Stephanie Rawlings-Blake was greeting people at the Mondawmin Festival, an event with food, entertainment and representatives from Baltimore's non-profit organizations, when a woman ran up and threw what police said was water on the mayor,

...

"I didn't know what it was that she threw at me. I hope it was water," Rawlings-Blake told the Baltimore Sun. "It was more shocking than anything else."

The bizarre incident didn't stop the mayor from enjoying the festival. She later tweeted photos of herself with Baltimore residents and community partners, calling it a "fantastic day."

Well, it was a possibility...

She wanted to see if the mayor disintegrated upon contact with water.

Don’t arrest her, give the lady a MEDAL!!!!

It wasn’t more shocking that what you’d get if you grabbed that overhead 7,000 volt line.

Self “Seasond” water.

I think we are dangerously close to an all out civil war.

The left keeps being divisively stupid.

It reminds me of the sparklers that are so hard to light, but burn like hell and are hard to put out.

They really need to back off.

That headline is terrible. It implies that the woman’s arrest and the mayor’s being doused with water are independent events.

I guess the headline writer never heard of “active voice.”

Correct headline: Woman Arrested After Throwing Water on Baltimore Mayor.

I just hope friends and relatives make sure to check up on her frequently while she is in custody.

These people are waaay the hell off the deep end. And there are too many (just a few is too many) like this. They’re not going to back off. On the contrary...

Recycled water would be appropriate

Hell she’s probably getting the Queen’s treatment from police after the way the mayor has treated them.

[BenLurkin]

I suppose we shouldn’t judge a book by the cover, but — she looks mentally ill to me.

Lucky for Mayor Mouthbreather there wasn’t something worse in that cup.
