Perhaps she will be better able to bring her Baltimore success to other cities nationally.

The date will help to put this in to context. This was last year, not on the heels of her magnificent display of leadership qualities in this past week’s riots.

Is it possible that PC will kill us all? Obviously, this person is incompetent as mayor. Affirmative action rules!

An incompetent who has been pretty impressed with herself, demonstrates what black Alinsky looks like.

Inexcusable thinking and lack of planning on her part, unless you are part of the problem.

Don’t worry, summer is still almost two months off. I expect this to be a long hot summer. Rioting in many black Democrat led cities. Especially black majority cities.

Missed seeing last year’s date on the article.

Really doesn’t change anything for the better for her though.

KATHRINA/New Orleans Mayer/Governor all over again. DNC-asses run cities always same negative result like Detroit!

There is something bigger brewing like trial run calculation for Hussein to declaring Martial Law for a “third” term!!

He’s NOT supporting Jezebel taking his place January 20th. 2017!!!

The whole problem is lack of commercial development in blighted inner cities

Gun free zones where it is illegal for shop owners to defend themselves and their stores , Socialist big government , Democrat high tax rates & high regulations, lazy racist black panther type thugs supported by Rev’s Jessie & Al, and ... create blighted inner cities.

This should tell us this nation is sadly lacking in quality of personnel as mayors. This is not surprising as most larger cities have Dem mayors and they are elected by the inner city types based on how much they promise in bennies.

Socialist Democrat controlled areas that offer lots of free stuff attract lazy thugs who will vote for more free stuff.

The parasites then kill the host... as planned by George Soros, Sal Alinsky, and their evil pals.

And the big question is “why is there a lack of commecial development in blighted inner cities”? Why do private developers and the business community avoid these areas??? Are we allowed to talk about that, or does political correctness forbid a discussion of why some areas are so neglected???

I’ve got to admit that I was being facetious . . I watched as a parade of residents said this was the big problem, while businesses were burning in the background. Why would any sensible business locate in such a volatile area? Inner city behavior is a self fulfilling tragedy!

Good questions. The black community has refused to condemn men for fathering kids and not raising them. They always seem to blame the government and whites. I refuse to listen to those on welfare complain about how bad their life is and they try to justify more freebies plus charge booze and gambling on EBT cards. This is ridiculous. This nation’s welfare laws have to be made so they do not encourage another generation of welfare. We have got to demand these folks are drug tested,are actively seeking work, plus much more. This welfare as a way of life has to stop. No more free anything for anyone. If you did not earn it -you do not get it. These folks looting and burning should be stripped of all present and future Gov bennies, forced to work on civic projects like cleanup of trash on roadsides , plus be forced to rebuild what they destroyed until every cent is paid back. Hell, they should be shot on sight for looting and/or destruction of any kind.

Yes, and once they are moved to another area they take that area down to their level faster then many think.
