<[>Proof positive that Jefferson was right, urban living leads to degeneration and squalor of the spirit. Read all the people who defend crime and destruction and have only scorn for the writer who stands up for civilization.
Wow. What a collection of ten cent farts of opinions there.
The only one that made any kind of sense at all was Mr. Ericson.
But if you want something really valuable out of that turd-in-a-can of discussion, pay attention to what liberals are saying.
That is what they REALLY feel. All the rest is rubbish and fluff.
Thus illustrating the reason for the MSM newspapers' ever declining circulation and march toward fiscal bankruptcy.
They have already achieved moral bankruptcy.
Hmmm. Decisions, decisions....
but they are the same folks that don't want vigorous policing, or profiling, or punishing HS young men for anything it seems....
they want the crime gone, but not really....they aren't ready to do what needs to be done to get rid of it....one simple thing....report crimes...so simple...
The Wire?
Not accepting “black culture” isn’t a privilege- it’s a choice.
Adults of any race can make that choice.
Three words: Coleman. Young. Detroit.
Three more: Get. Out. Now.
Oh my goodness, is that that awful song where the guy’s wife leaves him “to walk the streets of Baltimore”?
I hate that song with a ludicrous passion.
One is well rid of any dame that is leaving you to be a whore in Bmore.
I’d like to make every liberal squish, black or white, who prates about “white privilege” be made to walk unarmed one mile, after midnight, down one of those wonderful diverse, inner city streets.
There’s a saying that some conservatives were liberal until they were mugged?
Well, I bet that some of these people who want to make a political statement, by living in the city, are liberal. But they find that their liberalism doesn’t protect them from being targeted by the feral savages in the city. Who can blame anyone for moving as far away as they can get from the feral youth gangs and other problems of city living????
Liberal ideas and delusions are turning many of our major cities into hellholes.
For those who think this is a dog whistle - it's not. The reason people need to GET OUT NOW is because of out-of-control black male violence.
I had many, many conversions with the woman and she told me she felt safer in my Mom's neighborhood than in her own.
Id like to make every liberal squish, black or white, who prates about white privilege be made to walk unarmed one mile, after midnight, down one of those wonderful diverse, inner city streets.

Around the late ‘80s-early ‘90s, I attended an international convention in my professional discipline in Baltimore. My hotel was just a short block away from the Inner Harbor where the convention was held.
The first morning, the Mayor welcomed us and warned everyone NOT to walk on any streets beyond two blocks from the Inner Harbor, even in the daytime or lunchtime.
I DID enjoy the shops at the Inner Harbor and took a walk one afternoon down the way to the National Aquarium, which was an awesome place!
I heard the same thing from a black co-worker, then living in a city with a tiny black population, who told me his old inner-city, virtually all-black neighborhood was like living in a shooting gallery.
Baltimore does not make me think of “The Wire” (which bored me to tears) but, rather, when I hear “Baltimore” I think “John Waters.”
Now, there is a man who LOVED the city. No joke, he really did.
