Doesn’t seem to work for Chicago.
Or Philly, or Atlanta, or New York, ...... (I’m just guessing)
She reminds me of that other idiot mayor, Ray Nagin. Dumber than a box of rocks, with all of the smart ones taken out.
Ray- somebody get off they butts and DEW sumpthin-Nagin what a GENIUS!!
Ehh, what a maroon!
Who would have guessed that prosecuting six police officers on charges that are at least partially invented and clearly overstated would raise crime rates? Who would have guessed that the mayor and police chief encouraging rioting and looting would also encourage crime? This is like each week’s bad news on job creation - totally unexpected.
LOL maybe thats what happens when you tell people in your city that its OK to have space to DESTROY it..not like it wasn’t already destroyed I mean look around..Baltimore was already a cesspool before the riots, now its officially done..I think the past month 30 people have been killed in Baltimore, but hey, its black on black crime so its all good
Yes. Shit in (office), shit out on the streets.
And the Dems don’t give a shit about anything except power and perks.
Ive never heard any one in an official capacity actually ENCOURAGE law breakers before this moronic mayorette!!
let us not overlook the lThe Wrong Revrunt Al Sharpton’s great Contibutions to the destruction of both social order and personal property!!!
Dumb, dumb, dumb. She deliberately told the “mob” that they rule, not law enforcement, not rule of law ... the mob rules in Baltimore.
Reap what you sew, stupids.
Oops, sow ... :)
Come August,,,maybe July...such statements are going to get even more convoluted ...backwards and more ...stupid
I will actually be slightly surprised if this country survives this summer ...
Obama promised “Change”, and government officials cheering for criminals is one of the many changes he delivered.
Mosbyville emerging...
change indeed...a VERY Fundamental Change indeed
I sorta like it Before the Change myself
Then they will be cursed with “BLIND STUPIDITY”. Better yet, this will give OBAMA the opportunity to deputize all these “GANG BANGERS”. With these deputized “GANG BANGERS” like the “CRIPS” and the “BLOODS” put in charge, there will be an exodus of normal citizens.
