What wrong phrase would that be?
The one she claimed that she never said?
You can always tell a lying racist battleaxe with a chip on her shoulder.

Then we get the telethons with the distended bellies and the flies in the eyes and mouths. Just like always.

She meant “loot, plunder and burn” rather than “destroy”.

My dearly departed mother used a “colorful” coloquialism to describe women like the mayor. It fits to a T.

Speaking of conspiracy....
Why didn’t Prosecutor Mosby release a statement that they were conducting a parallel investigation in the BEGINNING? Leadership would NOT allow the spark to ignite.

Any chance you’ll turn “What I Saw At The Coup” into a full length novel?

I Certainly Used The Wrong Phrase': Baltimore Mayor Regrets Space To Destroy Comment [VIDEO] Unlikely. If you listen liberals will inevitably tell you exactly what they mean.

The majority in this country speak American English. Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake obviously speaks Ebonics. So yeah, I can understand how her words were misinterpreted.
I think she was saying that by giving the peaceful protesters room to protest, they also gave the unpeaceful protesters room to destroy.
Of course, I am trying to translate a language i do not speak into something I can..... Or something.

Now she admits, sort of, what she was denying. It is video and very clear. That she lied, she should resign. The community business owners, especially those that lost because of her actions should be at the front of the line demanding her resignation.

She should have already resigned. Liberals have no shame. Lying is easy when there is no conscience to nag you.

I do believe I read somewhere that CVS is at least partially owned by Soros who had to have a vested interest in all this destruction. If true, doubt seriously if they will be suing anyone.

It’s not the words she said at the press conference, it’s the orders she gave the police. And those orders were let them destroy.
Spit.

1) How much food do they grow inside the beltway?
For all practical purposes, none. Zip, zero, nada ... Guess what? For practical purposes, they don't produce any drinking water or electric power or natural gas inside the beltway, either. That's sure gonna be fun in August.
2) What happens when free food stops coming into the cities?
What happens when WATER stops coming into the cities? What happens when the power goes down, and doesn't come back up any time soon?
How many gibsmedats will live long enough to try looting the 'burbs and the country?
