Maryland “Freak State” PING!

What’s the percentage of “Yo’s” in Baltimore now?

[struggle]

Yeah, it’s all the white people’s fault.

Face it Baltimore Sun, the blacks that wanted out worked and got out. I lived with them in Frederick County.

[Slings and Arrows]

If I lived in Baltimore I’d get out if I had to take a dirt road.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

People do vote with their feet.

[Tijeras_Slim]

They’re not even making Natty Boh there any more.

Jubilee is a perfectly good word:

the completion of 50 years of existence, activity, or the like, or its celebration: Our college will celebrate its jubilee next year.

"... How else to explain that the planned "transit line" down the center of the road was never built? Coupled with the dismantling of commuter rail and streetcars around the same time, the JFX could guarantee in and out privileges to white suburbanites but left urban blacks without cars with no way out."

Not building or preserving underutilized and unneeded public transportation be racist, yo.

[sickoflibs]

Yep, but they got revenge decades later.
The public financed light rail moved hundreds of section 8 (rental) welfare cases out of the Baltimore city to northern Baltimore county where they brought crime and decay with them.

It showed me how you don’t want public transportation near your home unless you are absolutely stranded nor own a house near any apartments. They charge you taxes to ruin your neighborhood.

PlanMaryland is a socialist plan similar to the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs Division for Sustainable Development.
This is in direct conflict with the American concept of private property rights.
BTW, I guess the jerk that wrote this piece never heard of MTA buses and MTA light rail that both run from downtown to the burbs. Bringing the crime with them.

How else to explain that the planned "transit line" down the center of the road was never built?

There's probably a million other possible reasons, you psychotic, leftist, POS.

Meanwhile, yesterday I watch a ghetto rapper holding his crotch walk down a tree lined neighborhood street next to mine. I should have stopped him and given him the authors address.

[Anti-Bubba182]

Pffttt!!! The social engineers and their race pimping associates always have something to whine about.

“How else to explain that the planned “transit line” down the center of the road was never built?”

Um, hello? “Light rail”?

OK, it’s not in the CENTER of the road, but it parallels right next to it most of the way.

BTW, I highly doubt all those white people left on 83. That would only take them north. They aren’t all in Balto. Co.

Where does this oversensitive self-righteous race pimp live?

[the OlLine Rebel]

“Nobody complained that the Intercounty Connector was out-of-control socialized government spending.”

Nobody? Only in your liberal fantasy world, where most are liberals and conservatives hardly make a dent. Many people (I know them personally) complained about the ICC.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The point seems to be that Eric Holder’s people’s slaves escaped via JFX?

[Venturer]

It’s a shadow the follows white people wherever they go.

Whites move to get away from crime— a better class of blacks moves for the same reason, and then the ghetto makers follow as sure as day follows night.

Everything they touch turns to crap and then the move starts all over again.Meantime schools that were left empty now close while we pay taxes to open new schools in the new communities which will soon be destroyed. Running room is beginning to run out distance costs money we cannot afford.

So O’Malley and his crooks come up with Plan Maryland, to try to force the running to stop.

[ModelBreaker]

“How else to explain that the planned “transit line” down the center of the road was never built?”

It’s lucky for those Jim Crows that negros don’t drive cars. Otherwise, they could have escaped too.

[BfloGuy]

Yeah, that's the big, liberal justification for light rail and other such idiocies. The expressways subsidized the rush to the suburbs as if the yokels wouldn't spend another ten minutes driving back to work in the cities.

It's funny that nothing's ever mentioned about compulsory busing. Now, that killed the cities.

[mikey_hates_everything]

Really? White flight because of I-83? I used to regularly take N Charles to Timonium, sometimes Falls Rd, and it sure looked like whites were still around. Those neighborhoods near MLK Blvd that starred in The Wire aren’t due to white flight.
