Baltimore sets youth curfew to curb crime

It’s been ages since I’ve been to Baltimore at night — do they still have “squeegie kids”? You know, the 8-12 yr olds who ride around on their bikes all night, stopping at intersections to clean your windshield whether you agree to it or not. If you don’t pay, they start banging on your car with the stick-end of the squeegie, trying to dent and scratch the paint.

Ahhh, brings back my youthful weekends spent in Fells Point! LOL

Now will the Amish teens' parents will be home as a two parent family? Or will little Trayvon and little LaCynthya be home alone while their egg and sperm donors be out but not together.

LaCynthya is a real name. I saw a missing person flyer at the local WalMart.Those Amish are creative with names.

Each and every parent in Baltimore should be ashamed the city even needs to pass this law....

Amen! You can go into some neighborhoods, though, at 2 AM, and see even little children outside on the sidewalk. It’s as if the parents have no common sense.

Hmmmm. Once upon a time in America, PARENTS set curfews on kids. Of course, now that libtards have destroyed the family, who else but government can or will?

Certainly, the "Baby Daddy's" can't be bothered to control their multiple, feral offspring (which, to be fair, is hard to do from an alcohol/drug induced stupor, or prison).

Actually long-past Baltimore had curfews and truant officers as mentioned earlier. You can ask my mom. Guess which society was a lot more civil?

Omar don’t scare...

I presume the law only applies to children not accompanied by parents.

A female mother and male father, and they were married? That would be the trifecta of morality.

“with critics calling the move legal overreach.”

Now cry me a river. Curfews are nothing new. It was 9 PM in the town where I attended High School, and it was enforced. When the whistle blew at the mill, you had better be at least heading for home. AND if there were more than three in a group, you were split up.

All sports were done by 9 PM if later, they made exceptions for that night.

And that somehow negates the fact that it's a legal overreach?

This is how they control us. Instead of going after the real problem they treat us all like criminals. Kind of like the airport and Muslims.

Good thing we are not ‘racist’

Mr Orwell please pick up the red phone.
