the people because they know they can get away with it. If caught, they just have to cry racism and they’re safe.

Baltimore has proven more policing = less crime and less policing = more crime.

Yet I grew up (50’s)in a white poor midwest town with few cops and little crime. I now live in a lily white gated community with no policing and no crime.

So, while policing has an affect, the real question is why is Baltimore’s residents are so violent?

I also wonder if the black, dem controlled people of Baltimore are capable of self-rule?

N.B.: The Maryland Army National Guard (MD ARNG) is headquartered at the old Fifth Regiment Armory at the intersection of North Howard Street, 29th Division Street, near Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard in Baltimore.

The Democrats and the media have fooled themselves into believing – or at least saying they believe – cops actually go out looking for innocent people to shoot and falsely arrest. Because they buy into this foolishness they cheered the vicious, racist (to Black liberal Democrats even Black cops are “white” by association) City Attorney’s indictment of the Police Department. Immediately after this spouting of hatred, innocent people became prisoners in their own homes. They don’t dare go out because the overwhelming majority of cops are now doing little more than planning how to get through their tour without being arrested or attacked by a mob.

"Damn racist cops!"

This morning FoxNews had a report that people in NYC were wanting the mayor to reinstall random street searches because there is apparently a new crime wave.

‘Officials’ said it was gang-related but offered no solutions.

I live in the South side of Cypress, California and it has been weeks since I have seen a police car come through the neighborhood. Maybe they come through in the middle of the night when I am sleeping? Anyways the crime rate is very low in our area and I am sure they are putting their resources into other parts of the city.

What actually happens on the streets is a mystery to the self-important left; but it is very clear to Baltimore’s cops.

The left wouldn't stand a chance if they didn't have fools in the press willing to swap off gullibility for good story leads....

the cops are wining

Are they drinking elegantly or is there an "h" missing?

[joshua c]

Rawlings-Blake and company can now claim success.

I have not read of any blacks killed by police in Baltimore.

Wasn’t that the goal?

I see the same thing on FR all the time, mainly from Libertarians.

Blacks in America commit murder at more than 7 times the rate, as non-blacks.ax, and perhaps the figure goes up higher.

That is published in US Justice Dept. reports. That figure is the result of fairly tough inner city policing.

Tough inner city policing therefore, holds the number down to just 7 times.

Reverse policing from tough to lax and the ration goes even higher.

Violent crime and black populations go together. This table shows the highest murder rates where high black populations exist. Detroit, New Orleans, St. Louis, etc all high black and highest murder rates

Conversely low murder rates exist where high Hispanic populations are. Look at Santa Ana CA, and Austin TX which both have high percent Hispanic, and among the lowest murder rates for example.
