1. Baltimore’s knife laws are shockingly stupid.
2. Criminally charging two cops without checking the law they were alleged to have misapplied is shockingly stupid.
3. If there are valid charges in there, or if there should have been valid charges, weakening the real case by including bogus, politically-motivated charges is shockingly stupid.
In short, these events fit in nicely with Maryland’s liberal traditions.
Could the state that nurtured Nancy Pelosi just blocks away from these riots have done any different?
