Baltimore (and in other decades-long absolute Dem controlled metropolitan area), in a nutshell.
To: Sir Napsalot
the only reason cities exist any longer is to coalesce power-generally to the benefit of Democrats.
There is no reason to aggregate capital or material any longer.
Cities have been on life support since the 1960’s.
As the national line of credit is exhausted, watch them all fold

Back in the 80s, I had a long description given to me by a guy who grew up in 1960s/1970s Baltimore. Great atmosphere. Charm. It was a great place to be.
At some point in the 1980s....as cocaine flowed in. It changed. Crime swung up. The affect of DC, the gangs, drug spiral....changed it into a place which isn’t safe. I don’t see why any company chooses to stay there and operate. It’s the Detroit of the east.

"Isn’t that late?" the mayor reportedly responded. "That’s a little late. It keeps the crowds around here. Nine o’clock is nice. We need you-all to close at 9 o’clock at night."
That sounds like a sound bite from Office Space II.
And could you work on Saturday while you are at it?

I remember when the allowed rioting happened in Baltimore. The “community leaders” wanted police to be gone. They said they were going to police their communities on their own.

Wait...I thought there was a ‘truce’ of some kind in Baltimore.
What is this ‘violence’ they speak of?

Don't go out onto the streets of Baltimore at night.
Don't go out onto the streets of Baltimore during the day.

Why not go one step further and completely shut the businesses down to end violence. Its working so well in Venezuela.

Even before the Orioles decided to pay huge contracts to guys that can't hit or pitch, the city ruined them by allowing rioting to take place without any police response.
The result is abysmal attendance that makes the inner harbor even less desirable. I didn't think that was possible. Democrats will, eventually, kill everything that is good.

The black community in Balt is rigidly divided by class. The uptown blacks, represented by the Mayor, sip their tea in China cups in private clubs overlooking the port.
