BALTIMORE (AP) -- Baltimore reached a grim milestone on Friday, three months after riots erupted in response to the death of Freddie Gray in police custody: With 43 homicides in July, the city has seen more bloodshed in a single month than it has in 43 years.
The 43rd recorded homicide was Jermaine Miller, 18, who was shot in the head just before noon the day before.

Jermian Miller, age 18, was the most recent homicide. Need I ask?? But, but, don’t “Black lives matter” ?? And, BTW, where was the Klan?
AP is behind the curve, Bal’mer reached #44 for July at midnight last night, #45 at noon today.
189 homicides for 2015, the Last 100 Homicides list goes back only to May 14th.
Their 2015 homicide rate used to place them safely between Rwanda and the Congo, but July’s carnage bumped the rate to ~30.3, well above the Congo and just behind South Africa and Columbia.
I knew they could break the record. Last month was so close, but they did it! Pathetic as it is.
If some of these victims were named Cecil, someone might care enough to try to stop it.

Mayor Mouth Breather must be proud of her accomplishment.
We enjoyed it as well. But the clear and present danger that the denizens of the "hood" may come boiling out to overwhelm you and yours always exists.
Times have changed. They used to say "going down is a crime."
Send him and his crossbow to the worst neighborhood Baltimore at night. We’ll see the great white hunter lasts.

From the Mayor to the Council to the State Attorney..
why now?? Why so many dead?
I would submit that democrat control is a factor, the root cause is a feral black subculture that thrives on killing
