Baltimore Residents Blame Record-High Murder Rate On Lower Police Presence

For the third year in a row, Baltimore, Md., has had more than 300 murders, reaching a new record of murders per number of residents in 2017.

Some residents attribute the high murder rate to relaxed police patrols in the city following high-profile cases of police brutality. Officers have backed off in neighborhoods, like the one where Freddie Gray was arrested.

If it were ‘racial’ there wouldn’t be so many Black people who are doing so well. Everything you mentioned is a cultural issue.

your research coincides with what I read either here on FR or elsewhere....that if you get shot, there is a 50% chance that you'll get shot again, OR ,have shot at someone previously...

vicious circle....

not that its right, but what can we do?..they refuse to act civilized..

the major problem is when their violence impacts peaceful, law abiding people......

I say comply with BLM’s request and pull the police out of every black ghetto toilet in America...then sit back and watch these people kill each other off.

That's for the people who get a tax refund from the gov'ment even though they don't have any income. For a chunk of your return money, they'll give you $$$ FAST so you can go buy your dope TODAY...

They have government income that white privelege provides them. What they don't have is income tax. Just lots of child tax credits which gives them mo money to spend on malt liquor, nails, and bling.

Well cry me a river; you asswipes hate the cops, want them out of your neighborhoods, and prosecute them for doing their jobs.
Now your crying just because they try to stay away from your feral neighborhoods?
Hell even I wouldn’t try entering your tribal lands without a gunship.

Separate state?
I hope you said that in jest.
The only real solution is to look at what they call themselves “African-American”.
Obviously (at least in my mind) they put Africa first, perhaps they should all just go back to their homeland.
A ship or plane ticket does not cost that much.

It would be too easy to blame the actual murderers I guess.

They bitch when there are cops around and blame them for everything.
They bitch when there aren’t cops around and blame them for everything.

I see a pattern of stupidity here.
