After Baltimore descended into rioting in April, police officers and other city staffers have filed 169 workers compensation claims with city government, reporting various injuries, a budget official said Tuesday..

As a result, the city expects to pay out $1.7 million, according to Bob Cenname, Baltimore’s deputy budget director.

“Does the “M” on his belt buckle stand for Moocher?”

Could be street gang related symbol.

It’s not working so well as the recent epidemic of murders in Baltimore attests.”

Oh, come on. It's a letter in the alphabet of multiple languages. The "M" could also be that his last name is Monroe, or his first name is Martin. What biased thinking lead you to assume the worst? In fact, why even bother to speculate when there are thousands of possibilities? Sheesh.
