Mayor 'told police to STAND DOWN while Baltimore began to burn during riots'

It's more complicated than that. I'm wondering if the local pols are useful idiots. (That Baltimore mayor sure qualifies for the idiot part.) These inner city revitalization plans are going on everywhere, to the immense profit of those connected for the construction contracts. One suspects the local pols are generously thanked for the business.

But the cities complicit in the rioting? I doubt it. I suspect every city's leadership must realize that the growth is quite fragile. People will change their mind about inner city living, businesses will move out as quickly as they moved in, and tourists will avoid any city where they fear chaos.

But, yeah, it sure does look like some elements among our masters want to get hold of the real estate and maybe some cheap abandoned property. It sure isn't about a better life for the abandoned class that lives there.

The Mayor’s STAND DOWN order is Baltimore’s Benghazi!!

Does that expression remind you of any body?

I don't think Democrats understand how free enterprise works. Plus, they think short term.

They want the federal government to subsidize jobs and businesses - joint enterprises.

I mean, Democrats think the minimum wage is for families to live on.

I didn't used to be cynical. The 1994 Republican Revolution being converted into an Elite Event turned me, lol.

Other than Shelly O?

>> I didn’t used to be cynical

No problem — I meant it with *respect*!

Yup.....Most black women I see wear it.
I call it “the negro scowl”

[hinckley buzzard]

No. Mayor has immunity.

Baltighazi!

[CivilWarBrewing]

An inner hatred for whites and a society and it’s laws created by whites. I see Moochelle’s twin sister.

[hinckley buzzard]

She got her law degree from University of Maryland. But her undergrad was at Oberlin College, notorious day care center for idiot left wing children. Steeped in identity BS, she very probably did have reservations about stopping the "just expression of legitimate grievances."

Maybe the mayor wanted more federal money from Obama - and a few burned buildings was needed to prime the pump.

There’s nothing I put beyond democrats...

Do they still have a 7th inning stretch at the Benghazi Orioles game?

I heard her say that on the tape. She said that the protesters needed protecting from cars o that the cars would not run over them. And those who wished to destroy would have space to destroy. The rioters get and understood her message. To wit} If they wanted to stop cars and drag the occupants out and beat the hell out of them, the police would protect the rioters should the occupants of the vehicles attempted to protect themselves by driving away and possibly running over them. The driver of said vehicle would be prosecuted. Should any White attempt to defend themselves when attacked by a Black or a mob of Blacks, Said White would be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

America needs to bring back the political/official malfeasance deterrent measure known as ‘ the Pillory’

To mandate that elected officials who are derelict in their duties be placed in stocks and exposed to public humiliation would go far to stop these arrogant cretins from abusing the power that is errantly given them .

Fer sure! I have nostalgia for my former self - for all of us back then. That 1994 election was the most fun ever. However, knowing the truth is better.
