I guess the unemployment rate in Baltimore is so low that they don’t need an infusion of cash in the area by the production crew. Those drug dealers know what’s best for the people living in those areas, plus it’s nice to know the dealers have the support of local gov’t and the police.

The two thugs made a fundamental mistake. They should have said the $50,000 was for reparations. Natalie Portman is a huge liberal. So I’m sure she would have coughed up the money. Heck, she might have even given them part ownership in the movie.

Anything less would have been hypocritical on Portman‘s part.

The drug dealers are branching out into a new business - shakedowns. I’m sure it will catch on in New York, DC and Philly.

Liberal Hollywood types being extorted by ghetto thugs. Hummmmm! The liberal Hollywood mindset will argue that the people on the set were disrespecting the black thugs; the thugs have been disenfranchised by the rich white folk and therefore, the thugs have every right to extort $50K from the rich white folks.

Makes perfect sense to me! /s

The well earned fruits of democrat overloads running the plantations.

The behavior in Baltimore is an "outlier" with respect to how Democrats run cities. Just look at model cities like Chicago, New York, LA, Portland, Seattle, and...oh, wait a minute...

Apple TV+ show Lady in the Lake...

At the risk of exposing my naivete, does this show have something in common with King Arthur and the Excalibur sword?

Lady in the Lake is a Raymond Chandler story, made into a classic noir movie. It stars Robert Montgomery and Audrey Totter.

Remaking it with Negroes in the Baltimore ghetto is laughable. Natalie Portman is as featherweight as they come—a talentless twinkie nothing who got her start through family ties to Hollywood financiers.

They do this to ordinary tax-paying Americans. Why not do it to privileged Hollywood asswipes?

I think a cruise missile with a W80-1 set to max (150KT) should do it.

A demonstration of who clearly controls this once-fine city that has devolved into a sewer ... a dangerous sewer at that.

Probably Mexican drug cartel gangsters. That sounds like the SOP you find in Mexico.

It’s only fair.

The Apple+ production was interfering with their business and sales, so, the $50,000 demanded was to recoup the amount of sales lost.

Since crime is legal now, the drug dealers’ demands must be respected.
