How about they lay the blame where it deserves to be laid. On the denizens of plague infested Godless disrespectful Baltimore.

I’ll never forget the video of (400 pound female) welfare recipients waddling down to alternate post offices to pick up their wefate checks, after their men had burned down their local post offices during the early 1990s (Rodney Kong) Los Angeles riots.


Niven and Pournelle wrote a great satirical novel about Los Angeles, as a city where the magic was running out 14,000 years ago (science fiction/fantasy).

It is The Burning City. I LOL over and over again, reading that book. Good on many levels.

Lots of people do not see the satire.

Much like Gulliver’s travels, but better written.

“We wanted the police there. We didn’t want them beating the hell out of us, we didn’t want that.”

Picky, picky, picky

First they’ll spend half of it on the lottery.

I live in a stable low end middle class neighborhood 35 miles NE of Baltimore.

When we were looking to buy the house, I called the police to ask about the neighborhood crime and stability

The officer said “I have no idea, we never go there”

Just as the drop in NFL viewership and attendance had nothing to do with Colin K’s open hatred for our country, this rise in Baltimore murders had nothing to do with the prosecution/persecution of Baltimore police. In other random and unexplained news, violent crime rates in Europe have coincidentally risen in the same locations where they have resettled refugees.

I am clueless on what could be causing all these coincidences.

The rest they'll squander.

I spent a few days in Baltimore last October on business, and did not feel safe walking around downtown in the early evening when there was still daylight.

I won’t be going back any time soon.

They vote in rats. This is what you get. PC nonsense and soft on crimes.
Reap what you sew, city dwellers.

“Weird, my neighborhood has no police presence, yet there never seems to be any murders.”

Racism!! White Privilege!! You should be enjoying the same number of murders as your brethren in Baltimore.

Hate the cops and tell them to stay away and it becomes obvious that they serve a purpose. I guess they think that the killers are all legal gun owners who would simply stop if the cops were there to tell them to.....
