How many blacks have died in Baltimore since Freddie?
Not a peep from the media on that subject.
How many blacks have died in America since Trayvon?
Not a peep from the media on that subject, either.
Sounds like Baltimore is back to normal.
Amish holiday?
Is this due to a lack of infrastructure funding?
Midnight basketball must be over.
The only reason they shoot each other is because of “white privilege”.
Thanks to the mayor and the district attorney, the cops are no longer being proactive. Now they only respond to incidents after the shootings to to draw the outline around the bodies.
Give them room
I mean, it's not like they'll go to jail themselves if they try to stop all of this crime, all of this violence - right?

Two women shot during a chaotic exchange of gunfire happened upon by a police supervisor were among 16 people wounded by gunfire since late Saturday morning, according to police.
The most recent shooting happened about 2:50 a.m. in the 900 block of West 52nd Street in the Back of the Yards neighborhood.
A supervisor patrolling the area barely south of the shooting heard the gunfire and saw a car fleeing the scene, police said.
As the supervisor approached 52nd Street, the shooting continued and the supervisor called out for help from more police and ambulances.
“They’re still shooting over there,” the dispatcher said after the supervisor repeated a call for help. “Get some cars over there with him, (he’s) on scene.”
Who cares.
I haven’t read the COMMIE APPEAL which is Memphis’s fish wrapper, but I suspect it says about the same. The first 15 mins of the nightly news is noting but crime and shootings.
Hard to believe!
I wonder how black police being forced to work in black neighborhoods would feel about that.
“Is this due to a lack of infrastructure funding?”
The biggest problem i see is Lack of non-aggressive museums as per mrs obama?
Perhaps some cultural events?
A community garden with soothing classical music would do some good?
How about free yoga lessons? :) :) :)
Maybe declare the city a ‘no kill zone’
They need stricter gun control. Yeah, that’s it. They need stricter gun control. Maybe cut off the supply of bullets over the internet. Yeah. That’ll help. Or a gun buyback program to get those murder things out of the hands of children. Yeah. Perfect. Or make shooting guns inside the city limits illegal. Yeah...
Seems like a spate of “microaggressions”
No Whitey to blame. No media hype. No looting.
Just another Saturday night in Charm City.
