Failed Baltimore Mayor Rawlings-Blake Blames Others For Her City’s Violence
Bearing Arms ^ | August 21, 2015 | Bob Owens

Failed people all have one thing in common, and that’s an inability to accept responsibility.

After a stunning 211 homicides in “Charm City” so far this year, Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake—who so ineptly led the city during the Freddie Gray riots and who alienated her own police department—is now attempting to blame her city’s violence on, well, everywhere else.

This article is a must read. A good example of what the Democrat Party is today, in the words of one of its elected officials, the Mayor of Baltimore.

This pathetic mayor is no different than most black liberal/leftist politicians in that they won’t take responsibility for their own actions.

Her pathetic actions of telling the police to stand back and give the rioters space is out there for the world to see, and she can’t handle that now.

The problem, she said, is that [gun] laws in other states are more lax.

Then why do these other states with lax gun laws have lower crime than Baltimore?

Just the kind of incompetence and irresponsibility we’ve come to expect from inner city black democrats. Democrats who were put in positions of power by votes from complete idiots.

“They elected omally twice as mayor (then governor) and then this thing”

In between O’Malley, the slime ball, and Rawlings-Blake was Mayor Dixon who resigned after stealing gift cards her administration had asked people to contribute saying they would be used to buy Christmas presents for needy children.

Baltimore has had many terrible mayors.

Rawlings-Blake is following the same blame-shifting pattern of the governments of Chicago, Washington, DC, and other large, Democrat-controlled cities

Says it all.
